Deeply queer through and through, ambiguous, complicated, and chaotic, this was a complex book to enjoy but I was drawn into it. I can see why it's so buzzy - there's a lot going on, and I imagine there's wildly different things to take from it. I just finished it and I'm still processing it, particularly the fittingly ambiguous, uncertain ending.
