LOVED this! I already really liked Finna but in my opinion Defekt flows better and effectively doubles down on the theme of anti-capitalism. Really good, really queer, a wild fucking time, go read it!

I liked Finna, but Defekt is cleverer, stranger, meaner, sweeter, and angrier and really elevates the world of the original.
