⭐️⭐️⭐️

I had such high hopes for this, but really struggled with it. In part because of the language. (I had to look up several words I didn‘t know in the dictionary, and English is my first language!) I found it hard to focus, it was so dense.

Very damning of Canada in terms of the treatment of indigenous peoples and an interesting perspective on NDN queer life, I‘m glad I read it but wouldn‘t recommend it.

My 1st book for the #transrightsreadathon and I thought it was great! I very much want to read his memoir now.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

JVN discusses queer life in a series of personal essays complete with research and data to back up his opinions (love a good reference). Covering grief, public perception and imposter syndrome, as well as his HIV+ status and the HIV safety net, among other things - this was a great quick read.
