Review of 'Paul takes the form of a mortal girl' on 'GoodReads'

4 stars

Joyful, adventurous and sexy. Paul is the ultimate queer fantasy--a shapeshifter who can take any form. The book doesn't get deep into Paul's gender, which I actually find refreshing. Instead he just cavorts around sleeping with any and everyone. The backdrop of queer theory references was tongue in cheek and funny for me, but might be alienating for some.

Overall, a fun and sexciting read. I would have given it 5 stars but it just ends abruptly in a really ambivalent and unsatisfying way.
