It's queer and it's cute. But it also had some heavy topics. I liked how there was a bit of a found family trope in there. The book also had some beautiful quotes! I annotaded it.
The author really has a way with words. I also like that it is set in 1909, but that the queer characters were still shown.
Great book. Would recommend to ppl who are looking for: queer books, magicians, circus vibes, found family, ...

Perhaps it is important to check the trigger warnings before reading this book, although know that there's no homophobia included, which I agree with the author, was the correct choice for this story.
