Listening to Thomas--a senior writer for Elle.com and pop-culture super-fan--read his collection of essays about his experience as a gay, Black man growing up in Baltimore and navigating issues of race, sexuality, and life in general was both enlightening and enjoyable. He's hilarious (one essay is entitled, "Molly, Urine Danger Girl") and his humor and truth-telling about his experiences make you laugh while you feel for the prejudice and hardships he had to navigate. If you need a laugh, this audiobook will bring many of them.
