the content here was something i was interested in, but the structure/delivery was blah.
I thought this was an interesting idea for a book, but overall it was just very boring and felt like a chore to read. Although I did learn some things, it felt like sifting through a history textbook and I didn't enjoy that. I don't think it worked very well to convert a podcast into a book in this circumstance, it felt disjointed at times.
I am also really not sure what the qualifier for being a "bad gay" was. Some of these people were actual nazis while others just like... had sex and the church didn't like it and those don't feel comparable at all to me.
Lastly, I thought the conclusion of "homosexuality is a history of failure" was a really bizarre conclusion to draw and not one that analyzes the broad scope of histories that queer people have had across the world.

unfortunately a bit dry compared to the podcast, but still a pretty good read

A very interesting look at historical homosexuals who are not worthy of our adulation. It can be slow and dry in places, a truly non-fiction read , reads like a textbook from a gender and sexuality class in college.
