this book was… an experience. i think it’s important to read queer media from time periods that aren’t here and now, as it’s important to see the growth but also see (sadly) how similar things are. this book is heavy in some places, but i think it reflects the time period well.
go into this book expecting to be hurt by some of the things being said, and you’ll experience all kinds of emotions.
(i was raised religious, but have distanced myself from that as i’ve grown and been allowed to find my own path, so i’m grateful i never experienced anything like the religion in this book.)
