dark emotional hopeful reflective sad medium-paced

5.0

Machado had a lot of courage in talking about her story and a lot of heart in telling the story of other queer women. This book really opened my eyes to a topic I never thought to look at head on.

The vibe of this book is really sad. The energy is very depressing though it does take a hopefully turn at the end.

dark reflective fast-paced

5.0

Memoir is of a relationship gone bad and a breakdown of the pieces within that relationship that form a pattern of psychological abuse. The author wraps in narrative tropes that are supported by film, fiction, queer history, and more. It was a very compelling read.
