Upright Women Wanted

Me ha encantado.

Es una forma curiosa de hablar sobre sexualidades e identidades, pero está muy bien. También me han gustado mucho los personajes.

La única pega, por así decirlo, es que se me ha quedado un pelín corto; no me habría importado que se alargara algo más la historia.

Idk, just wasn’t really my thing but maybe it was just because I read the audio book version (or maybe I’m not into westerns)? There were some parts that were interesting enough so I gave it a .5 bump.

Really enjoyed this novella. It follows a group of sapphic and queer librarians tasked with distributing “approved materials” throughout a bleak and civil war-ravaged U.S., during which they covertly support the opposition in order to connect queer people to safety and support. It offers a mostly inspirational view on resistance in the face of misogyny and homophobia and challenging oppressive and controlling governments — a pretty relevant take at the moment in the U.S. I thought the combination of a dystopian setting with a Western-style story was also very interesting.

It was fine. The wording building just needed a little more. But this won't really stick with me. I enjoyed it, and that's it.
