This is such an amazing & beautiful book, and I will recommend it to many of my friends and family members who've been discouraged by the news of yet another Trump era. This book encouraged me so much, showing me what a more disability-justice-focused world could look like. It inspired me to imagine the communities I can build today that help me live a better life as a disabled person and impact others around me. The book is filled with countless stories of disabled experiences and community building, especially during the peak of the painful COVID-19 era. It is also filled with footnotes that thoroughly provide sources and recommendations for future reading.

This book is wonderfully bold, tackling topics many might shy away from in mainstream discussions, and this is intentional. It showcases the loud, in-your-face 'crip joy' and 'crip advocacy' the author discusses, making their points even more impactful.

I listened to this as an audiobook from my library, but I definitely plan to buy my own copy to re-read and highlight. The audiobook was a great listen, but this would also make a college-level textbook. I fully intend to refer back to this book throughout my life, and I'm genuinely grateful to have had the chance to read it!
