Real life was not a joy to read but had me captivated from the start. Dark and lonely, I’ve never read anything that captured the feelings of loneliness and the feeling that your life isn’t quite right. Left me tender hearted especially after the ending.

Felt like I read this in the right time in my life, loved the themes of feminism, growth, anarchy, indecision etc. Really well done and had me hooked from the beginning.

This book felt like it was a white woman writing about race. Some parts were well written, a lot made me shake my head with the descriptions.

Fantastic, felt very seen even if I didn’t directly relate to a question.

The last three stories were my favourite! Fiddler, pair of fools was fantastic so whimsical and dark

Incredibly rich in descriptions and feelings. Lou made my heart ache in a good way. Super interesting and original

So rich and complex, unexpected and refreshing. I got chills so many times! Favourite book so far this year

Really enjoyed this one, especially first half. However, the one pivotal moment really upset me and left me reeling for days and definitely brought it down from a five star read for me and made it harder to finish.

This book made me feel affirmed, sparkly, and in awe of the queer community. I could see myself so much in the main character, this book was so full of life:)

Hard to read but hard to put down.

reading this book was like sipping a hot tea, cozy, inviting, thought provoking. I really enjoyed it.

Raw, heart breaking and haunting.

A sweet coming of age queer camp story, heartwarming and entertaining.

Rich in descriptions, moving and so much heartbreak and hope for the author. Love a good memoir but it was a bit long for me.

Thrilling, fast paced and unexpected. I didn’t expect to devour this book as fast as I did!
