About this item

Annalise Finch is content - she has a job she enjoys, lives close to her family and friends, and spends most Wednesday nights drinking wine with her grandma. According to her grandma, though, she has lost her sparkle, and the only solution is to join a site to hook up with other women. The only problem (aside from a meddling grandma with a dirty mind) is Annalise doesn’t like women. At least, that’s what she always thought, but when she meets Brinley Adams, she starts to question everything.

Brinley Adams loves women, but not commitment. She is more than happy picking up ladies at the bar she works at to have a little fun. When a hot blonde walks into her bar and completely fails to go home with the woman she came with, what choice does Brinley have but to take her under her wings?

Their arrangement is perfect - Brinley will teach Annalise everything she knows about pleasing a woman, and in turn, Brinley gets to have a little fun herself. Since neither of them are interested in any sort of commitment, what could possibly go wrong? It’s not like this is a romantic comedy.

This was a super cute romp and i likednthe break from traditional 3rd act shenanigans, it was done it a way that kept it interesting. The whole story is cute and fun and engaging. It gives all the right feel all the way through, and has the rare quality of having zero unlikable characters. A great cozy cuffing season reading.

5.0 out of 5 stars An Absolute Gem of a Story - A Perfect Blend of Humor and Heart!
Reviewed in the United States on July 31, 2024
I absolutely loved *A Lesbian's Guide to Women* by Erica Lee, narrated by the fantastic Lori Prince. This audiobook was an absolute joy from start to finish, blending humor, steam, and heart in a way that left me smiling long after it ended.

From the moment I heard the syllabus and the recommended reading, I knew I was in for a treat. The clever inclusion of these elements set the tone for the book and added a delightful layer of authenticity to the story. I even went ahead and bought the e-books that were on that list—I couldn't resist!

Lori Prince did an incredible job bringing this story to life. Her narration perfectly captured the insecurities of Annalise as she navigated her journey of self-discovery, and it was a joy to hear her grow into her confidence and embrace her sexual identity. Prince's performance added depth and warmth to Annalise's character, making her journey feel even more personal and real.

Brinley’s character was another highlight for me. The author did a fantastic job portraying her confidence and swagger—I have to admit, I have a huge crush on her! She gave me strong 76th Street Girl vibes, and I couldn’t get enough of her charm and charisma.

The secondary characters and family dynamics were wonderfully done as well. Grandma was an absolute riot, providing many laugh-out-loud moments that added to the overall warmth and humor of the story.

One of the best things about this book is how it subverts typical romance tropes. There’s no third-act breakup, just a genuine, feel-good love story that celebrates the joy of finding yourself and finding love. It’s refreshing and makes the story all the more enjoyable.

*This will definitely be a go-to reread and relisten for me*. It's such a feel-good story, with the perfect balance of steam, humor, and heartfelt moments. Thank you to Erica Lee for crafting such a wonderful love story, and to Lori Prince for bringing it to life so brilliantly. This audiobook is a true gem!

This is a delightful and lighthearted romance with a massive dash of spice that had me silently exclaiming "Jesus H. Christ" on numerous instances—I'm not exaggerating, I swear!

The story of "A Lesbian's Guide to Women" revolves around Annalise Finch and Brinley Adams, two women who meet at a bar after Annalise's first attempt at hooking up with a woman doesn't go as planned. Brinley, a lesbian, offers her assistance by creating a "Sapphic Sex Syllabus" to teach Annalise the art of being a woman's lover. From that point forward, a combination of humor and sensuality takes center stage!

I was hooked from the very first page! The premise of the story intrigued me, and the side-splitting wit and humor of Annalise's grandmother and her best friend, Nathalie, added so much to the entertainment factor. Also, the chemistry between Annalise and Brinley is undeniably off the charts—making their connection increasingly intense and compelling as the plot progresses. Their intimate scenes are also filled with so much subconscious pining that I thought positively adds charm to the story.

This book is really freaking awesome! I DO RECOMMEND giving it a read if you haven't already!

Talk about a dream relationship. Solid communication (with the exception of real feelings developing because it still has to be a book with conflict) great banter, perfectly crafted side characters and interactions with the MCs, the best grandma in the WORLD, and great and frequent spice scenes. I’m in love with this book and every character in it. Faves shelf is gaining a book today.

5.0 out of 5 stars Super funny and super sweet
Reviewed in the United States on May 29, 2024
So here’s the thing. Are there things you could nitpick if you take this too seriously? Yes, definitely. Grandma, you *read her diary*? But… if you take it as a lighter read and let some of those things just roll off… this book was so funny and so sweet, I thought it was fantastic.

Annalise and Brinley as people are just so freakin’ sweet. It doesn’t take very long to see how into each other they are, and how incredibly nice to each other, all while telling themselves “she’s just giving me an assignment” or eventually “we’re just friends.” Then you get to the point where Brinley drops everything to help an Annalise in need, and when Annalise more or less asks why she’s being so nice, she says “because I know you’d do the same for me.” And it’s patently true! Of course, it takes them a bit longer to figure out what that means, but it’s such a wonderful ride.

I thought grandma and Nathalie were hilarious secondary characters, again, with the caveat above. Then there were the names of the events at the bar? I thought it was great how Erica Lee name-dropped and then made fun of her own book. It took me waaaaaay too long to figure out what was going on in the first roleplay scene… and then the second, OMG they were so done for each other.

I guess I also really enjoyed how Annalise changed over the course of the book, gaining confidence, firing some excellent lines back at Brinley and Maddie, and eventually coming to understand herself in a way she definitely didn’t at the start. And then the last couple chapters, when they finally admit what’s happening, they were just so so sweet…. I think from the point Brinley talks privately to Annalise’s mom, there to the end, just wow.

I’m not sure this is quite my favorite Erica Lee (that honor still goes to And Then I Met You because I’m a glutton for punishment, and also it was awesome), but it’s definitely up there. Finally, for what it’s worth, the second time through, I liked it even more than the first. :)

This has what could have been a really cheesy setup. It didn't turn out that way, it turned out really well. Funny storyline, serious emotions, top-notch spice.
