The publisher says: The Breakup Book is a collection of essays written by people who identify as LGBTQ+. Some are sad, some are heartwarming, and most importantly, all of them are deeply personal. As queer people, we are often driven to politicize our relationships, focusing entirely on the positive. When talking about relationships, there’s pressure to convince our straight counterparts that we have it all figured out. But we have just as much growth to do as anybody else. We need to figure out how to have healthy relationships with few representations of what that might look like, and at the same time, we have to figure out how to leave relationships that aren’t working. Steering away from the superficial, we felt is was important to document queer breakups to show how nuanced they can be. You’ll laugh, you’ll cry, you might call your ex. Just... think about it first. This will not be reprinted. Get one while we still have some!
