From the second I first laid eyes on Make Room for Love, I knew I would love it. I'm an absolute sucker for slow burn, and every single detail I learned just had me wanting to read the book more and more. A trans femme lead? A pro union plot? Learning to embrace risk after a breakup? Sign me up.
Mira and Isabel are both absolutely fantastic characters. They both parallel each other in incredibly interesting ways, and their individual struggles were complex and extremely human. Watching both of them overcome their struggles was absolutely enjoyable. Their chemistry is absolutely impeccable, but Liao doesn't let up on the tension of their relationship until the end. It's rare for me to see two characters constantly make mistakes with their relationship and completely understand why they're making those mistakes every single time.
Mira's union subplot was one of the most interesting subplots I've read in a romance novel all year. The importance of community and support networks really shines through, and hit at the perfect time given everything going on right now.
This was a fantastic read, absolutely recommended.
