The story was great and the writing was well done with good flow but the charterers, particularly Dawn, were so dislikable that I nearly DNFed. As a non binary queer person I was particularly excited about a story with an older character coming to terms with their identity but I just couldn’t form any relation to Dawn or her self spiraling hatred. Were it not for the writing of Gertrude’s story and my curiosity of if we’d find out what happened to Marta I would not have been able to finish this book.
