Marina Flores captivates exactly what it means to grow up in a small town while being queer. Identity is often difficult to grapple with, not to mention the turmoil of denying one's innermost desires, and small towns aren't exactly known for having a whole lot of diversity.
We are suddenly put in the shoes of a small-town kid who hides their rainbow socks. As if looking back from a mirror, Marina enthralls us by showing exactly who we are, blemishes and all. Self-discovery and tribulation come together as one big happy family in her debut book.

A heart wrenching and personal account, anyone could find solace in her kind and honest words. An out member of the LGBTQ community, Marina shares with us a glimpse into her world. Members or not, we are handed a VIP pass.

Touching on the themes of queer identity, womanhood, nature, love, and culture - A Journal Entry feels like coming home.
