It Gets Even Better: Stories of Queer Possibility by Isabela Oliveira, Jed Sabin

4.5

As with most things I read aloud to my 14y/o, I let them take the lead with ratings. The following are the stories they rated 5/5 in this collection. 

  • "Frequently Asked Questions About the Portals at Frank's Late-Night Starlite Drive-In" by Kristen Koopman

  • "Midnight Confetti" by D.K. Marlowe

  • "Venti Mochaccino, No Whip, Double Shot of Magic" by Aimee Ogden

  • "I'll Have You Know" by Charlie Jane Anders

  • "The Cafe Under the Hill" by Ziggy Schutz

  • "(don't you) love a singer" by TS Porter

  • "The After Party" by Ben Francisco

I'm a little disappointed the last one wasn't the closer to this anthology as it would have been perfect there, but I wasn't the editor, so what're you gonna do?
