It was too triggering, lacking any form of content warnings for very graphic discussions (at least in audiobook form). At 80% in almost all stories are the same experience of hypersexual awakening, which is repetitive and feels like it is intentionally ignoring those of us who are queer with different experiences.

I really and truly loved reading this book! Hearing a spectrum of stories as broad as our community was incredibly insightful, at times relatable, funny and sad, it has everything. For queer Australians, the Australian context in which these stories are based is a comfort, and allows for you to feel more deeply connected to your Australian queer community. As if the writers are your friends, telling you of their experiences and wisdom.

A wonderful compilation of queer stories. I only wished that there had been content warnings before each story as some were quite confronting.
