Very entertaining, especially for readers who know anything about lesbian culture, movies, or Judaism -- and hilarious for those who know about all three.
LibraryThing member lquilter
A delightful book, as are all of Ellen Galford's books. Laugh-out-loud funny.
LibraryThing member mahallett
the occasional laugh but really too silly.
