This book reminded me why I love memoirs. It’s a very important and impactful story, but it’s also very gross and graphic (definitely look into trigger warnings if you think you might need them). But it has to be. It was very educational about a place/way of life that I’m not very familiar with (which is why I love memoirs). My only critique is that I wished we got more at the end after he *kinda spoiler, maybe?* left/went to school. I wanted to see him happy (although, it’s true that that wasn’t the point of the book). Also, I understand that this is about the author’s real life so of course he gets to choose which parts of his life he wants to keep private.
Overall, highly recommend.
