such a heartwarming queer story♡ i wish it was a little longer but i do think the author made a great job developing roy and cecily's relationship even though its a short book. as a transmasc-enby i think roy's portrayal as a person and also as a love interest is so refreshing and amazing, he's such a nice person, even when he feels unsafe because of the men he's surrounded with at work, he's bright and admirable, and i just adore how caring he is towards cecily!! being completely honest,
i didn't really think the last scenes were necessary, because the author already established that they do see each other as love interests and care deeply about each other. though, i must say, its also very refreshing to read a sex scene were trans people are comfortable in their bodies without being invalidated because of it !! i enjoyed the way the author portrayed their sexual intimacy :)
. overall, a great quick read, my queer heart is full and happy
