All you really need to know about this book is that the main character calls her vagina her “kittycat.” If you can handle that, you might be able to do this. I was not impressed by the onslaught of gay jokes (as a lesbian myself), nor the absurd characters who would never truly exist. I get what Davis was trying to do. It’s noble and real. It was at times too on the nose and at others way too obscure. And my God…. The lengthy descriptions of clothing are unnecessary and distracting!!!
