I wouldn't say that I have religious trauma, even though I am a lesbian and religion has been used against me in every day life to hurt me. Despite that, this book struck a deep chord with me and had me crying with its emotion.
Naudus has a beautiful voice and the sincerity of her words hit with full power. I can't write a review that'll do it justice, so I'll just say this: Read it.

This was my first sapphic romance, and the way it held space for tenderness, questioning, and complexity against the backdrop of high-control families and communities felt almost too real to explain. I had to stop and absorb some parts just to catch my breath. The emotional resonance and compassionate pacing will stay with me for a long time.
