Zack Smedley has done it again—I’m absolutely shaken by Deposing Nathan! I could have powered through it in one go last night, but I made the wise choice to sleep, which meant I could fully immerse myself in it this morning. And wow, was that the right decision. This book is raw, gripping, and emotionally intense, tackling the complexities of religion and LGBTQ+ identity in a way that feels both deeply personal and universally important. The courtroom-style storytelling, the unraveling of truth, the way it explores love, loyalty, and self-acceptance—absolute chef’s kiss. A masterpiece through and through!
