Oh…. my GOSH????!
There is SO much to digest here that I’ll be thinking about this book FOREVER.
I loved this even more than Their Vicious Games. The found family is STRONG. The messages on gentrification and classism and typecasting yourself and others and being more than just one ‘type’ … there were points where I stopped breathing and I had to relax my shoulders because they started creeping towards my ears. YOU HAVE TO READ THIS BOOK.
