As a queer person, I’m naturally drawn to queer stories. No matter what kind of queer story it is or how it ends or how it is situated. So it’s safe to say that I’m thoroughly consumed by this book. Plus it's Alexander Chee, so it's a must read for me anyway. But, I gotta say, it’s a heavy read. It evoked a lot of sadness and self-realization in a way that makes me feel content. Content for the characters, and how it finally ends.
