this had some of the best bisexual tension i've ever read! the gender bending! the gay fear in [redacted's] eyes! the only reason it's not a 5 star read is because i didn't love the plot, but i adored the characters and the writing so much it doesn't matter. i highlighted nearly every passage where alma talks about her "in-between"-ness, her not-feminine but not-masculine desires and body, the way she can shapeshift into another person at will. it was delicious!
