I feel like I will never emotionally recover from this. Fantastic story and writing that does not shy away from the horrors of terminal illness and the evil of homophobia. It wasn't happy or hopeful and as difficult as it is to read, the AIDS epidemic was tragic and devastating and the stories of the people who suffered during it deserve to be honored.
