a moving story depicting abuse in a queer relationship, that i found both comforting and truly heartbreaking.
the transparency of the story and its beautiful writing style were simply beyond fascinating.

WOW. Read this book on a whim, based on the description in Libby and the availability of the audiobook. It felt so important and profound, and sucked me right it. I can’t believe that it was only 5 hours long, it felt like so much more, but those hours also flew by.

This is an incredibly innovative & well written autobiography! It is touching, heartbreaking, inspiring, sad, funny and warm. Not to mention an important subject to get out into our quarantined American society. The book could have concluded with some run of the mill “happy ending” but instead this author chose to give voice to all the other stories out there like hers. Unbelievably unique. You won’t be disappointed.
