pick⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A horrifying telling of the how gay men and others with HIV/Aids were treated throughout the 80s and 90s. There is controversy around the exageration of how many men Coker supported and buried but even if she reached half the men she says she did, that is a feat that not many people can say they did. In her writing, I was fanscinated by the theme of power and contacts and how often these cropped up when trying to support dying people.

bailedThis is a weird DNF for me, because I did enjoy most of what I read. The beginning was tongue in cheek, yet informative. Near midway, it‘s like the intellectual caps were put on, and it became textbook and dry. The ‘bad‘ is also not quite as bad as I was hoping. Some of the people were so ambiguously bad that I didn‘t really even know why I was reading about them. I wanted some extremes. If you‘re gonna do dry, give me the hardcore.

Decided to hop on the 2023 Reading Brackets train! I‘m doing two competitions (fiction and nonfiction) because I read both genres equally. Tagged is my nonfiction pick for January. It‘s a fantastic read that I picked up thanks to my #AuldLangSpine list from @Deblovestoread 🙂
