Haunting

I underestimated how hauntingly heartbreaking this book would be.

“You have to put in a massive amount of effort to counter the ways that others judge you, even when it’s not reflective of how you feel or your natural temperament. As a young man, I had no idea there was a tax to be paid on that level of suppression, and that when the bill came due years later, it would nearly kill me”.
