I almost read this entire book in one sitting. The only reason I didn't is because I was tired enough that my eyes were hurting. I read the first ~140 pages at once and finished the final ~30 the next day. It's a short book, and a quick read. And I absolutely ate it up.

It was an easy read, and the writing was a mixed bag. This book gives us amazing quotes such as "we notice the silence of men. We depend upon the silence of women", yet it seems like every other page the lines "'oh,' she said" or "she said nothing at all" were used. I think there could have been some better writing in that sort of regard.

Regardless though, I loved this book, and the queer representation made me happy as an asexual. I can't wait to read Down Among the Sticks and Bones, and I expect I'll check out some more of Seanan McGuire's works as well.
