Reviews with content warning for Homophobia - High School

A different telling than the tv show or graphic novel, and likely the truest account. Very teens in the 90’s. I really enjoyed the last bit where their career is starting.
It’s great to see 90’s queer stories and the mental hoops we jumped through to avoid labels. Reminds me to have compassion for people that are going through that now.

This was a good memoir. I personally didn’t enjoy it much because I felt like my experiences as a teen are so separate from anything sara and tegan experienced. While I don’t need to relate to the people in the memoir in order to enjoy it, it still felt too removed from anything in my sphere. The writing was excellent though, and I imagine many others will be able to enjoy it more than me!
