4.5
A really compelling and fun read, with surprisingly deep themes. There's a content note for some pretty graphic sexual content though, which might not be everyone's cup of tea. That being said, I really liked the way the sex was used to reflect the narrator's emotional termoil, self image, and evolving self-acceptance.
Graphic: Sexual content
Moderate: Ableism
