I didn’t enjoy this book as much as the others in the series. It took a long time to get going, and the jumps in time felt overused, making it feel disjointed in places.
The exploration of gender and sexuality was interesting but felt a bit halfhearted, used as an interesting plot point as opposed to being intrinsic parts of 3 dimensional characters. It could have been taken so much further and the book would have been much more powerful.

Very slow, the main selling plot of the book is a few chapters towards the end, NB/trans character identity felt clumsy, overall I was disappointed.
