The stories are all captivating and interesting but I wasn’t a fan of her writing style and voice.
I really wanted to like this more than I did tbh

Most of us are just trying to find our own unique (possibly fucked up) ways to survive. That's what her essays have shown me. As a queer woman also struggling to survive, Id like to thank Lauren for sharing her story. All we want to be is heard, and understood, and I believe by sharing something so personal with the world, that might be what she wished for as well.
(I added content warnings, but like, it's someone's life and I don't really think it can be categorized into boxes but I added the ones I think could be genuinely triggering. Just keep an open mind)
