Doria killed her targeted and the use of drag in her story, I get it but I think in todays climate it felt off to demonize queer gender expression. I also felt that Gemma being immediately failed had she not saved Adele’s life (even not knowing she was pregnant) felt a bit off. It makes sense for the time period of the book, but I’m just not sure I like either inclusion.Graphic: Violence, Death, and Murder

There was one aspect that kind of bothered me: That being a side character using a cross-dresser, though fictitious, as the scapegoat for their plans. While it's certainly a unique means of execution, I don't like the implications. Though I don't think we're meant to particularly like this character or agree with her, so I can't speak to any underlying bias of the author.
