Lucas Wilson: Shame-Sex Attraction (2025, Kingsley Publishers, Jessica)

Powerful

I first heard of this book when Lucas Wilson was interviewed by James of Fundie Friday's. They mentioned it had a variety of experiences from different backgrounds, and while not all encompassing, it is a large spread of stories.

It's a difficult read, but an important one. I highly recommend it.

Even before that I was struggling to stay engaged. A bit to slice of life for me.

Well written but not for me.
