What a read! I was hooked from the start, wanting to learn more about the messy lives and relationships of these queer and trans characters - flawed and endearing as they are. I’m fresh off of reading it so still processing the recurring themes of family (chosen and “nuclear”) as well as the intersections of race and gender informing how these characters navigate their world.
