"A Witch's Guide to Escape: A Practical Compendium of Portal Fantasies" by Alix Harrow

This one I will re-read before I make too many comments on it. I mostly loved it, thought the writing was excellent, underlined a ton of pithy, wise comments about books and magic, but I also want to interrogate some of its assumptions. I feel this way about my chosen librarian profession at times, too.

I received this story as part of the 2019 Hugo Voters Packet.
