It's funny, but it took a while for this book to grow on me partially because I had a hard time relating to our two main characters. I exist on the opposite side of their initial beliefs and feelings regarding queerness that it was hard to relate or even forgive them for their words and actions. But this book is an invtation to soften and listen to people who aren't like you and who you don't understand. Aaannnd it's also about violent revenge, boy howdy. It did feel a bit melodramatic and unrealistic, but hey, it was a fun ride. This book was just so completely out of my wheelhouse but by the end of it I found myself emotionally invested.
