<body><p>Overall, I do love the thrust of the book. It's a story of change, identity, fear of the unknown, and finding strength in numbers. Seeing Lyall on his journey is encouraging, as he faces challenges, engages with others who are going through their own, and receives support and encouragement in return. The premise seems dark, but I think that's what makes Lyall's journey through the darkness all the more uplifting. We may journey with others, but ultimately we take the final step ourselves. Nothing is certain in life except change.</p></body>
