How privileged i feel to be able to read this. This was an extremely hard read, almost horrifying at times. It's awful to be reminded so harsly of what our people endured (and still endure) but this is also very necessary. However, this is a novel about hope, about fighting, about love in all its forms. This is such an important read, for each and every lesbian and for everyone honestly. It put in words feelings i've always had, and i'm immensely grateful i read it.
