I wasn’t sure about this book from the synopsis but it was so much better than I could ever have imagined. I felt seen in a way I don’t often get from books, and this is one of the few books I can see myself rereading. I devoured it in under two days, despite coming out of a very long reading drought. This book exposed parts of myself I hadn’t even fully known about, and because of that, reading it was a pretty intense experience. This is not a light book. But it’s one of the most impactful books I’ve read in a very long time. I already have my hands on another one of Andrew Joseph White’s books and I can’t wait to read it.
