She was the brain, the sparkle, the gay rebel of the sorority, and wonder of wonders, she chose Laura as her roommate. That was how it began. Suddenly they were alone on an island of forbidden bliss…. Here is the first novel in the Beebo Brinker Chronicles, the classic 1950s love stories from the queen of lesbian fiction. "Odd Girl Out begins the saga of Laura, off on her own at college, appallingly shy and terminally polite. Laura meets Beth, whose brash straightforwardness and friendly attitude take the younger woman by storm, leading into an equally stormy affair." —Metro Times

Featured Article: Audible Essentials—The Top 100 LGBTQIA+ Listens of All Time
While LGBTQIA+ creators have been around for millennia, it’s only recently that we’ve been hearing more diverse, more queer-authored, and more queer-performed stories about the entire spectrum of LGBTQIA+ experiences and identities. This list—just like the community it represents—is meant to be fluid. But most importantly, it’s meant to celebrate and reflect on the issues faced by LGBTQIA+ people everywhere.

What did you love best about Odd Girl Out?
Spoil Alert***********************That Laura declares loud and proud that she is "Queer" and leaves for New York without Beth, That Laura says to 1950's society, you be damn, I can never marry a man, be with a man, I there for must leave this farce and make my way as best as I can no matter what my family thinks, what society thinks, what lumps society hands ,me I must be true to myself. OK so it was a little Payton Place story and Beth stays for Charlie, but Laura had the gut to know enough to leave.Who was your favorite character and why?
Laura, she come off as child like at first, but as the story goes along you find out she is the strong one in the story. I liked her best.What about Kate Rudd’s performance did you like?
Good tone, good inflection, Good dramatic pauses, Just good over all reading of the book. And a pleasant voice.If you could rename Odd Girl Out, what would you call it?
The old story, He gets her in the end.Any additional comments?
I got so tried of lesbian stories written before 1975 that either end with one of the woman in the arms of a man, or with the one of the woman killing themselves or both. It's like you can't have a happy lesbian while one girl does end up in the arms of a guy, the other isn't suicidal in fact you kind of feel hopeful Hopeful for her. And since this is book one in the Bebo Beeker series the novel follow Laura into New York. I kind can't wait to listen to the rest of the series. I read Odd Girl Out and Bebo Beeker years ago back in the 1980's. But I didn't realize they were part of a series. And I read them a bit apart. I thought they were OK but in the mid/early 80 there were a lot of good author to choose from. Not as many as now but I remember reading Rita Mae Brown, Claire McNab, and Sandra Dryer like they were gold. Brown actually wrote books like In Her Day Ruby Fruit Jungle and her best novel Six of One. Which is Awesome. Then she decided to write real novels. Whatever that means. But if you haven't read Six of One find an old copy because it's out of print and enjoy.Good story for a 50's pulp novel.

The discovery and coming to terms with your own sexual preferences and those of the people who share your life is tough in any era. Peel away the overlay generations societal expectations and you are left dealing with the feeling of not being normal and fear of being treated negatively.
I would recommend speed reading through three non Beth/Laur sections.
Holds up well for being a 50 year old piece of pulp fiction
