You can't really put a rating on someone's life or perspective of their life. But you can on the execution. This memoir is littered with literary references, sometimes to a fault, but I enjoyed most of them anyway. However, it also got a bit convoluted due to this. Overall, though, I enjoyed it, and I believe the rating may be higher if I read it a second time in the future.
Graphic: Death and Death of parent
Moderate: Suicide, Toxic relationship, and Car accident
Minor: Adult/minor relationship, Biphobia, Homophobia, Infidelity, Pedophilia, Sexual content, Grief, Lesbophobia, and Alcohol
