Can you say "lesbian cliche?",
By A Customer
This review is from: Between Girlfriends (Hardcover)
I wasn't as impressed with this book as some others have been. The characters and the friendships were under-developed and the entire book was dialogue. And how many times can the author say the word "lesbian" on each page? I wouldn't recommend running out for this one unless you're looking for a quick read filled with cliches, stereotypes, and old jokes.

Elizabeth Has Done it Again!,
By renaynay "renaynay" (Tallahassee, Florida United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Between Girlfriends (Hardcover)
This was the book I was waiting for: a lighthearted, honest farce about love from the lesbian perspective. Elizabeth Dean has written a novel that breaks the perceptions of the "typical" lesbian, who is usually a grassroots womyn who has a hankering for the Indigo Girls. Not that those women don't exist or that there's something wrong with that, but there is another side to the female-oriented culture. How about woman who is cosmopolitan, aggressively feminine and who'd rather listen to Celine Dion than k.d. lang? Those women do exist and Elizabeth does a great job portraying them and breaking down the highs and lows of finding love. Enter Gracy, Parker, Blair, and Lindsey, four women who meet at a party and become instantly bonded. They share their trials about meeting women, being in love -- and staying there. Gracy, a freelance writer, is the sensible narrator who guides us through the novel with ease. As a writer, she intersperses her columns between chapter, which deal with contemporary romantic issues as "Sex or Love: Which Comes First?" Overall, the book is truly hilarious, especially a certain scene with an overzealous activist who confronts the girls. Honestly, this is the type of book that should be made into a TV show: "Sex and the City" -- lesbian style. It would definitely get great ratings.

Don't take this book seriously,
By
This review is from: Between Girlfriends (Mass Market Paperback)
If you are looking for a serious look at lesbian life in the 21st Century, don't buy this book. If you want a chance to laugh at sterotypes and enjoy a lighthearted book, buy it.
