A review by louismunozjr
After Elias by Eddy Boudel Tan

4.0

I received this book for free via NetGalley in exchange for an honest critique.

I had not heard of the book or the author before coming across the this LGBTQ+ title while “browsing” through NetGalley. It was a quick read, but not for any luck of substance, quite the opposite. There was a great mix of universal truths and “home truths” along the way, many heartbreaking moments, often leavened with hard-won humor, and some interesting twists along the way. Ultimately, I would say that this book about death offers up a lot of needed hope, and I look forward to reading more from this author.
