Wow.

I had heard amazing things about Dean Atta and The Black Flamingo and it was everything I could have asked for.

It is, without doubt, one of the Must Read books of 2020, and boy what a roller coaster of emotion you will go on as you read. I for one couldn't put it down, three hours spent reading the tale of a boy growing into a man and truly learning about himself in so many aspects, not just his sexuality. I could re-read this so many times and find something new to draw a sigh, a smile or quiet chuckle.

I would love to have a follow up of The Black Flamingo owning the stage, and if his long-standing crush can become more.

Thank you, Dean Atta, for a book that is truly incredible.
