I personally enjoyed this a lot! For a few years now, I've heard a lot of praise for this book, with nearly all the people who talk about it being relatively vague (I can see why, given how short it is,) but saying it's very cute. And I'm happy to say it IS as cute as everyone has said. It focuses on a gay trans man walking into his new internship gig and gradually falling for his supervisor, who might also be attracted to him as well. For anyone not aware, I also want to give the heads-up this novella does have some spicy content in it, and also due to its short nature, it ends with a lot of the plot points just kind of unresolved, so if any of that bothers you, just be aware. As for me, I had a lot of fun with this and I'm very glad I got the chance to read this at last!
