Mattie Lubchansky

The ending is real, and it has a zany energy, but way too nonsensical for me.

Don't let my lack of intelligent things to say about this discourage you from reading it; I liked it quite a lot. More emotions than I've seen from Lubchansky's work before. They fit it into their Futurama-inspired storytelling style well, though there's nothing particularly subtle happening here.

The book starts by examining some interesting quandaries about how much transphobia one should endure from the people who knew you when, but then devolves into a ridiculous supernatural conspiracy and bloodbath that offers a very unsubtle solution. I just couldn't find any enthusiasm at all in myself for the fantasy/sci-fi elements.

A satirical look at Antifa that incorporates all the rumors and conspiracies bandied about by those who oppose or fear the masked activists. Righteous, jack-booted police work hard to deal out justice while dodging calls to disband.

I found it humorous until I imagined Donald Trump reading it, waving it around, and saying, "See, see, I was right. They've confessed. It's all right in here."
