Suicide Blonde

Summary: It will move you in a way...that makes you dislike it.
Review: This book was/is, not literature exposed to the "illiterate" for personal unjustifiable reasons, it is paced with its acception, and it is mistakingly given to all the wrong "readers." This book is only a millionth of examples to testify, exploit, how a revolution is crying, whining, and being born once again in the earlier years past the millenium; the race of the rich with the poor; who of the which, move higher and lower. Tis a book to read to give a harness to the people who dare look out that window to see the land behined the white-fenced-wooden=Barn.

Summary: Not bad
Review: This book wasnt too bad. Although I have to admit, I hadnt the slightest clue as to what it was about when I picked it up. I just saw the great cover and had to read it. I was actually surprised as to how much I enjoyed it.
Although the book was a bit short and lacked details in what I found to be crucial areas, it was still able to keep me reading. I began this journey with the main character, Jessie, and had to see how it ended.
Soon after begining the book, you realize that Jessie, a young beautiful girl, is confused and feels lost. She needs to find herself and explore her options. This leads us to jobs as a prostitute and so called friends that we never thought she would meet.
But this book goes much much deeper than a girl that is trying to find herself. But I found it to be a love story. A story in which we have all experienced. When Jessie starts to lose trust and feeling in her longterm relationship with her boyfriend, Bell, she leaves. Through advice and new flings, she finds herself trapped, and eventually finding what it is she wants.
SUICIDE BLONDE was a good, quick read. I only gave it three stars because I think it needed more history involved in it. You are left without enought information about many of the characters which is frusterating. Other that this minor detail, this book is a fun, and extremely erotic tale of a girl trying to find her place in the world.

Summary: Good prose, but spotty
Review: This is not Steinke's first novel, though at points it reads like one. Yes, the prose is luscious, intense, and at points quite brilliant, but there's nothing that quite holds it together. Themes are opened and closed with too hard a hand.

Summary: Don't bother!
Review: This short novel comes across as a rambling, loose stream of self-pity and self-loathing. Jesse, the lead character, seems overly passive, drinks through-out the novel. The brief encounters she has with the so-called San Francisco underlife are sporadic and lame. If you are looking for a good reading novel or like mild erotica, this book isn't the one.
