The deck: Beautiful overall.
Cardstock: on the thin side but not the worst I've seen. Should stand up to regular use all right.
Guide book: body positive but otherwise worthless.
Box: Sturdy. Good quality.
Art wise this is a very interesting deck. What caught my eye about it is that it doesn't shy away from male nudity. Many characters in the deck have an almost genderless or genderfluid appearance about them. There are feminine but handsome men and flat chested but beautiful women. There is room for interpretation around the characters.
The themes of the cards are diverse enough the deck could be used, maybe in conjunction with a tarot deck, to really get some deep readings, but really, only if you are an intuitive reader. The guidebook has next to nothing of value to say about the meaning of the cards. Because of that, as a card reader, you need to be able to take the title and art of the card and derive meaning from these for the context of your reading.
The guide book itself is body positive and has nice affirmations for the card meanings, but the actual body diversity in the art is your standard thin and fit idealized characters. There is some racial diversity as well which was not something I was sure I could expect with this deck.
Overall I am happy with it and I think I will be able to get some decent readings out of it. It almost seems more on the side of being a novelty deck than an actual tool for divination, spiritual growth, etc. Though it could potentially be a decent deck for self love and perhaps the most basic of guidance. I feel that it is mostly something an experienced intuitive reader who doesn't need to rely on rigid and fixed card meanings would get the most out of. I'm not sure it's beginner friendly at all, and certainly not for everyone.
