This book is profound and deeply moving. The way the author weaves his survival of the Pulse tragedy with his experiences of growing up Black and gay is incredibly compelling and gives an important glimpse into the lived day-to-day reality of minorities in America.
There are a few sections that jump around in time and get a little confusing, but the author always circles back to clear up the chronology.
Please note that many portions of this book are incredibly graphic. Note well the content tags and proceed at your own risk.
