A strong fit for readers of queer literary fiction, social satire, messy-group-dynamics novels, and books that understand that a dinner party can become a minor emotional war crime without anyone technically raising their voice.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHenry Holt paperback, first edition, first printing, 2023.
