The cover is what drew me into this book. This is a character-driven story about a genderqueer book conservator that feels trapped by her gender identity, her relationship with a man who wishes she was a man, and her artistic block, Throughout the book, Dawn tries to understand how to live in a world that doesn’t see her for who she truly is. She struggles a lot with different areas in her life like religion, family, daily life, art and feels unwelcome in queer spaces while at the same time has issues connecting with her straight peers. This could definitely be considered a coming of age story. Overall, I thought it was a great read and I’m glad I decided to pick it up!
