The representation is everything I want in one book. Labels aren't explicitly stated (mostly because they don't exist in this world) but there is a black queer intersex character who seems to be autistic and a trans character with OCD and they own my heart. I want to keep reading forever because it hurts to leave them behind.
Be warned: I thought this was mainly an adventure story with discrimination as a background setting. It's very much in your face though.

I had a very hard time understanding and appreciating Giselle, but I found this challenge an important part of the story.
I want to sob for all of the characters and I want to hug Aster (although she probably wouldn’t be down for that so whatever kind of gesture of appreciation she’s prefer. but mostly I want a sequel.

This books setting deals with slavery and all the trauma and abuses that come with it. Difficult to determine which levels to put certain themes, as a lot is implied rather than explicitly stated/described but may still be triggeringbooknerd85's review against another edition
