Aashvi, Kate, Bette,and others form a "family" that is as messy and beautiful as any other. But when Aashvi calls out a fellow queer woman for a cultural appropriation, the fallout turns into a full-blown brawl, leading to shocking revelations, betrayals, and ultimately, a reckoning with the past and a vision for the future.
GBT Themes: This novel explores themes of queerness, trans identity, cultural appropriation, and the complexities of relationships within the queer community. It offers a candid and insightful portrayal of the experiences of queer women.
