I want to clarify that I am not a fiction reader- I read fantasy and I read young adult. I want to escape reality and have fun. This book was the opposite of anything I normally love to read, BUT this book will probably be in my top 5 favorite books of 2022.
If you want to big cry- heartbroken cry, laugh cry, angry cry- this book is a perfect choice for you.
If you want to sit with characters who understand how difficult it is to exist but are also trying to create something meaningful and beautiful despite the difficulties of the world- this book is for you.
If you have lost friends that were not lovers but weren't just friends and weren't just coworkers- this book is for you.
Bring the tissue box and dive in. This book was beautiful.
CW: Gun violence, homophobia, misogyny, and other things that one might have to deal with while existing in the USofA from the 1980s to the 2010s.
P.S. I read this book because I read Memoirs of a Teenage Amnesiac back in the late 2000s.
