For instance, I wouldâve loved it if Julianâs circle of friends (who we meet briefly but donât get a chance to really know) couldâve been fleshed out a bit more, but I wouldnât say that the story necessarily feels lacking as is. Just that it had the opportunity for a strong âfound-familyâ element, but doesnât quite get there.

My biggest issue was with the pacing. I felt like the story took a long while to get going and it was very dense only in the last fifty or so pages.
The trans rep was phenomenal though. I really related to a lot of moments and situations (same as I did with Felix ever after).
I'm also very glad I knew just enough Spanish to not need to Google the few sentences đ . I'm very proud of myself for that haha.
