Instant favorite! Great use of telling a current story with snippets of the past. Although it was a bit hard to follow with the audiobook because of the back and fourth, it definitely tied everything up at the end. Over all great story, great pacing, and great writing. A story with a very dark beginning yet has a silver lining and showcases how someone’s loss and grief can be the very thing that brings them to new relationships that reminds them of love, and brings them to a new world of possibilities with someone new.
I don’t think there’s an antagonist in this story, if anything, from the 3 main characters are the protagonists and their own antagonists. It is beautifully written where you can really feel how all the characters are feeling, you understand their grief and their actions. Although you can’t justify what some of them did, you can understand why they did it.
A great read for anyone who is dealing with grief and anyone who wants to find solace in tears.

This book was a fantastic read. The pacing, the rituals, the form of demonic magic, the secret societies, and the historical time it took place, during the AIDS epidemic in the 80s-90s, are all well done. I don't have much to say about this book, but you must read it in order to understand what I’m saying. The characters are all memorable, and there is a strong sense of found family that brings it all together. This is a good one-off story that starts and ends without the need to continue the story (although I wish it did continue). One thing I really did enjoy is how good the author made use of the different characters' perspectives and how they all tie into each other. Overall, I think everyone who likes queer fiction/fantasy, but doesn't like huge fantasy like LOTR or GOT, should read this because it is an easy read in the sense that there isn't an entire world to keep track of. It takes place in our world.
