Summary: It just wouldn't end!
Review: Yes, the book just kept going on. It was well written, but uninteresting. I stuck with it up to the bittersweet ending and was left disappointed. It seemed to me like i was watching somebody's uninteresting life. Like I whipped out my binoculars and looked at the window and just watched all the boring people for about 10 years. There were some nice little parts and the ending was satisfying in the grand scheme of it all and it would no doubt be a Lesbian classic had it been written in the 1950's or something. But in this time, its just monotonous. The love story was barely existent and was really just a buddy book about two outcasts, a lesbian who wants the other to be lesbian and a straight girl who everyone thinks is a lesbian. Yes, she does end up going that way, but only after many years of befriending the other woman. You get the distinct impression the young straight girl truly loved her friend and needed her...just not that way. And in the end, out of love, she gave her friend what she'd been wanting all along.

Now, i could be completely off the mark, I am a straight male. Just my opinion.
