Homebodies
by Tembe Denton-Hurst
Ugh. This was a solid 3 star book but it got .25 extra for black lesbian representation. I have discovered books about characters moping without their lives together are not for me (think MYORR). Of course Micky was living unemployed and broken up (?) but the weeks of her moping around and doing nothing were not it for me. I felt like the book didn’t have any plot. One thing about queer women is that they will always go back to their first ex situationship. Micky’s decisions were aggravating to witness. Did not do it for me. Didn’t resonate with the media heavy aspect of it either. Elaine calls Micky not because she actually missed her and is concerned about her life but because she hadn’t been posting on socials? Can we live without technology? Maybe I am just cynical.
