Lesbian Pulp Fiction

[dreiser]

Katie just discovered I have a collection of lesbian pulp novels, mostly stuff by Ann Bannon and a few others, and has been reading it all day apparently. She got so excited I gathered all of them up in a box and loaned them to her so she could read them. I just came over to her apartment after doing some random errands after work and she's totally absorbed in the books. I've already read all these books, obviously since they're mine, but she insisted on reading some out loud to me.

And now I'm convinced I really need to take her to a convention to hang out with some of my nerdier friends because based on her reading of Another Kind Of Love by Paula Christian she's a really kick ass person to read bad fanfic out loud. I'm going to make her do a dramatic reading of My Immortal fanfic now. lol. It's just necessary.

ETA: I just got done explaining about Malory Towers and The Naughtiest Girl series by Enid Blyton and now she's demanding in an obnoxiously cute manner to be loaned those books as well to read. Also? I'm super excited to learn she shares my sad love of Sweet Valley High. Although she didn't recall the tv series which I own on dvd.

I'm bringing that over for us to watch sometime soon. I just wish it had some Jessica/Lila subtext in it. I ship them so hard. Jessica is the fun twin, after all.

bwahaha but Enid Blyton's stuff is the best, especially if like me you pick it up at the impressionable age of 12 XD

Aww, that's so cute. I'm not saying that in a patronizing way. I think it's really cool that you're dating someone fun who you can share your nerdy hobbies with. :)

I love Enid Blyton! I wasn't sure how many non Brits read her, but yeah all that stuff is subtext heaven!
