It's hard if not impossible to rate such a Book. This is a short one, but take your time to read it and read each poem at least twice. They are powerful, emotional, tense, strong... they're like punches in the face. At least when people use Israel's pinkwashing show them this book.
Maybe sometimes the rhythm was a bit odd but it's nothing because this book is just... wow
And yes I said that it was hard to rate such a book. But I need to give it 5 stars, so people will probably read it.

Okay, so do I love it as much as I loved PET? No. But PET is something else and I knew it would be hard for me to love this one more than it. But I still find it wonderful. It's a great book that will resonate in some people.
I almost cry in the middle of the steer lol

Coming in by Élodie Font

That was soemthing. Je me suis retrouvée dans certaines choses qu'à décrit l'actrice. Mais ce n'est pas ce qui fait la force de ce livre c'est comment elle raconte son vécu sans cacher le "moche" et les émotions.
Difficultés à s'accepter homophobie intériorisée ou non, le outing, les remarques homophobes des proches avant le c-o.
Mais ouais le coming in c'est dur; ça fait peur et ça peut-être violent. Mais on est pas seul.e dedans.

Les dessins aussi sont top
