This book is beautifully written. It was a real pleasure to read. I absolutely love the news articles scattered throughout, you get insight into both Evelyn's view and the Media's view of her (and how those conflict). I went into this book knowing there was a theme of LGBT+, but I absolutely did not expect this book to go the way it did. 
I know not all books that "blow up" and become popular are great but this book is absolutely amazing.
