i really enjoyed this book. I didn’t expect Julia’s relationships to be so dark, but I think it brought a good light to the way gay relationships can be just as toxic and manipulative as straight relationships. I like Julia a lot, and it was nice to read about someone finding their place in the queer community as a newly out person. I also liked the development of Julia’s non romantic relationships
