Plutôt science-fiction, fantasy ou des livres ouvrant de nouveaux recoins de mon cerveau. Je lis en français et en anglais et commente en général dans les langues respectives.

How to Be Gay (2012) 2 stars

How to be gay

2 stars

DNF. Gave up. While it was interesting at the beginning, the book starts to dig deeper and deeper in a gay analysis of an old movie (Mommie Dearest) for which I have no interest. While a bit might be interesting, I stopped after 5 chapters about this film. While I was expecting a sociological study of the gay male, this ends up being more a literal analysis of an opus through the eyes of gay men than about gay men themselves. Stopped after 300 pages, couldn't pursue any longer
