Book Reviews of Rubyfruit Jungle

This book is required reading for all lesbians. Rita Mae is a fabulous author and I dearly loved this book.

Brilliantly written, hilariously funny yet tragic at times. A super read!

Love this one. It has been part of my collection for many years but I have decided to set it free.

This is an excellent "coming-out" book. It has great character development, great humor, and is sensitive and honest in examining an unspoken diversity in a coming of age girl.

Excellent coming of age story about a rural southern girl discovering her sexuality and herself.

I really enjoyed this book, until the last third when the heroine came to NYC. Then the dialogue became unrealistic and the protagonist became just plain whiny.

This was a very, very good book! I was able to read it in two sittings, but not because it was short; it was very hard to put down! It was somewhat unrealistic at times, but a wonderful book all the same.

Quite an interesting book. I really did enjoy it and I have already recommended it to a co-worker who I know will enjoy it even more than I did.

The protagonist has a courageous spirit despite personal obstacles stemmming from birth, socioeconomics, and sexual orientation. Empowering book for females.

This book brought to the forefront the story of growing up lesbian in America. Molly Bolt, adopted and raised by a poor Southern couple, spends her childhood in discovery of her sexual self and then blowing apart the accepted norms of sexuality. A good read.
