Im DNFing.

This book is written by a non trans person for other non trans people.

The constant misgendering, misogynistic, white knighting, childlike purity is too overbearing. Its unreadable.

I am disappointed in how the author has set up this book.

Author tells us that Simon is used to researching, i dont think like was used. But we are shown hes a cautious person. He takes like 10 chapters to even sign the contract.

But does he read it? Well no. Because the plot cant happen if he does read it.

I get the Verasssi doctor, Hooper(?), is supposed to be the time pressure. But there is no real threat.

The desicion needed a believeable time pressure or threat. Simon is fight adverse. Pop in some scavengers/pirates/space enemies that attack the military ship. He leaves now with the Verassi or stays in an active fire zone. No brainer that he will leave.

There is also supposedly real time pressure for Morn to initiate the contract. Simon "cares about people" and is definately attracted to Morn. He would feel obligated to help asap. I say throw him in with minimal augments or not fully adgusted ones. Season this half baked idea with some angst and hurt.

Because I'm sick and need something i can tune in and out of. But not vested in.

Or so i thought. I actually liked the first few chapters and expo dump. It was a little dumpy but i didn't feel like it was dry or excessive.

But that's not what I'm here to say.

They brush off nonbinaryness. In the first three chapters. We know LI, Morna, is not a woman. The cover and lgbt tag tells us that. The scientists says THAT society doesnt use pronouns. But roughly translated the pronouns for LI are fae/fir!!! But also they/them. And i whattttt??
