i never really know what to say abt memoirs because theyre such a raw form of storytelling and i dont want it to sound like im criticizing someones life, but this book was so raw and painful in parts that all i can really say is thank you to author and i can only hope this book falls into others peoples hands as i can see it being something a lot of people will need 💖💖💖

I really enjoyed this book and so thankful to have literature such as this to help support me as a 30 something black queer woman. This is a definite recommendation to all in and outside of the community. I cried, laughed, learned and so much more!
