Really enjoying the audiobook! Honestly, I barely knew who Bob the Drag Queen was going into this, so I went into this with an open mind. I'm really enjoying the narration and I can't stop listening.

While I'm enjoying the concept of this and the small snippets of lyrics when we get them, I fear I might be a bit too SFF-minded to not be bothered by the lack of world-building around The Return (even though this isn't trying to be a sci-fi novel).

Like... the absolute logistical nightmare ALONE behind something like this. Where are all the Returnees going to live? How do you get them to adapt to modern society? What's to be done with Returnees who committed atrocities in life? I don't need a How? or a Why? answered, but I think more world-building would only bolster the themes of the novel if only it took the opportunity to do so.

“The failure, however, of mainstream, actually existing white male homosexuality to enact liberation and its embrace instead of full integration into the burning house of the couple-form, the family unit, and what we might hopefully call late-stage capitalism is real, and it is arranged on three primary axes: first, its separation from and fear of gender non-conformity; second, its simultaneous appropriation of the bodies and sexualities of racialized people and denial of those people’s full humanity, political participation, and equality; and third, its incessant focus on the bourgeois project of ‘sexuality’ itself.”

Why is this entire paragraph just one sentence 😭😭

I never want to see more than 5 commas in one sentence
