Not my typical queer read, but for what it was, it was good. Very independent, unique approach. A shorter length that I can appreciate.
Will likely not pick it up again and would probably only recommend to someone who almost strictly reads LGBTQ+ works.

(I received an ARC for free via NetGalley in return for an honest review.)

The first page had me curious and wanting to know more about her marriage, but then it turn and I got to the point where I just wanted to finish the book because it was short. It was a boring book in my opinion and I think it was because it was not my usual genre.

queer in a wlw, a poly relationship

a bit too disconnected for me. though its clear how they are interwoven i would liked a bit more -- and this could truly just be because of the translation.

I just didn’t get pulled into this story. Perhaps a few items were lost in translation
