I honestly do not even know how to review this book because of how brilliant it is. This is hands down going into my top 5 books of the year. It is poignant, heartbreaking, uplifting, funny, sad, intense, and just everything you can imagine! It covers the spectrum of emotions and this book had me all over the place. George M. Johnson bares it all in this story - and his is one that everyone should read. We get SUCH a lesson on being a Black, queer person with All Boys Aren't Blue and I think of this book as 100% essential. I am getting chills just thinking about it and writing this review. Apologies for not being able to articulate more, but this book is just .... SO GOOD! Trust me! Just do it! 5 stars! Infinity stars!!
