good lord. i very rarely say this but as much as i enjoyed this book i never want to read it again
Cruising: An Intimate History of a Radical Pastime by Alex Espinoza

Go to review page

this was quite disappointing... i didn't feel that it succeeded as a history of cruising or as a memoir. because the author tried to do both, it felt quite disorganized... again, i really wish that this wasn't pitched as a history of cruising overall because i got the sense that the author's research wasn't super comprehensive. lesbians are mentioned in passing, which seemed incredibly silly to me as lesbians have most definitely cruised. at one point, he mentions 'female impersonators'. much to think about...

twitter has been awful for lgbt literature and trans people. simplistic, badly written, t4t if it didn't slay. you have to have a LOT of faith in your book to allude to jackson, lorde, and cronenberg
