There are a lot of things I liked about this book– queer characters, interesting setting, the fact that the expected romances were circumvented (can we have a whole book about Riley?)

And then there was the “barren” plot line. Because g-d forbid a book handle a young woman dealing with her body's issues without it turning out to be fucking MAGIC. And g-d forbid a book handle a female character's ostensible inability to have kids as anything other than a fucking “deficiency”.
