Even Greater Mistakes: Stories by Charlie Jane Anders
5.0
Thank you so much @torbooks for this free copy of Even Greater Mistakes!
I love Charlie Jane Anders. I don’t know how to explain what a ray of sunshine she is in the pandemic dampened reality we live in. There’s always kindness, support, a smile, a laugh and an uplifting dance and of course, excellent writing there for you whenever you need it.
I feel like this anthology of short stories, each introduced with context in how they were inspired and what time in her career they were written, is a most welcome and uplifting escape.
Each story is unique, quirky, imaginative..I can’t even choose a favorite!
It’s really difficult for me to put my feelings on this book into words other than to say: it’s important and it’s amazing just like it’s author.
Additionally, the LGBTQIA+ rep is inspiring. I love when stories have rep and it’s the norm in the world, and the focus of the story is the character development and the storyline. It’s just *chef’s kiss*.
Most of the stories are based in sci-fi or speculative fiction, but I think there’s a story for everyone and something relatable to enjoy. Even if that’s not your regular genres, it’s well worth a read!
