John and Emily are a perfectly normal couple living in near-future suburban America, with plans to attend a perfectly normal Halloween party with Emily dressed in a perfectly normal android costume. But Emily has an accident, so John steps up to take her place, and that’s where things start to go wrong. Because the hollowed-out android they bought from John’s brother is supposed to be dead, and isn’t supposed to be influencing his actions, and when the time comes to take it off, it’s supposed to let him out...
A novel of transformation, alienation, and isolation.

I knew that there was going to be so much more than it seemed when I started reading Kimmy, and I could not have been more right. This is an incredibly smart book, one that I haven't been able to stop thinking about since I put it down. Greaves' writing is deceptively nonchalant, before diving deep into the psychological impact of the abuse and discrimination brought as a result of transmisogyny. Absolutely worth a read.
