A great look into the life of a black queer man and hearing it narrated in George’s voice was wonderful.

I enjoyed this one, I feel like I learned a lot about struggles and challenges faced by Black, Queer people and about the dangers of just existing in a world determined to hate you for who you are and who you love. It was a very eye opening read.

No rating for nonfiction, but I do recommend reading this one. It was difficult to get through some parts because of the content, so I would check content warnings. This story is such an important lesson for people who identify more like me than they do the person telling this story.

Heart-wrenching, searingly honest and shocking. There was occasional “finding my journey” speak which came across a little cringe; plus the SA chapter was incredibly difficult to read and felt overly sympathetic to the abuser, even with the disclaimer at the end of the chapter. In addition, the fraternity parts read like self-immolation rather than self-realisation and finding family, but what do I know? I’ve never been in one. You can’t fault George for his honesty though.
