Well, that was a waste of time. I would've probably DNF'ed this book if it hadn't been a buddy read.

I love queer histroms, and I was super excited for one with trans rep. Sadly, I didn't vibe with it.

There was an incredibly slow start, then a rushed ending. No chemistry between the leads, LOTS of miscommunication that had me groaning in frustration, and just lots of dumb and hard to believe choices made. This one wasn't for me.

I read an eARC from Vintage Books.
