Fish in a Barrel by Amy Lane
Did not finish book. Stopped at 30%.

pseudo activism not authorship.  political soapboxing and no coherent plot anywhere to be found.  reads like an identity politics checklist always talking about superficial physical characteristics as if they defined the entirety of the characters.  ridiculous leftist twaddle.
