This was a book club read! I like when a nonfiction book makes its way into my reading. I'm drawn to fiction so naturally that a nonfiction book can be refreshing sometimes.

The book describes the white gay experience in nutshell. Clubbing, sex, drugs, more sex, more clubbing. The author finds his partner for life and they are slutty together all over Europe and... New York? LA? I'm writing this months after reading so the details are hazy. I remember being put off a bit by the author's perspective. Though, there were many parts that felt very validating as a gay man(ish) myself. This made me want to read more of James Baldwin actually because I found similar feelings when reading Giovanni's Room. Add more James Baldwin to the TBR!!

I wouldn't have know about the book if not for the book club, and it made for a good discussion with friends!
