If you like queer stories this is for you. It starts out with people thinking she likes men and she ends up with a woman. I don't consider this a spoiler so I won't do the spoiler thing.

It is a really nice take on a poison ivy origin. It is definitely not a light read, and it might be triggering for some. The characters are well developed and the plot does not feel rushed.
