Tipping the Velvet by Sarah Waters
5.0

Quality lesbian fiction! Let me say it again: quality lesbian fiction! I have so much trouble finding good lesbian fiction because it all seems to be Harlequin romances with f/f pairings, but this book was nothing like that at all. The style and voice of the narrator felt extremely real -- it was difficult to believe the book was fiction! I liked that she was imperfect and got into messes and dealt with her problems, and the various settings and stories kept me intrigued all the way through. Definitely recommended.
