I don’t usually cry over books, but I cried over this one. This is a book I wish I had read earlier, before my first love and first heartbreak. If you are a young queer woman, I strongly encourage you to read this book because even though it is set almost 70 years ago, so much of it resonated with the experiences we still have today.
