this book continues to be such a hopeful, breathe of fresh air. and simultaneously, it forced me to acknowledge my white privilege: something i know is always there, but not always visible.
i really do love this book :)

It is with tears in my proud, gay eyes as I recite this quote by Jay Fletcher, one of Jawando’s fathers: “Think you’re something and you can make yourself everything. Think you’re nothing and you will never be anything. It’s your decision.”
Chills. I love this book.

oh. my. god. a book has never made me cry this early into it. what powerful, passionate language Jawando uses to convey the complex characterization of him and his family. 😞
