In this Warm Bodies style retelling of Shakespeare’s most frustrating love story, the reader follows two characters—August and Jane—as they discover themselves an unravel the mystery of Jane’s existence. The plot line mirrors the New York subway tunnels, describing quintessential queer experiences along the turns like push-pins on a detective’s evidence board. Would recommend this book for those wanting a rainy day or fireside BookTok-cute queer drama with a Salt Bae sprinkling of family trauma.
