Love Lorde, but like many autobiographies, the end was flat and drifted.

brings to mind my own childhood in all of the same feelings of shame, eroticism, curiosity, and the fight for identity in hostile yet loving waters

I really hated this book. I enjoyed the first part where the author tells of her childhood, but after that, the book went downhill. I felt like I only got little glimpses of her life outside of her bedroom. A very disappointing read.

Ah! Finally an assigned reading actually worth the endeavor! Audre tells her fascinating life story of being a black, female, lesbian poet who's come out in a white, heterosexual world. How she's survived is beyond me, but it's an interesting account of perspective, for sure, that's beautifully written.

I found this book erotic, provocative and effortless--a romantic, awe-inspiring Bildungsroman that redefines and revitalizes racial, social and sexual identity.
