Hard Place by Gab Torr

Description Everyone’s healing. No-one’s happy. For years, Billys decisions have been made for her by long-term girlfriend Rose, leaving her free not to think for or about herself. But when they break up and Billy is left without anywhere to live, shes forced to take up an unappealing but affordable SpareRoom ad. Her new flatmates, Sid and Rhoda, are the kinds of people who talk very seriously about taking accountability, adhering to the flats community guidelines and holding space for one another. Meals are communal by force, polyamory is assumed, and whatever the problem, capitalisms usually to blame. Yes, Rhodas parents own the flat, but that doesnt matter: theyre unapologetically political and loudly queer, and slowly Billy becomes enmeshed in their radical, vulnerable world. But as Billys past starts to catch up with her, and all of their boundaries begin to crumble, each of them must reckon with what they truly stand for and what theyll sacrifice to hold onto it.
