Though there were pieces of this novel that felt...extra, the story itself does an amazing job of telling the tale of those of us in the LGBT+ community that tried to find reconciliation between who we are and what our religion wanted from us. I remember going to church camp and the feeling of disgust with myself that I was a gay man, which was taught to me by the "caring" counselors was against the God that I wanted to love me. I would completely recommend this book. It read really easily and reflected a lot of the emotions and struggles I faced as a teenager.
