A trans woman sets out to take advantage of a rich friend group and learns who they are in the process. I can definitely see that this book has a market and will be enjoyed by many, but unfortunately I struggled to get into this one properly. I didn't like the characters and while unlikable characters can be fun to read about, I didn't really find this to be the case with these ones. I suspect this at lest in part has to do with some of the people I've had to deal with in real life. But if you like the sound of a trans woman surrounded by dysfunctional friend group drama (I feel like this makes up too much of the book for my taste) then I hope you enjoy the story!

I received a free cop of this book in exchange for an honest review. As always, all opinions are my own.… (mais)

I love the diversity in this book. Not really much else to say to be honest. It felt crass and not at all romantic. For me there was no spark between Nandans and … *looks at blurb*... Dave. Please understand that this wasn’t horrible, it just wasn’t engaging enough for me. I don’t really remember much of what that happened and I only finished it about 40mins ago. It kind of just plodded along while Nandans explored his sexuality. I absolutely loved ‘We Contain Multitudes’ and ‘Aristotle and Dante Discover the Secrets of the Universe’ so I might get the tissues out and do some re-reading.
