I loved the narrative style and tropes of the Dream House once I got used to the flow. I really appreciated how Carmen held the complexities of domestic violence and the topic and experiences within the queer community. This text will absolutely remain an important work in queer narratives. So well done.

Doing the audio version was not the best choice for this one. I know this is rude, but the author's voice just came across almost pretentious? But I know I wouldn't feel that way had I read a physical copy. I also think it was just too heavy and only heavy for me, especially since my previous audiobook was one that infused difficult content with humor. This one was just hard all around. I love this author's writing in fiction, but it's way too literary for me for a memoir, especially on audiobook.
BUT it's also the fact that I could tell how gorgeous the writing was that I don't rate it lower so 🤷♀️😬
