I ATE THIS UP and there were no crumbs left
The pacing was soooo good!!!! Also the ending is left ambiguous but to me it was ambiguous in a “I can imagine the future for them and I’m happy with that” and not an unsatisfied way. I feel like some references were lost on me (part of why I want to buy this for myself now) and some of the transitions between past, present, thoughts and reality were a little bit difficult to get as a reader, but it never took me so far out that I felt like I wanted to put it down.
I also love the way this so genuinely portrays the experimental/figuring things out phase of being queer.
