Reviews / Votes
An absolute gift of a book. Clarke guides readers through the joys and challenges of bi+ identity with an abundance of heart, compassion, and wisdom. What shines through in every page is Clarke's belief that queerness is an experience of possibilities, not limitations. I wish I had this book as a young person, and I'm sure many young readers will find the courage to be themselves in its pages. -- Cody Daigle-Orians, author and asexuality educator, @acedadadvice The uplifting, reassuring guide I wish I'd had when I was figuring out my sexuality. Laura writes with so much humour and warmth and I know this is going to be an invaluable resource for so many young people. -- Milly Evans, award-winning sex educator and author of Honest This book made me realise just how deep in the closet I'd been - buried under years of bi erasure and biphobia. It gave me a sense of belonging I didn't know I was missing -- Shaparak KhorsandiMore details
