If you enjoy flawed characters, self reflection, and queerness, I think you’ll really like this novel. Peters does a great job of using characters as vehicles for themes of the dangers of living half truths and how that decimates your relationships with others. There are so many ways to lie and hide from yourself and to wind up working your way into miserable patterns without ever realizing how you got there. At least that is what I took away from this, in my very subjective reading experience - I know a lot of the other reviews didn’t enjoy this as much as I did.

The approaches to womanhood and transness were well written and clever, offering social commentary in a really appealing (and heartbreaking) way.
