I liked this one a lot. It probably could’ve done with a little editing and told a few pages shorter, but it was well done. I hope these two got to live long enough to see the Respect for Marriage Act. Even though the current regime is dismantling all the LGBTQ+ progress over that took decades (and some may argue, centuries) to attain with a few strokes of a pen, they still deserve to see and opt in or out of the Respect for Marriage act within their lifetimes. Given this book is a midcentury story, they might just be able to die with that legal recognition and before the dystopia we live in today.
