This book has honestly left me speechless.

The prose was so incredibly rich and poetic.  Joukhadar is definitely a master of language: every word he used struck exactly the right cord.

The queer people in this book were wonderfully written - in a very natural, honest but still raw and vulnerable way. Incredible. 

And the story has left me choked up and emotional, in a good way. I immediately want to reread this book.
