A nice, queer, post-apocalypse read. For this being a thick book, it went by quickly. I enjoyed the pacing and characters. Maybe the sexism in the world was a little heavy (i.e. slightly overdone) for me, I know it's modeled after Puritanism, which is just like the book, but it still felt heavy-handed for me.
