The History of my Sexuality follows the protagonist Sofie Lakmaker as she embarks on a journey of self-discovery alongside a journey of discovering the meaning to love and life.
In many ways, I also feel this book is about change. Change in one's life, change in the world, just change in general. You're never truly prepared for it and I feel Tobi Lakmaker did a great job at highlighting this.
The conversational tone to this book made it all the more easier to read and I found myself flying through this story. This story is one to be read, to be heard.
For me, this book hit home, particularly the last part where a death gets discussed, a death that had been hanging over the entirety of this novel. It related to something that occurred in my own life and really connected with me.
