dark tense fast-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? Plot
• Strong character development? No
• Loveable characters? It's complicated
• Diverse cast of characters? Yes
• Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

It's been a long time I read a graphic novel about queer people that was made worse by having queer characters. But boy howdy. If there was a hierarchy of books to keep us warm after the earth froze over, this would be at the top of my list to burn. I wish I could unread this book.
