This book ripped my sapphic soul apart and put it back together again. Also fed my love for historical fiction/drama. Deeply researched with delightful author’s notes at the end about archival research process. 10/10 recommend.

Content Warnings

Moderate: Homophobia, Racial slurs, Racism, Xenophobia, and War

Novel takes place in 1950s San Francisco. Language used by characters reflects this but does not take away from the story & instead serves to reflect how much things have (and also haven’t) changed.
