This was a cute little anthology. Picked up the webcomic during a comiXology sale a while back but didn't get around to finishing it until now.
There was a wide range of stories and art styles here. I think my favorite was probably Mix Plate by Emily Forster. It took place in Hawaii and I just really enjoyed the family dynamics and struggles portrayed. My second favorite would have to be one that wasn't even a comic, but a short story with some accompanying pictures.
The rest were a bit too much of a mixed bag for me. Inconsistent or undeveloped styles and difficult panels to read. Still a nice little collection though.

The seven stories of this comic and prose anthology pay loving tribute to the BL genre that clearly feed the creator's imaginations and artistic styles. Each story is sweet in its own way but for me the standouts are Aatmaja Pandya's "Radio Silence", a love story between an artist and a radio DJ, and Emily Forster's "Mix Plate" about a couple bonding over food and family in Hawaii.

This is a lovely and inclusive anthology featuring boys loving boys and men loving men. It features seven short comics of different genres such as contemporary, fantasy and scifi. My favorite stories are by Kou Chen and S.M. Vidaurri. I was surprised to see a mostly text story with just a couple of art pieces by Shivana Sookdeo. I didn't expect it in what I thought as comics anthology.
