really liked it
bookshelves: non-ya, nonfiction, lgbt-plus, memoir, 4-stars, recommend, owned, reviewed

just lovely.

i love memoirs because they are as close as you can get to the readability of fiction while being true, and because people are cool and i like them, and because i'm addicted to stories, but above all because i'm nosy.

this satisfied all of those reasons.

this is more academic than it is poetic, especially when compared to my surprise favorite of the year, bluets, but it is just as endlessly interesting all the same.

bottom line: maggie nelson!!!!!!

is there anything more exciting than starting a book by an author you've five starred before
