I was SO confused throughout but I still loved this book? 😂
Identity politics and religious constraints in a very bizarre yet exciting book ✨ Really really loved Pew (they’re about the only person I loved in the story, which is why I said the characters were lovable 😂).
This whole debate of ‘but what gender and race are they’ was so infuriating, of course!
4 out of 5 stars for me. I am excited to read more reviews of it on here! My book loving friend who I was with at the time was very intrigued by the premise 🥹
