I think this book was good. Really good. It was an interesting and moving collection of short stories, all set in a queer future and all variant in perspective and approach. They were diverse in identity and in development and in background and in perspective and all around lovely. Som stories were slower than others, and some i liked more than others. Overall, though, i really loved this book and its manifestations around queerness and a queer future. I think that it was really well curated and the short stories flowed together quite well. It was slow at timess which made it difficult to keep at it when reading it but when it was good it was REALLLYYYY good. I think also that this book provides a great exploration of the diversity of folks identities and how beautiful that is. Just a great read to read if you’re a queer person. I enjoyed this very much.
