Gay love story, intricate and creative world building meets capitalism and heteronormativity. 

Incredible concept, complex characters but a somewhat dissatisfying ending. 
I enjoyed the way the book was structured too.

kirst_b's review against another edition

I found the concept interesting. However I felt the storyline was slow and took a different path towards the middle especially with the themes such as the violence and suicide. Towards the end the change in themes caused me to lose interest and I never finished the book.

5.0

An incredible read. If it starts a bit awkward, don't let that turn you away - there's reasons for it and soon enough it sucks you up and won't let you put it down. The characters are amazing, the romance is heartwrenching, there are so many hints dropped throughout the story the books come back to that are so satisfying to unravel. Some minor things are implied but never completely explained but personally I enjoy it like that. Truly enjoyed every page of it. Gets heavier in the second half so definitely check trigger warnings if you need to.
