A review by katiemack
Something That May Shock and Discredit You by Daniel M. Lavery
3.0
I received an eARC of this book from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
This one's a 3.5 for me. (I know, I know; I'm rating a lot of books 3.5 stars lately.)
The book feels very on-brand for Danny Lavery--chock full of humor and absurdism on topics he writes about in a way that makes me feel like I'm not smart enough to keep up with him. My favorite sections of this sort-of memoir are the more poignant chapters about his transition and how it affected him. (Plus, I learned that he ate at the very Boston Market my family and I used to go to all the time--huge fangirl moment!)
The eARC contains content about his family, which he said he cut out after his estrangement. I'd be interested to know what the book is like in its finished form.
