Agonizingly relatable. Unapologetic. Their prose is SO good and illuminates so much of my own life and brain.
Chills the whole way through. Grateful that I'm here at the same time they are publishing books.

Beautiful. Deeply poetic, deeply vulnerable, and deeply illuminating.
Having already read most of Emezi's work, this memoir gave me a lot of clarity around the concepts explored in their books (specifically Freshwater).
