If you want a comprehensive book about the LGBTQ community history， social and political issues and why it matters to be understanding， this is it！ Yes， this is very long but it is worth it if you want to understand。 The people against the LGBTQ community need to realize they are people too and deserve the same rights and respect， just as anyone else。 I am not of the community BUT I have many friends who are and I do not see them any differently， it is someone who is still a friend。 This book wi If you want a comprehensive book about the LGBTQ community history， social and political issues and why it matters to be understanding， this is it！ Yes， this is very long but it is worth it if you want to understand。 The people against the LGBTQ community need to realize they are people too and deserve the same rights and respect， just as anyone else。 I am not of the community BUT I have many friends who are and I do not see them any differently， it is someone who is still a friend。 This book will definitely make you reconsider your thoughts on the subject and to show compassion and understanding。 It is what you want， right？ Highly recommended but it is a hefty read （900+ pages） and strong subject matter but worth it。Thanks to Netgalley， Sasha Issenberg and Knopf Doubleday Publishing Group for an ARC in exchange for an honest review。Available: 6/1/21 。。。more

Read if you: Want a greater understanding of the decades-long fight for marriage equality。 Carve out some time if you plan to read this; it's an exhaustive overview of the various court， legislative， and public decisions regarding marriage equality。 However， there's really nothing else that matches the scope and range of Issenberg's work。 Many thanks to Pantheon and Edelweiss for a digital review copy in exchange for an honest review。 Read if you: Want a greater understanding of the decades-long fight for marriage equality。 Carve out some time if you plan to read this; it's an exhaustive overview of the various court， legislative， and public decisions regarding marriage equality。 However， there's really nothing else that matches the scope and range of Issenberg's work。 Many thanks to Pantheon and Edelweiss for a digital review copy in exchange for an honest review。 。。。more
