Don't Call Us Dead by Danez Smith
challenging
reflective
slow-paced
3.0
This is a book of poetry about being a Black gay man with HIV in America. Some of the poems were beautiful and had really clever use of language, but other than a few standouts I felt like a lot of them were very similar to each other.
