I wouldn't say I'm into westerns, but when I see a new one described as being a bit out of the ordinary in terms of gender, I feel inspired to pick it up. This feels very historical-fiction-like but certainly your typical western gunslinging is included. It mostly takes place in a brothel and shows the ladies in a very emphatic light, just trying to make a living. The queer "twist" was a highlight just to make it different and the story went in a way I couldn't have guessed. I was entertained!
