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.
