A unique story with an unforgettable main character.
A truly original way to tell the story of a horrible event, but still with real-world connotations and consequences.
Jam’s family and best friend, Redemption, have to be some of the most supportive and loving people to ever exist! Every trans person should have such people in their lives!!
Pet has to be the most original character I’ve read…both scary and ominous, yet also understanding and kind to Jam. A singular mission, but still has a “heart.”
Highly highly recommend.
