I cried in the intro and that really just set the tone for the whole book. I feel almost overwhelmed with how incredible it is to hear Elliot's story this way. I can't recommend the audiobook enough; hearing it in his own voice is a beautiful thing.
(Seriously check the content warnings though, this is not an easy one)

I love EP and appreciate his vulnerability in this piece. However, the majority of the novel was challenging. Pedophelia, non consensual physical advances, parental abuse/neglect, parental abandonment/narcissism… yowza was this a potluck of triumph and pain. Not what I had in mind going into it, but I’m grateful for the read. It was really nice being able to trust his account of things so easily; he’s able to hold the good and the imperfect about himself and his choices so earnestly and mindfully compassionate that it was clear the work he’s done. Bravo for lovely people
