Charitably, I’m going to assume that Lady Fitz-Waterford hadn’t actually read the book-or its famously depressing ending-and that her intentions had been supportive, not cautionary. Radclyffe Hall had been born to a wealthy, respectable British family and so had I she grew up in the English countryside and so did I she was a writer and so was I. I didn’t actually have a Sapphic lover at that point-I was living in the Connecticut suburbs and raising four children largely on my own, which left me a little short on time-but the principle of the matter was that I was a lesbian and, as such, would probably need a companion guide, an instruction manual to show me how to do it properly. Anyway, let’s assume for the sake of argument that Lady Fitz-Waterford sent me The Well of Loneliness as a gift when she heard from my mother that I’d told my husband I was leaving him for a life of Sapphic love.

Here is a quick description and cover image of book High Fidelity written by Nick Hornby which was published in 1995–. Brief Summary of Book: High Fidelity by Nick Hornby It had zero impact on the story. I did not find the characters as compelling as the poorly written ones in 50. The virgin in this story was never enslaved (literally or figuratively) and the BDSM stuff completely dropped out. (and I went to grad school where I was trained to do that!) This is way better written than 50 Shades, but ultimately, it didn’t work for me overall. From the story tag line, you’d think it is parody, but it did not read like a parody and I did not detect anything that was a comment on all the issues of 50. It’s also 50 Shades fanfic and/or a retelling. What I think: It’s well written and not very long. Why I bought it: Saw it being tweeted as it was read by someone whose opinion I respect. What I think: I’ve read this several times. Why I bought it: From a discussion at Dear Author.

Whereas most espionage books dealing with the real world tend to focus on single remarkable individuals, Carol Leonnig takes a broader approach, exploring and dissecting the American Secret Service and its work. However, as those who have taken the time to explore the work of intelligence services around the globe know it’s a field rife with incompetence and failures, a topic Carol Leonnig explores in the United States in her non-fiction espionage book titled Zero Fail. Thanks in no small part to popular culture and selective declassification of information, we, the public, have largely formed a perception of the American Secret Service as being one of the best in the world.
