Thank you NetGalley and TOR books for this eARC in exchange for an honest review.
This is slightly different than the others I’ve read of his, and it’s just as amazing as the others. I would call it a dystopian, futuristic, queer take on Pinocchio. I thought it was brilliant and had as much heart as his others!
Read this if you’re looking for:
- Magically realistic SciFi
- Dystopian setting
- Asexual rep
- Queer Pinocchio retelling
- Brave little toaster vibes
- Found family
I don’t want to spoil anything but Nurse Ratched is my new favorite character! She’s such a smart ass. Genius, T.J.! Well done!!
I cannot wait for this to be released in April so I can scoop up a physical copy for my shelves. This cover is as gorgeous as all his others!!
