Anyone's Ghost by August Thompson
5.0
another book i love that is just straight up No Children by the Mountain Goats
i love that this book reveals that Jake will die on the first page, i think otherwise it wouldn’t be nearly as impactful.
i love this i love this i love this it’s a stellar coming-of-age narrative and it’s both incredibly sad but extremely funny in places (when Theron googled “best places LA reddit” to try and get Jake to visit?? bro i would do the exact same thing).

But I knew it was better not to make public comparisons, even as a dumbo junior in college, when Lou and I sat on the stoop of her building and drank gin out of a plastic bottle until five in the morning, and I cried and came out to her, not as gay and not as bi but as confused and very tired.
