The way this book could be set next year and I'd believe it

Despite some of these chapters being crazy long this book is kind of a breeze. Very dystopian and bleak but easy to read. Cool vibes

Imagine New York being flooded and you're stuck in whatever building you're in unless someone comes by with a boat, and you just have to hope they are nice.

Found this via a prompt on Storygraph's onboarding challenge - and so far it's definitely interesting

This was not the best choice so soon after Helene

Having looked into it a little, it seems the author has spoken about their own assault, so, while I'm still perturbed with the framing of the romance, they are writing about something they have more of a perspective on than I do, and I recognise that I had a bit of a kneejerk reaction to feeling uncomfortable.

Really enjoying this book, but the romance is kinda yikes. From wildly inappropriate and scary moment to mention feelings to the magic of waving away the trauma of rape a few days later. Honestly, feel kinda gross and if I wasn't enjoying everything else as much I would DNF now.

CW: Self Harm (Referenced, a lot), Queer and Transphobia (Slurs, Violence - referenced), Sexual Assault (Heavily Implied), Children in Peril

What can I say? I love getting to know sad characters in difficult situations, dystopias, and if there are anarchist trans folx? Forget about it!

Game recognises game (sad trans edition)

So far, this is too real, and is kinda freaky to think all of this could in some way be a reality
