would’ve liked more about their family/lived experience, or from the perspective of harry himself. a more collaborative piece between the author and harry might have touched me more (like the final few pages did).

jacinderr's review against another edition

funny informative reflective slow-paced

2.75

I listened to the graphic birth scene while I was having cold sweat diarrhea and those two things combined created a truly cinematic experience.

Other than that this book was too smart for me, I enjoyed parts and some bits really stuck with me but it came off too pretentious and academic at times. Very much from a white woman's perspective. Don’t regret reading it tho
