Tipping The Velvet

Wow. What a story!

At a shallow glance, it's lesbian erotica, and the 4 and 5 star reviews convinced me to read on despite not being the authors target audience. I'm so glad I did. Everything you think it is, it is, but also not.

Nancy, the main character, is so lovable but often unlikeable. It's a coming of age/love story that you can relate to but also not relate to at all. It's a bit slow in the beginning, but by the end I was up all night just to see what happens next. It's raunchy, but also sweet. Above all, it's beautifully written.

Loved it.
