This was a memoir full of so much emotion. A roller coaster of heartbreak for their own heartbreak, struggles with the world, and how terrible people have treated them. Why do so many people with a sun energy have to deal with people who bring them down.
I loved being able to listen to Emezi read this. I felt like I was in an author talk, perhaps in a small dark room intensely focused on their reading. I know I’m going to need a physical copy to reread, as there are many many things to take away from this. But for my first read, I think the biggest thing I took away way to believe in yourself 100%. Think and speak what you want into this world. Know that it’ll happen and it’s happening. Be the sun and say your words of truth so that they seep into your being and into reality.

Otherwise I can’t tell if it’s just that I’m uncomfortable with someone being so confident or if I genuinely think they’re delusional in a harmless way. But none of it hit with me and I didn’t enjoy the writing style either.
