Very well written, evenly paced. Not much spice and more introspective than I expected. This book covers a lot, including the difficulties of being trans during that time period, chronic pain, drug dependency, and ptsd. It also dealt with a larger cast of characters than expected. If we had focused solely on the main couple it could have been 100 or more pages shorter. It was not what I wanted when I picked it up but I recognize how good it was.
