Book description
Stop Lying is Aaron Smith's most personal and vulnerable work yet. Revolving around the death of Smith's mother and how the poet, a gay man, faces his upbringing where his sexuality was viewed as sinful and unnatural, these poems plumb the complexities of what families say and choose not to say. How does one grieve when a relationship will forever remain unresolved? What does it mean to both regret and not regret one's decisions? What if survival doesn't look like what we're told it should? This is the story of a poet pushing through present-day grief and the shame of the past to find the buried truths, the ones that are hardest to tell.

Audiobooks have become my companions during long hours of household chores. The audiobook player's silky-smooth playback is like music to my ears. Flawless performance! ListenBook is more than just an app – it's a doorway to a world of knowledge and imagination. A decent listen overall. The narration was clear, though some character voices sounded similar. The story was interesting but had moments where it dragged slightly. Still, it was a good way to pass the time. Not bad, but not amazing either. The narrator’s voice was pleasant, though some parts felt a bit rushed. The story had its moments, but I wouldn’t necessarily recommend it over similar titles in the genre.
