emotional funny reflective medium-paced

4.0

Leg is a fantastic memoir on sexuality, disability, and family. For a book filled with heartbreak and loss, there's so much humor and joy and love. I loved reading about Greg Marshall's life, especially when it came to his relationship with his family.

Thank you Netgalley for providing a digital ARC.
