I'm no fan of Shakespeare so maybe that's why I didn't vibe with this book. One thing I liked about this book though is the gorgeous writing!!! So vividly descriptive. Easy-to-get into, engaging purple prose. Tell me should M.L. Rio write another book that is hopefully not centered on pompous thespians, and I'll be there for it!!
Graphic: Ableism, Transphobia, Alcoholism, and Physical abuse
