This book had the perfect amount of nostalgia for a millennial. I loved hearing about all of the different things that that the author felt were "gay coded" (or that were actually gay) in a time where I was growing up watching and listening to them as well. There were a few chapters I couldn't personally relate to because I didn't interact with the discussed media, but I was still at least aware of the basics surrounding those topics - enough that I could still enjoy that section of the book. The 2000s Made Me Gay was a fairly lighthearted read that I could easily listen to or read again.
