A moving, horrifying post-apocalyptic story. Religious trauma: the book. Heavy-handed allegory for transness woven seamlessly with horror and pain. I wish I had read this book as a teen. I found the ending (last 1/3 of the book, really) felt a bit rushed and the story minorly suffered because of it, but still enjoyed it. LONG CW list, read the whole list before you dive into this one.
