This was wonderfully queer with a happy ending I appreciated. Loved every second of it. But hey, this is Ashley and her books are always amazing

The writing itself isn’t bad. It’s good. But it’s so slow that it gave me a reading slump.

This book was everything I wished for and more. I will never understand what POC go through, and it makes me sick to my stomach to know that this isn’t just a story made out of thin air, and that this actually happened. Thank you to Jonny for writing such a masterpiece. It was more than wonderful.
