Do not go into this expecting a direct extension of the emotion picture “Dirty Computer”. It’s more like a supplement via short stories which made it more intriguing as a sci-fi book. It leaves you asking questions about this world and wanting more while simultaneously being content with the story given you. Each short story was a beautiful homage to queer, black, femme, love whether that be romantic, platonic, or familial. Janelle Monas has such a beautiful mind and I can’t wait for what she has next. Absolutely loved this read!
