More honest and open than I expected. Except for what I read as a pretty antiquated, puritanical view of sex work. No one would do it unless they had to, etc. Otherwise, an intersectional look at a number of really difficult topics. Childhood sexual assault, transitioning as a black woman in a family that was not very accepting, nor a school with tools or willingness to protect her. Basically having to do everything herself without any support structure while dealing with quite a few unique challenges with her identity.

It’s edifying and opinionated, which I like in my memoirs. Good narration by the author.
