If you like stream-of-consciousness narration this is a solid read, and I can't fault the quality of

the prose.  The mystery/supernatural aspect was clearly solvable almost from the outset, but

ONLY if you know your tropes.  Sadly, this means either you know what is going on and

therefore the narrative is slow, or you don't know the formula and therefore the end feels like a

sudden reinvention of the facts.  Some interesting components were mixed in there (I would have

loved more about the historical presentation of gender-nonconforming people) but overall, it

was a long read for a resolution that didn’t hit the mark for me.
