Greedy: Notes from a Bisexual Who Wants Too Much by Jen Winston was a narrative read about the author's experiences as a bisexual woman. This review is short because the book didn't have a ton of facts, but it had a couple quotes any person who was an insecure middle-schooler can relate to, which I've included below. Overall, it would have been nice if this book had done a biological and social analysis of bisexuality in America. It read like a memoir which, for me, was just ok. I'm still glad I read it. Thanks, Lexie, for the recommendation.
Miscellaneous quotes:
On the importance of place representation: "Queer bars give structure to queer communities, while literally putting those communities on the map," (p17).
"If we only focus on equality, we'll only end up achieving assimilation," (p133).
