A review by ohmage_resistance
In Shadowed Dreams by S. Judith Bernstein
adventurous
fast-paced
- Diverse cast of characters? Yes
I enjoyed this one. The prose could have used a little bit more polishing at times and it's a bit meta about books/reading in a way that I'm not the biggest fan of, but otherwise it's pretty nice. I especially like the rep of chronic migraines, that's a form of disability we don't see a lot of representation for, and I thought it was well handled here.
Graphic: Chronic illness, Gun violence, and Blood
Moderate: Panic attacks/disorders
Minor: Ableism, Transphobia, Antisemitism, and Sexual harassment
Minor mentions are pretty minor. Chronic illness is representation of a major character who gets chronic migraines.
