Super nice to see an actual queer ghost story, where the ghosts as well as the contemporary characters are queer.
My one issue, and it really was uncomfortable, was the competiveness and cattiness of Vans past lovers. It was a poly developed element and reinforced the trope that women are in competition with each other for partners. It's a pretty gross thing that usually pops up in straight books rather than queer ones.
BUT I loved that the ghost story was steeped in queerness. And the generational connections were an interesting touch. I'm so glad they can rest together in peace.
