A heartfelt and sometimes humorous take on mental illness, sexuality, and just being alive. I loved this book and appreciate the author's vulnerability and ability to speak so frankly about taboo, complex subject matter. As a queer person with major depression, social anxiety, and a history of shame/confusion around sex and sexuality, reading this book was validating and made me feel less alone. 

I also always appreciate hearing about adults who are just beginning to explore sex and their sexuality. There's so much stigma around sexual inexperience and many of us who are "late bloomers" can feel immense shame about this (speaking from experience). I'm grateful to artists and writers who are willing and able to tell stories about later in life sexual exploration. The concept of virginity and the moral judgement we attach to it is not inevitable or necessary!
