I loved this book so much. It was a gift from two hosts of my favorite podcast (Podcast from Planet Weird) so I was able to read along physically while I read with the audiobook as well. George told their story in a way that was perfect for them and what I loved about this was that I know this will speak to so many different people on so many levels. The content is heavy, for sure, but to say that everything in this book is necessary would be an understatement. The intersectionality between Blackness and Queerness is something that has to be discussed. So many Black members of the LGBTQIAP+ community don't have the chance to experience the love or community that George talks about in this book and I hope that this book is one step in letting them know that they aren't alone and they are absolutely worthy of love, joy and happiness.

For most of this, I felt like I was sitting with George, experiencing their life alongside them. I laughed and loved Nanny, I cried at their losses, I hurt for their trauma and pain, I felt hope and joy during their moments of happiness. This book just made me feel things and I just want everyone to experience it (safely of course).
