Before I listened to the audiobook, I had no idea who the author was but I could tell that she was an exceptionally talented writer. Her memoir was so poetic, it was very moving. It made me wish I could listen to her for hours more than the time allotted to narrating the audiobook. I also thought that she beautifully captured her journey away from, towards and with God.

I usually usually rate each book I read but I decided to make an exception for Gay Girl, Good Girl. Given that I fall outside of the LGBTQ+ community, and because I'm still searching for answers myself in terms of understanding Christian theology vis-à-vis sexual orientation, I didn't think it's my place to make a judgement call in terms of rating Gay Girl, Good God. Because let's face it, 5 stars is as good as agreeing with Perry's views and 1 star is an outright opposition.

In any case, this is such a well-written and intensely personal memoir that regardless of whether or not anyone subscribes to Perry's views, it'd be a shame to ignore the literary merits.
