Avi Cantor Has Six Months To Live by Sacha Lamb

3.0

I really wanted to love this more than I did. Unfortunately something about the writing didn't click for me. And I wanted a bit more of Avi as a character - basically everything I know about him is that he's trans, jewish, depressed and bullied. Some of that dissatisfaction is probably due to the representation of depression, and how it sort of eats up everything else. Which is a good and realistic representation of depression. But I would have liked a few more glimpses to flesh him out as a character.

Oh well. I did like this, but I think it's my head more than my heart that likes this, which is why I'm dissatisfied. Maybe I had too high expectations as well.

The best part of this story was undoubtedly the demon part. I don't know, maybe wholesome demons is my new favourite thing in fiction? More demons, please.
