Belatedly finished this brilliant book by the amazing @kallen21046 Strange, mythic and disorientating - and also deeply poignant at times. Wild dreamlike storytelling as if from a collective unconscious. I loved it. @CRPress @cwaleicester @EverybodyReview

Brian Leung's All I Should Not Tell was selected by @Salon as a Favorite Book of the Year!
Replying to @Salon
“ALL I SHOULD NOT TELL is both a page-turner of a crime novel and a sensitive family drama, offering a compelling portrait of queer late-Gen X small-town life, when ‘It Gets Better’ was more a survival mantra than a sure thing.” — @eekshecried salon.com/2022/12/15/salons-… @CRPress
