Delicious! You cannot call yourself a fan of this genre if you haven't read this book and its four companion books: Beebo Brinker, Women in the Shadows, and Journey to a Woman. This five-book epic is the definition of dyke drama, complete with Eisenhower-era chinos, real gin martinis, beatniks and bombshells. And if you ever wondered what really goes on in a sorority, you won't want to miss Odd Girl Out. Trust me, you don't have to be a lez to succumb to this sinful slice of self-indulgence.
