It’s been a few months since I read this but I loved it. I do recommend it with trigger warnings (especially for sexual violence) because it’s very intense and the authors voice really draws you in. I’m so glad that this book exists and felt so seen in many ways by the storyline- particularly as a non-binary trans person but also as a spiritual person. I only wish that the pace didn’t speed up at the end, I felt like I wanted to spend more time in that part of the story.
