A gut-wrenchingly beautiful book. It hurts, and it tells the truth.

Oh, this book. Do you want to cry? Do you want to feel queer community? Do you want to feel seen (maybe uncomfortably so)? You are loved. We are all loved. This is a beautiful book.

Reading this in bits here and there, because it's poetry, and poetry needs time to wind its way through the soul.

I've just borrowed the audiobook from my library after being on a waitlist. I'm very excited to begin!

As a white person learning about abolitionist thought and finding ways that I can, with chronic illnesses, be part of this movement, reading this book (and listening, I read part of it via audiobook) both challenged and encouraged me. There is something to be said about firmness, unflinching truthfulness, and boundaries: they are kindness like no other. I will read this book again.

Finished! I don't think I'm going to listen to the second audiobook half of this story. I don't mind a slightly fantastical romance, but the voice acting felt overdone and the sound effects were, honestly, kind of gross.

I LOVE KAMERON HURLEY'S BOOKS. Just started this one through my library's ebook program.

Got the audiobook from my library so I can keep reading banned books.

I started this book in paperback some months back, but I have found it difficult to focus on reading physical books. I borrowed the audiobook through my library and have started listening to that today.

I LOVED THIS. I read the updated edition and it's even better than the original edition. I cried, I felt seen, I experienced some gender euphoria. What a great book this is.
