2 women of color in academia/art world, traversing work, life, & a long distance relationship after seeing each other again for the first time in years post grad school. i loved the representation & the reality of queer, PoC in academia & the hardships they face. overall I didn‘t fully connect with the characters, might be me, not a huge fan of LDR books bc the characters aren‘t even together most of the book. sorta boring at times, maybe just me
