A review by tophat8855
Darling Days by iO Tillett Wright

4.0

I did not know who iO was before reading this memoir, but I’m glad I do now. He is about my same age, so listening (via Hoopla, read by the author) I would match up the dates with events from my own life.

I’m impressed with how he realized he did need help to get out of his mother’s house and had the gumption to do that. I’m impressed with his honesty about figuring out and experimenting with his gender and sexuality. I was also impressed with how accepting his parents were for him “switching” genders through life. Obviously there is much to criticize about his parents too.

I went and checked out ISO’s Instagram and it looks like he’s really come into his own.
