[Laura Susan Johnson · Rating 5 out of 5]

I read this book shortly after reading "The Meaning of Matthew..." and found it to be well written, compassionate, and very interesting. A close friend of Matthew Shepard, Ms. Patterson describes the aftermath of the senseless murder in Laramie, WY, including the hateful efforts of the notorious Fred Phelps, a most despicable attention seeking moron who targets the funerals of gay people and military personnel to picket. She describes the counter efforts of Angels in Action, and her later work for GLAAD, with humor and candor. But the book is also a touching and facinating account of her own life as a gay woman, and her beloved family. I recommend it to anyone who needs an uplifting and positive read about people responding to evil deeds and evil intent with intelligence and strength.

I feel horrible giving this book such a low review...it's not because of the topic or anything against the author or other people in the book.

It's just that the book didn't evoke anything in me. I expected to feel a lot of emotion while reading, and instead, I hardly felt any. I wanted to be moved, and I wasn't in any way. I'm not sure if Patterson was being clinical deliberately or if she's just not great at expressive writing, but to me, the whole thing just came off flat and detached. I'd hoped to learn more about Matthew as a person, but I didn't really get that, either. Nor did I feel any connection to the whole angel project or any of Patterson's other outreach efforts.

Bummer.

It was good overall, but just not enough provoking emotion. She told her story as more “matter of fact” than getting into how she truly felt on the inside. She did in some parts, but even then, they felt somewhat dry or lacking, especially with her father. Great story teller, wish she would have let go some more. Book also needs a little more editing here and there.
Very important book to tell this historical occurrence in the perspective of someone so close to Matthew. I also liked how she didn’t want to sugar coat him or his life. She told it as it was, but that didn’t stop her from adoring him. Everyone has flaws in life.

I've had this book on my shelf for a while and never got to it. Picked it up one day and could not put it down. I took a break to make food, but read it all in one day.

Important.

[Sara · Rating 4 out of 5]

This book is like a roller coaster. I sobbed openly during parts an laughed out loud in others. It's such a strikingly personal story told so compellingly that it almost feels like catching up with a friend in long, deep conversation late into the night. I learned a lot I hadn't known about Matthew Shepard, and I have a greater appreciation and understanding of activism and the difference one person truly can make.

What a harrowing tale. Patterson isn't a great writer-- but that's why she had help. She is, however, a great activist and friend to those in the story. A must read for all activists, I'd say. This story details the precursors, the impact of Shepard's violent murder, and the trickiness of dealing with the media, protesters, and nation.

great eye for detail and character. very moving, manages to rise above being formulaic. needs editing, but worth reading. very gay 90s.

[Ruth · Rating 5 out of 5]

Beautiful tribute to her friend Matt! I wept for Romaine and Matt's family as they were put in the center of the storm of a horrifing hate crime/murder that shook the nation.

[Mikael · Rating 5 out of 5]

Shines a light on the tragic events that took Matthew Shepherd from us.

[Grant · Rating 5 out of 5]

This is a great book that shows what it is like to grow up different and to stand up for what you believe in.
