This book is reflective, heartbreaking, and informative. It taught me about queer history and the relationships and disfunctions that shaped our community today. It also tells the personal story of a queer woman dealing with domestic abuse and her mental state in a fragmented and fascinating way. I read it in days. I recommend this to all gay women!
