Baby Be-Bop

I vaguely remember reading [b:Weetzie Bat 44353 Weetzie Bat (Weetzie Bat, #1) Francesca Lia Block https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1392416825s/44353.jpg 946181] when I was in high school...I especially remember one of my friends thinking it was one of the greatest books ever written and I more or less agreed, but I remember absolutely nothing of it now. I don't even think I have it marked as read on GR!This book stands alone though, which is good because I don't remember anything about Dirk. I'll probably pick up Weetzie Bat again, because I like Block's style of writing. It's like if an optimistic hippie designed the world while high, and you were listening to them describe while also being high. Everything is twee and zen and smells of patchouli. All of the main characters are pretty and well-meaning and have absolutely fabulous names. I wouldn't necessarily want to live there...I'm glad the book was short because it is rather precious. It was the perfect length to live in Block's cutesy world.And of course I love a story about a gay kid.
