Very entertaining story about ... well, death. But also life, and love - plus a lot of the big things, and a lot of the small things.
It's an easy-to-read, very well-written and edited, story with a lot of humour and light-hearted narrative that covers a lot of ground from the question 'what is it like to be trans' to 'what does really matter in life' and even muses about 'life, the universe, and everything'. Yet, it never gets preachy, it simply tells a story. What you do with that is entirely up to you.
There's also a little bit of spice, but that's not primarily what this story is about.
I had a lot of fun and a really good time reading it.
If you like philosophical stories with a humorous narrative (and can at least be open minded towards trans-people and their experiences): this is for you!
The story ends on a bit of a cliffhanger but is, despite it being a relatively short read, in itself a well-rounded novella.
Now... I'd like to read more. Hope the sequel will be out soon.
