Why this must be read:

Frannie and Meg have been together eighteen months, they live together, and yet Frannie still struggles with the idea she's worthy. Lalejandra writes these two women sensitively and realistically, and you just want them to work out.

"Work is important to both of us," says Meg, and she sounds incredibly defensive. "And --"

"We just need to be together," says Frannie, and for the first time really feels it. Meg's not ashamed of her -- just . . . private. And . . . what does it matter if Meg calls her Francesca at work?

Frannie tucks the revelation away in her brain for further examination at a later date and tunes back into what Meg is saying.
