Über diesen Titel
Someone wants trans girl hacker-for-hire Kiera Umehara in prison or dead-but for what? Failing to fix their smart toilet?
It's 2032 and we live in the worst cyberpunk future. Kiera is gigging her ass off to keep the lights on, but her polycule's social score is so dismal they're about to lose their crib. That's why she's out here chasing cheaters with Angel Herrera, a luddite P. I. who thinks this is The Big Sleep. Then the latest job cuts too deep-hired to locate Herrera's ex-best friend (who's also Kiera's pro bono attorney), they find him murdered instead. Their only lead: a stick of Nag Champa incense dropped at the scene.
Next thing Kiera knows, her new crush turns up missing-sans a hand (the real one, not the cybernetic), and there's the familiar stink of sandalwood across the apartment. Two crimes, two sticks of incense, Kiera framed for both. She told Herrera to lose her number, but now the old man might be her only way out of this bullshit . . .
A fast-talker with a heart of gold, Bang Bang Bodhisattva is both an odd-couple buddy comedy that never knows when to shut up, and an exploration of finding yourself and your people in an ever-mutable world.

Even tho I was initially put off by the writing style (specifically the "quirky" online lingo), I came around to really liking all the characters and the dynamic between the two main ones especially.
However the story never gripped me to the extent I had hoped (I was never particularly tense or worried about anyone), tho that changed somewhat by the very end of the book.
The narration is also great!
it's nice to see some incredibly upfront and unapologetic trans and queer stories 🏳️⚧️
