This graphic novel , a memoir, has been banned in some states in the US. Now a Queensland politician has been trying to ban it here in Australia. Taking his case to the high court!! I can‘t believe it. It was published in 2020.
It is Maias story. I‘m looking forward to reading it .
pickI feel like I should own this book just so I can hand it to people whenever I get stuck in certain conversations.
Usually when reading works of this type I take notes, evaluating how I'm feeling about the information presented, how useful I think it is as a resource. This time I honestly got carried away by the writing. 1/?
Always down for a tree metaphor 🌳☺️
And I LOVE “gender-expansive“ as a term.
Questioning! 👏🏻 Rigid gender norms
Challenging! 👏🏻 Rigid gender norms
Benefits people of all genders!
pickThese Sworn Soldier novellas are must reads for me. This was a great follow up to the first novella based on The House of Usher. Great cast of supporting characters which leads me to hope we will get a book 3.
Book 21 of 2024
pickA short, creepy read. Alex‘s bumbling investigations and attempts to charm the grumpy widow were entertaining. T. Kingfisher has a way of describing the goriest scenes that make you feel like it‘s happening to you.
"A poet once wrote that the woods of Gallacia are as deep and dark as God's sorrow."
An appropriately eerie beginning.

pickMan, you know a book‘s good when you look up and realize you don‘t know how much time has passed. This book was incredible. It‘s by far the best book I‘ve read this year, no doubt. I‘m always down for a queer pirate book, especially one that features a transmasc pirate with magic and a plot to kill le Diablo. This book was so good! 5🌟🏳️⚧️
