So, it has taken me a while to figure out what I wanted to say about this book. Many other reviewers have already stated the issues within this book and since I am late to the game I will keep this short.

Overall:
This book is very problematic in many ways and treads a very, veryyyy, dangerous line. The stereotypes used throughout this book are disgusting and detrimental to the LGBTQ community, along with the mental health community. This book belongs in the 50's and not 2022. Most of us readers understand that this is dystopian, and it is dark, but this villainizes a marginalized community that already experiences so much discrimination.
