I'm always happy to read a book about messy lesbians; I think too often queer relationships are watered down and perfect in fiction to make them easier to digest for straight people. I enjoyed the writing style, and I'm always drawn to very unlikable protagonists, like Sasha. But I found myself fairly bored in some parts, and I think it has to do with the focus being zeroed-in on a white femme and the white lesbians around her, and while I understand that that's the point, it didn't really go anywhere for me.
