I really enjoyed this book. It’s one I’ll definitely come back to and hope I have better luck understanding some of the stories interspersed within. Love the reflections we get to see as she grows up and faces her “demons” and that it’s not sugar coated - it’s hard and lonely and it’s also absolutely impossible to turn back once you’ve seen it.
Graphic: Homophobia and Religious bigotry
Moderate: Sexual content
Minor: Fatphobia
