Not quite es bad as i expected

I ges the author just went full TERF after this. So, yeah, there is transfobic stuff in there, but i’m not sure it is beyond what yu would get from the standard British transfobe.

Anyway. The rest of the book. My main complaint is that it is too long. Like the author was too famous to be be properly edited. Pretty much every paragraf should hav been edited down to half the length and about half the senes cut outright. For a 100 page crime novella it could hav worked. At this length yu ar expecting something more than a standard whodunit, but no, that is all yu get.
