as a sapphic who was raised in the catholic faith, wow. just wow. this was so accurate, so gut-punching, so real. sometimes i related so hard it was scary. this was well written, especially with the catholic motifs sprinkled within things. this was an amazing book and really sums up the experience of growing up queer in the catholic church
