"I could not finish this book. I was amazed at how sad and desperate it was for attention. This made it even less attractive.
I've read Jong's poetry and kind of liked it. This work, though seems like it's written by a hormonal teenager. This is the kind of thing you read when you're a fifteen-year-old virgin who is desperate to know about what the non-virgins are doing as a way to live vicariously.
"I do not like this book. I tried to finish it years ago but I just couldn't take it anymore! Bessie Smith was a cool musician, it's true. But you don't want to take advice from a woman who sings a song about being with a man who hits her anymore than you want to take love advice from Billie Holiday songs! The music is fantastic, the message, not so good. Man, this book was ANNOYING! I just cannot TAKE these whiny women whining all the time about how much their lives and marriages suck while they enjoy being humiliated and embarrassed by random men in tight leather pants. CUT IT OUT!"
"Constant whine fest. Too many dated references to things I didn't feel like looking up. It really is a novel of obsession, not a novel about obsession. I see the difference now."
