hoping this will be engrossing enough to distract me from being sick

This was really good!! Wow

I really enjoyed this, and was very impressed with how well the verse worked! Real "if you've read Nevada and Detransition Baby..." energy (although personally I enjoyed it more than the latter)

Too scary for me

I didn't think this was one of the stronger books in the series

So pleased to be here

The movie is better.

Dryly funny and endearing. I read this in one sitting last night and I've been thinking about how fun it was throughout the day

I've had this sitting around for a while and I'm so glad I finally got around to reading it

This is one of the few books I feel like I can re-read forever; this will be my third pass

Somewhat surprisingly for a book randomly found in a thrift store, this was interesting, accessible, and short (about 130 pages minus appendices). It was a fun way to meditate on ins and out of trying to understand people in history, in general and specifically in regard to morality and sexuality, as a person who can't escape their own subconscious contemporary context and also as a person with a very conscious perspective.

I have now been informed that there is a Verhoeven movie based on this book??

This is really fun so far!

I wish I had a specific label for the type of nonfiction this is, where it's a mix of memoire, thinking about ideas, and evocative factual passages? At any rate, enjoying this so far and I have learned something about some artists already so that's cool
