I have a complicated relationship with (culty) religions, and growing up around them. So this book really was so meaningful to me - It made all of my fears about my queerness and the religion around me feel warranted and valid, real and raw.
Andrew Joseph White wrote the most beautiful, twisted, and genuine queer horror that spoke to every part of my experience. The fears, the confusion, the hiding, the rage, the feeling of finally finding a queer community to support you. It was all there.
Can't wait to consume everything else Andrew Joseph White has written.
(Check TW's before reading - they are very intense.)
