When I was looking for some male authored AAPI and Desi books for May, this popped up on a general list for books. I was very intrigued by the description and, luckily, my library had it. The book is gorgeous and hard to read. It confronts a lot of identity and finding your own self, as well as the cultural stigma of being queer. It was a hard book to get through, but absolutely gorgeous.
