This book is an anthology of queer stories by queer authors with artwork by queer illustrators. This book contains representation of a variety of identities. I really enjoyed the format of the book, with a collection of stories of a variety of genres and writing styles, poetry and artwork. I really enjoy short stories and this book contained lots of lovely ones.

This book was an enjoyable read and I would recommend :)

My favourite stories


  • Penguins 
  • The pheonixs fault
  • On the run
  • The instructor

Content warnings for specific stories (apologies this is not a full list and doesn't contain all stories)

On the run -  shop lifting/theft, implied hitting/abuse from family

Almost certain - dementia,  panic attack, anxiety, heart attack, death, grief 

The other team- transphobia, misgendering

I hate Darcy pemberly- slut shaming

Love poems to the city- homophobia
