A review by sofia_the_scholar
Airy Nothing by Clarissa Pattern

4.0

The book is set in a kind of Shakeaspearean era, and it involves Jonathan, who is often mistaken for a girl, but he himself feels more comfortable showing his feminine side (which is totally subjective). It is so refreshing for a writer to talk about LGBTQ+ qualities, especially in Victorian London.

As he runs away from his village, he's trying to find the Fairie Queen, but then he'll find himself in the Globe Theater, where he'll meet Edmund Shakespeare.

I think that it was so magical. The writing was exceptionally good, the dialogue was also so cute, and I could just feel Jonathan's joy, bewilderment, sadness, anxiety. I would really have liked to have him as an actual friend irl.

I'm so looking forward to read more of this author works!
