| This debut work of personal nonfiction bringing together issues relating to healthcare, kink, and consent blew me away with its depth of insight. I predict it will become canonical to consent studies and care work discourse and have an impact as deep ...more | |

| Thrillingly manipulative and deliciously wry, Murder Bimbo is a genius take on the unreliable narrator and unequivocally pro-sex worker. I love and admire this book. | |

Reread 12/2025 and blown away anew! This is one of my favorites of this quarter-century, no question. ** I'm blown away by this book, which is a new kind of autofiction/anti-memoir/whatever/yes. Black Wave is simultaneously vintage Michelle Tea and som ...more |

I was honored to blurb this new book from Sara Jaffe (author of Dryland)! These stories crackle and hum, bristle and buzz; they charge the air with their characters’ queer wants while asking and showing what stories--and music--can do. And the prose! ...more |

| Going to be processing this one for a while! Unlike any other novel I've read... except other novels by Shirley Jackson. I can't believe this was just her second novel. Wow. Incredible psychological acuity; formidable powers of social observation. A ...more | |
“What story? Nothing bad had ever happened to you. You had no real problems. That was the problem. You barely existed at all.”
― Margaret and the Mystery of the Missing Body
― Margaret and the Mystery of the Missing Body
“People ask, How did you get in here? What they really want to know is: How did they get in here themselves? You can't acknowledge the real question, because the truth is: it's easy.
And it is easy to slip into a parallel universe. There are so many of them: worlds of the insane, the criminal, the dying: art. These worlds exist alongside this world and resemble it, but are not in it.
Thank god. Without these other worlds, we would have no way of surviving this one.”

“I wouldn't mind it if my body went missing, I thought, then paused to think that through. If we all went around in just our brains, sooner or later we'd be calling our brains too fat, too gray, too slimy... Which obviously wouldn't solve anything.”
