This one was something. I have to admit, I didn't know what to expect. Even knowing the book's theme, I couldn't visualize if I would like it, and how it would go. But wow. Less than 100 pages, and still, this was powerful. Some were hard to read, but the author writes in such a way, that you are immediately sucked into the story, and you don't want to put it down. I did, and yes it was the book's subject that made me take breaks. But I don't regret reading it, and I will probably read it again.

🥺🥺🥺 j'ai adoré. J'ai adoré le style de l'autrice mais aussi que même si le livre comporte (helas) de la transphobie ca reste assez léger. C'est beau et parfois même drôle

Okay. So I know a lot of people have mixed (or worse) feelings about this book.
But honestly, it was perfect for me. - It has lesbians, plot twists
- made me gasp in public
- almost made me cry in public,
- great character
- easy to read
- got me out of my reading slump.
Yes, I guessed some twists and I didn't fully understand how time passed in the story. But still freaking great to me. I understand the complaints though
