Excerpt of Goodreads Review of Hearts Stop by YaaYah (@ ScaryLaurenStan)
I CRIED reading this book. Cary Lauren said in an interview once that she stays away from âqueer tearsâ (lol) but boy did she get a bucket of them for this:
âFools anticipate forgiveness. You do not have to forgive your mother. You do not have to forgive your father. They are entitled to nothing. Not obedience. Nor mended fences.
âYou are entitled your peace. Leave âem hanging for as long as you want.â
When I came out three years ago, my dad kicked me out of the house. My mom didnât do anything about it. I remember walking to my grammyâs house with a bookbag full of shorts (fun fact: I always bought shorts in middle school because I thought they made me look straight). A week later, my mom shows up crying. âWe changed our minds, we changed our minds,â she says. âWeâre so sorry, we love you.â
They were really sorry. I know they were.
Iâve lived with them for the two years since. They hug me, wish me a good night. We go to church together (plot twist, Iâm a Christian). Theyâve met my girlfriends.
They took me back in, right? Some people donât even get that. They kicked me out, but it didnât last forever. I should be grateful they arenât abusive and theyâre working on their homophobia.
But I cried like a bitch reading this, because Queen Lauren doesnât think I should be grateful.
Queen Lauren said, âfuck closure.â Iâm entitled to my peace.
