I thought the bisexual representation was a little not good at many points, but maybe that's just me. It moved incredibly slow for such a short book, but that isn't necessarily a bad thing. The writing is pretty good, and I really like Ava's dynamic with both Julian and Edith. If you are looking for a shorter book and you would enjoy a witty fiction with modern political undertones this may be your thing. I personally wasn't that captivated by it.
