This is my favorite new book. For anyone who plays or loves roller derby, I absolutely recommend it. This is a book about courage and love, on and off the track, of coming out and becoming our own people. It's a story so familiar to some many queer folks, and it has all the beauty of found family we'd ever wish for. I found vicarious healing through Gabe's story, and will be thinking about it for a long time.
