Super bananas but overt in its anti-transphobia message. The boys made me so frustrated throughout the book, I’m glad Sammie had her friends and her wife to carry her through all that. Honestly El Campo sounded like a horror world even before the cult and monster stuff.
Whenever I see MLM, my first thought is “men loving men” nice. But it’s gross instead and pyramid schemes run by “bros” are ruining society. I hope the full book is in color cause I liked the coloring of the first few pages but then it went b&w.
Super fun fantasy world about a trans woman just trying to be accepted by her old cis friends. The importance of community and acceptance is so important.
Karma is a weird pyramid scheme monster, I guess.
