dark emotional funny hopeful inspiring reflective sad medium-paced

5.0

A perfect book for girls who grew up with fathers but not dads, for girls who had more identity crises by 20 than most have in a lifetime, for girls who were betrayed by their families, and for girls who love their families despite all that.

Update on 05.09.2024: I did not reread this book for a long time in fear that it would not be as powerful the second time around. It was an unfounded concern. Beautiful once again.

 - Am I the last queer person on earth to read LONG LIVE THE TRIBE OF FATHERLESS GIRLS? Maybe. Am I glad I finally did it? My goodness, yes.
- This book is incredible. Madden is detailing some horrific events, and yet this book is so tender, both toward her younger self and her family.
- At first I wasn't sure about the vignette style of storytelling, with all the jumping around in time. I'm glad I stuck with it, though, because the way Madden's story unwinds at the end of the book is spectacular.
