2.0
The amount of times the N word was used as well as the many antisemitic comments are disgusting. Since the author added an authors note for this rerelease, I wish she would’ve addressed that.

it’s an interesting exploration of queer experiences and sexuality, but the line of taboo is very blurred and that doesn’t work in the book’s favour. with the adult/minor relationships, incest being encouraged, sexual assault perpetrated by the main character, racism and antisemitism, and the butch-phobia, it’s a lot to stomach that i’m not really sure is worth the read.

No spoilers here, but it's more than just a coming-of-age story. I loved so many of the characters, but I hurt with them too. I laughed with them and I almost cried.
Highly recommend for all those who are curious and for all my southern allies/country-folk allies, LGBTQIA+, or otherwise.
