Go the Way Your Blood Beats: On Truth, Bisexuality and Desire by Michael Amherst
Did not finish book. Stopped at 36%.
I have tried reading this book before, and I gave up after a while - maybe even at the point I am now. Because, even though some phrases are quotes worth posting all over the internet, Amherst uses a lot of words for something he could've said in half the amount. I'm bored reading this - and maybe that's because, in my case, he is preaching to the choir. I agree with (almost) anything he says and I'm not learning anything new.
I'm really sad about it because I've been annotating like my life depends on it, and I do think this book has its place and might be very meaningful to others. But to me, it's like someone mansplaining my own experience, almost.
