Books like Rent Girl

Terrible, terrible, terrible. Why did it happen? What makes it possible? This book has no point, it barely tells a story, and it is ridiculously aloof. Like talking to a coked up drag queen, smearing mascara all over your sensible sweater and gushing out their life story, morbidly fascinating, but you just want it to be over. Michelle Tea once again succeeds in convincing the world that yes, she is a vulnerable lesbian badass. And yes, there are people around her that do drugs and don't give a shit about anyone. Blah blah blah. I am so fucking sick of being a part of a group of people that constantly reinforce the stereotypes that plague their group. I hate the casual tone of this book. Like a scared little girl that wants to tell you that she is scared about confused, but instead says "Yeah, I had sex the other night. I didn't even come." Quit being casual, quit being self-involved, write something that has a purpose. So transparent. Not an enjoyable read. Grow up. Grow grow grow grow grow up. This book made me feel strange about the world. So full of pretend glamour, so lacking in the honesty it is praised for being full of. It is a lie, like most art, but this lie does not tell the truth. Terrible read.
