I'm so so glad we read this.

Of course there are some things in there that I dislike or am critical of, but the overall experience was overwhelmingly wonderful for me. It's a heartbreakingly beautiful reflection on queer existences and the patriarchy, in a mildly fantastical style, but like, it's always clear what all the things are actually about and that makes it hurt but in a way that I liked a lot. (Except I'm still not sure if the fairies are fairies or fairies. I guess some things remain a mystery to me. But I guess they're fairies, and maybe also fairies.)
