3/2/18 review of novel Bobby Blanchard, Lesbian Gym Teacher, by Monica Nolan

Here is the link to my Twitter thread review of the novel Bobby Blanchard, Lesbian Gym Teacher, by Monica Nolan.

The thread gives a summary of the novel and some background on Monica Nolan and her Lesbian Career-Girl series. The thread discusses how the novel plays with detective pulp conventions, its use of two mysteries instead of one, the plot and psychological parallels in the story, the way the novel plays with both heterosexual and lesbian story tropes, the sex scenes in the story, some of the life lessons of the story, and some of my criticisms of the novels.

The tweets in some of my threads have been twisted out of chronological order by Twitter's platform. This thread's coherency is moderately affected. My apologies.
