A review by siobhanward
All Boys Aren't Blue by George M. Johnson

emotional reflective medium-paced

4.0

Johnson has a talent for drawing in readers and creating a narrative that feels like a conversation. I appreciated that they didn't shy away from challenges, while at the same time sharing stories of Black and queer joy in their life. I only wish that they could have shared more about their journey to who they are today. Johnson talked a lot about their life as a young adult, but didn't talk much about what happened between then and now. This was still a beautifully written read and I'm really happy to have read it. I think it's a great story of hope for any young person who may be struggling with their identity, as Johnson reminds us that it's not a smooth journey, but its a worthwhile one.
