"The book is really nice. Good representation of disabled folks."

"You can't tell whether people are gay by their looks and for the first time, I have witnessed a book that shows that even disabled people can be gay. With this in mind, I am utterly shocked, sobbing as I write this because it's a bittersweet tale of love. Unlike other romantic stories, it passionately describes a relationship without relying on the sex scene to carry it forward, instead focusing on love and the building of a relationship. So without further ado, I want to congratulate the author on crafting a blazing inferno of raw energy that explodes with passion and talent. If this was a movie, it would clearly be one of my favorites."
My Body is A Cage [Royalty #1]
"This is an engaging story with complex characters both in their sexuality and their relationships with their bodies. You have a leading character Cyrus in a wheelchair with fibromyalgia. The body in the cage. But the novel explores other enclosures. The barriers characters create themselves, especially fears about relationships and love. Then there are the cages and walls others try to impose around sexual differences or opinions about disability in general and hereditary disability in particular. Through sensitivity and love, others seek to open cages and salve actual scars of the body or heart. Cyrus is complex, a transitioned individual who had a child [ Yvette]. Cyrus explores a new relationship with Lance and yet is dealing with the shadow of their previous one with Tristan. And from the past emerges a custody fight for Yvette by her grandparents, which is a powerful story within the narrative. At heart, a human-centred story with broad themes like how relationships can grow, learning to express and accept love, the complexities of a disability inside a relationship, and learning to express yourself rather than burying yourself under societal relationship compliance or seeing yourself as a burden to another in a relationship and children being more than a bloodline. As the story states, we don’t know when love will find us, and we don’t decide whom you deserve. Everyone has baggage, and the novel explores this, yet everyone deserves to be loved: openly. Do Cyrus and Lance have the courage? Well worth reading to find out."
It is a great story
"The representation of disabled queer people is everything in here, how drastically life changes for them as well. Though I feel the writing can be improved a little more. Aside that, it is interesting and amazing so far"
