Trans horror with themes of antifascism is right up my alley but I'm bummed to say I didn't really care for this book. Like a lot of other reviewers, I think both the book's message and horror elements could've been more effective in a short story format. As it was, some passages felt like filler and the pacing was off. The writing was fine but felt a bit juvenile at times, especially in the first third of the book. 

I'm also a bit confused by the overall message of the book. And I'm uncertain about fascism as being rooted in some kind of paranormal evilness. It reminds me of the dangers of blaming racism, homophobia, etc on mental illness. The scary thing about fascism is that normal humans just like me are willing and able to take on the most horrific beliefs. The normalcy of it is terrifying. To be fair, Rumfitt did show characters who were conflicted and/or who held internalized unconscious bigotry. Either way, this wasn't a book for me but maybe it's your jam.
