Özet
 “Wickedly funny and heartstoppingly vulnerable…every page twinkles with brilliance.” —Refinery29

Perfect for fans of Samantha Irby and Trick Mirror, a hilarious, whip-smart collection of personal essays exploring the intersection of queerness, pop culture, the internet, and identity, introducing one of the most undeniably original new voices today.

Jill Gutowitz’s life—for better and worse—has always been on a collision course with pop culture. There’s the time the FBI showed up at her door because of something she tweeted about Game of Thrones. The pop songs that have been the soundtrack to the worst moments of her life. And of course, the pivotal day when Orange Is the New Black hit the airwaves and broke down the door to Jill’s own sexuality. In these honest examinations of identity, desire, and self-worth, Jill explores perhaps the most monumental cultural shift of our lifetimes: the mainstreaming of lesbian culture. Dusting off her own personal traumas and artifacts of her not-so-distant youth she examines how pop culture acts as a fun house mirror reflecting and refracting our values—always teaching, distracting, disappointing, and revealing us.

Girls Can Kiss Now is a fresh and intoxicating blend of personal stories, sharp observations, and laugh-out-loud humor. This timely collection of essays helps us make sense of our collective pop-culture past even as it points the way toward a joyous, uproarious, near—and very queer—future.

Eleştirmen yorumları

"Author/narrator Jill Gutowitz’s collection of reflective essays is funny, insightful, and very queer — in a good way. Her memories of her younger years in the ‘90s and ‘00s bring some sadness and, one imagines, healing for her and others. Her storytelling is engaging and often self-deprecating. Reminiscences about the importance of the television show “Orange Is the New Black” and the acceptance of Sapphic fashion — and how they and other iconic moments in pop culture over the last 30 years have transformed the public view of lesbianism — will resonate even with straight folks. No one else could convey her personal vulnerability with the finesse she does. Listeners will find themselves thinking of Gutowitz as a dear friend they need to invite over again."

I have never written a proper book review until this one, but after a few seconds had passed since I’d finished Girls Can Kiss Now I knew I simply had to. What an incredible and accurate (no seriously, it’s almost slightly unnerving how accurate) depiction of what it means to be a girl that likes girls during this era. There is no better author for this time capsule either, Jill’s voice and opinions are equal parts a breath of fresh air and exactly what you’ve always been thinking. This book is new and exciting and resurrects the notion that novelty can still exist whilst simultaneously being familiar and inherently comforting. She is the kind of author that makes you feel like you’ve made a friend; a rare and special skill. What a great gift to the world and to our book shelves.
