Loved this book. It was such a unique plot, and so fun to find a historical fiction that addressed queer characters in a realistic way while still giving them full lives. That being said the queer element of this book is by no means the main plot line so please don’t expect that going in. Overall highly would recommend this book especially if you plan to visit Malaysia ❤️
