When the Moon Was Ours by Anna-Marie McLemore
DID NOT FINISH: 56%

I feel so bad dnfing this book and I’m definitely in the minority in terms of my thoughts about it. I just think this type of book isn’t for me. I wasn’t into the writing style and the plot itself was uninteresting to me. I found myself not caring what happened even during parts that were supposed to get a reaction from me. I did enjoy the discussions of what it’s like to be transgender and the struggle of deciding who you truly are despite the expectations of those around you but that’s about all I enjoyed. I wanted to push myself to finish the last hundred pages but it’s just been sitting on my shelf so I’m officially giving up. I’m still open to trying more of their books in the future though!
