 I enjoyed the twist on the classic, and the author’s portrayal of the trans expirence and queer spaces in the 20’s. The pacing was great for the first 2/3rds- with the last hundred or so pages rushing a bit to seal everything shut. However, I enjoyed McLemore’s style of writing- overall a good read.
