This is one of those books that make me wish my queerness wasn’t repressed until I was in my 30s. The Queer Girl is Going to Be Okay is a love letter to the queer kids who are navigating the world imperfectly, while still reaching for love through all of the challenges and obstacles. It’s an exploration of queer friendship, that is a special love all in itself. It’s a reminder that you can make mistakes and survive shitty things while still deserving love. I absolutely loved everything about this book.
If you’re listening on audio, the pauses between chapters are a little long, but overall the audio is lovely as well. Each character expressed uniquely with homage to the diverse characters represented
