This is a book I will be thinking about for a long time. It packs such a punch in just under 300 pages. It made me tear up, laugh sometimes and even find really warm tender hearted moments. Aloe and Bitter? Such a sweet dynamic. Everyone should read this book.
Graphic: Gore, Self harm, Violence, and Police brutality
Minor: Child abuse and Homophobia
