All Boys Aren't Blue by George M. Johnson

Mini Audiobook Review:  I never understood the concept of banning books but this for some reason is a top book that is banned in the US. The essays collected in this book are based off George's life which likely mirrors so many other children, teens and adults so why ban it? Simply because it wasn't your experience doesn't mean it doesn't happen. 

This is not a very long book but packs a punch in the pages that it has. I had done the audiobook and George delivered the narration so beautiful and their voice never waivered despite the heavy themes. I also enjoyed their letters to their family members that were woven throughout. 

This book will hopefully be the first book for my company's Pride Book Club and if it is chosen I am looking forward to discussing this book with my colleagues. 

**I will not be rating Non Fiction books as it is based on real events and real experiences.**
