This book is about loss, and the way people grieve the choices they make and the ones that are made for them. Family is family, but real, lasting love comes from relationships where both parties continue to choose each other each day. Chosen family can be blood too.

The Book structure flips from present to past and between characters, so if you enjoy a nonlinea structure you will appreciate this.
I enjoyed how we were made to care about some chatacters strongly just within one chapter.
The Book explores freedom, performing and passing, family and choices. It also includes transman representation, which i fekt was authentic and positive. Although colourists is explored, it is not the main focus it is much more about the characters and their individual situations.
