A review by jamesbrainz
Hell Followed with Us by Andrew Joseph White

4.25

I know I'm sorely late to the party, but it's obvious why this novel exploded upon release. It's everything I needed when I was a young, confused, angry trans kid and everything I need now as a not as young, still pretty confused and angry trans adult. Every page is authentic and brutal, every chapter is flooded with gore that bruises the boundary of how much is too much for YA shelves. And it does so with the expertise only available when an author is writing straight from the heart for people like them. 
Trans teens deserve this kind of unyielding literature that recognizes the teeth and claws a fascist society has forced them to sharpen and says they are good and they will survive. I'm thoroughly looking forward to devouring everything else Andrew Joseph White throws out into the world.
