Hitting close to home what can I say

May and June slipped by without as much space as I usually make for AAPI and queer voices in my reading, but between this stunning collection of short stories and Lisa Ko’s The Memory Piece, I’m glad to be engaging with both. A good reminder that these stories deserve to be centered year-round and not just during heritage months.

It’s so cool to read a book written by my friend!! It’s getting me out of my reading slump.

Hell yeah brother

I need more Mary Oliver in my life.

Maybe I’m padding my numbers with a young readers book but looking for diverse voices and books set in the Bay Area, and it’s well-written!

This book is so Pisces coded ♓️ does anyone else ever think about the astrology of what they’re reading? Any other good reads for Pisces season??
