Something That May Shock and Discredit You by Daniel M. Lavery

5.0

emotional funny informative medium-paced

---

In a series of short essays and prose, Daniel Ortberg reflects on his journey of identity and his knowledge of literature, relationships, and religion. It is a very self-aware and beautifully written book, leveraging cultural references and experiences to bring the reader along for the journey. It is sad and sweet and when you're complete, you'll have walked miles in an interesting and clever person's shoes for a tour of the gains and losses you have in life.
