4.5

This feels like it should be required reading for every young queer person. It really expresses the importance of breaking the utopian lense with which we regard queer relationships. It feels especially poignant to me as someone who sees herself as less desirable and has accepted whatever attention she could get in the past.

dark emotional informative reflective sad medium-paced

4.0

Such an important book for the queer literary canon. Intermingles memoir with history which breaks up the sorta poetic style of writing very nicely. I’m knocking down half a star bc I didn’t like the narrator sorry it was literally the author but like jdhdhhd
