4.0

What a fun read for the month of pride, I’ve never read a book quite like this. A queer, non-binary, alien main character.
At first attempting to live with family, then eventually going out on their on to find themselves and some mates
Towards the end I felt as though it lost a (tiny) bit of its footing, but still had an overall satisfying ending.
I didn’t like that they went to Tomas and Jesuas home town to find Aaor mates but then Jesua only has one like at the end of the book. What about Tomas!
