really interesting collection. great poems and original ideas. rtc.

End bi erasure!

Her Him and I by Christian Weissman is a beautiful debut collection of poetry. Weissman's verses challenge hegemonic masculine narratives and captures the queer experience of bisexual men (one that is often omitted from discussion). However, I did find it to be quite repetitive and reminiscent of Rupi Kaur style poetry.

Queer as Folklore is the book I wish I had when I did my folklore and oral traditions module two years ago in university. It is informative, diverse and recognises colonial impact on oral tradition. This is not a read you can whip through: you need to sit with it, be patient and allow the stories to be told.

definitely some introspective, original prose and I quite enjoyed the solarpunk vs cyberpunk aesthetics. however, this would have been improved by either being a series of short stories or novellas.

Overall, this was mid. I enjoyed daisy miller and how she doesn’t conform to society as well as seeing her from Winterborne’s perspective. Raised an eyebrow a few times at her dying from ‘Roman disease’ when her Italian companion is described in terms of his ‘race’ and otherness.

The Turn of the Screw was a bit of a word vomit. Maybe I’ll try reading this again after watching the Netflix show but probably not because there are other things I want to read.

this was fine. if you want queer horror, I would recommend parallel hells by leon craig and things we say in the dark by kirsty logan instead.

confused af but YUTA IS BACK!!!! and what an interesting role he now plays
