This is a very well done queer coming of age book. I especially enjoyed Ari‘s discovery of music, and of course his love of Nirvana in particular. This felt like a slice of my own growing-up-story.

The main focus of the book is Ari‘s teenage years, with shorter glimpses of his 40 year old self. From the blurb I was expecting more of his later self, but I‘m ended up loving the book as it was.

I received an ARC through LibraryThing.⬇️

“In biology, they could have learned the differences between meiosis and mitosis if they‘d wanted to, but they didn‘t want to.”

I‘m really enjoying this ARC! I admit, I had to google, I didn‘t remember the difference from high school days (25 years ago, what?!?).

Please note this quote is from an ARC and the final published wording may change.

I‘m pretty sure this is the first time I‘ve gotten an ARC this long before it‘s published. I started it this evening, and while there was some awkward and clunky dialogue in the first chapter, it seems to have worked itself out now and I‘m getting into the story. I haven‘t come across any Nirvana references yet... I‘m ready for them!

I got a new ARC from LibraryThing‘s Early Reviewers today, as well as several #JB cards! (Some of these came other days over the last week.)

Thank you also to Three Rooms Press. I‘ll be reading this soon.
