Book 9 of 2020 👍 Finished January 20 An almost perfect collection - with the disclaimer that one story made me very uncomfortable (Sweet). There was a couple of lines that were particularly jarring - so a CW for specifically nonbinary transphobia. I'm pretty sure based on what I've seen of the author's previous work, that it was well intentioned but it was pretty problematic. I really wasn't a fan of setting up nonbinary people as the oppressors. Laura Nyro at the Wedding felt a little bit out of place in a YA collection too, but it was still an interesting story. Was really excited that I recognized just about all the author's names (only really one whose name I hadn't seen and it turned out to be one of my favourites, so looking forward to checking out more of her work!) and loved the diversity of styles and identities included. Would be super excited to see another collection like this in the future! #Bookstagram #Reading #Book #Review #BookChallenge #BookDiary #Kindred #LoveOzYA #YA #QueerLit #AusLit #OwnVoices #Anthology #Activism #ShortStories #Feminism #LGBTQIAplus #Cafe #Melbourne #January #JMbooklist #JMbooklist2020 #Latergram
