She/Her. 20s. Most of my reading is trying to keep up with my book club. On my own I like SF/F, manga (I track that on MAL,) trans lit and sapphic romance, as well as some non-fiction about topics I find fascinating, like dance music, videogames, psychoactive substances, and computers. I also try to read theory, classics and more academic works, though I've struggled with that since I was younger. My main fedi is currently @throatmuppet@xyzzy.link.

Here's hoping, after this one, this is the last story I'll read featuring new york as a key aspect of the plot for a while. New York as a refuge for young queers; as a place those young queers need to get away from; as a place old socialites need to get away from; as the backdrop for a cartographic drama; as safe harbor for immigrants from Tehran; and now as a big applesauce post-apocalypse. All worthwhile creative endeavors, some even worth reading- the only problem is I'm @$#%?&! sick of it!

Yet another time that I struggle to think of anything that could explain the many-fold modes and emotions this book put me through. I am much gladder to have read it than I ever thought I would be, starting out. I encourage all my queer siblings to sit with this, if they are on stable ground to do so. A titan to wrestle with and embrace in turns, in heart and mind. Will probably have to return to this at a later time.

This month is looking to be remarkably exhausting. this book helped. I liked it a bit less than the first. Is that the fault of the book or my circumstances? who can tell. Abbot delivers exactly what I need.
