5 stars. Disappoint Me has grabbed hold of my heart and I hope it never lets go.
Disappoint Me is a dual narrative story centred around Max, a trans woman, and her cis boyfriend Vincent. Max's narrative is present day and Vincent's is set ~10 years prior, during his gap year in Thailand. If I give much more detail than this I fear I will spoil something - I think this one is best read with as little knowledge about it as possible! The simplicity of the premise is what makes this story as captivating as it is.
This book is poignant, raw, and beautiful. There are some laugh-out-loud moments that the queers will love, followed by moments of deep reflection that had me thinking about my own life. The balance between these is perfect and adds so much to the overall tone and feel of the book and it kept me hooked page after page.
Thank you to Random House Publishing Group and NetGalley for providing me an advanced copy.
