Reading this was very special. I saw myself in many of the testimonies, and thoughts I've often believed I was alone in having were perfectly spelled out in these pages. It often felt like praying.
I wish it had been more diverse, that there had been more trans and nonbinary writers, more religions represented. And the afterword, albeit beautiful, shouldn't have been by a cis straight person, no matter how strong their connection to the queer community. That was a disappointment. It comes to show how difficult it actually is to find queer spaces.
