Love After the End: An Anthology of Two-Spirit & Indigiqueer Speculative Fiction by Joshua Whitehead
4.5
#5 Andwanikadjigan (importance of power and storytelling) [5*]
#9 Eloise (hopeful, memory, bringing others into community, second chances; like the first, didn't feel very post-climate apochalypse) [4.5*]
#4 How to Survive the Apocalypse for Native Girls (what is Kinship, how is power abused, and making strangers kin) [4.5*]
#6 Story for a Bottle (another sweet and sad one; very similar to #4, but I cared more about the relationships in that one than this one) [4*]
#2 History of the New World (very timely & comforting in a dreadful sort of way; powerful portrayal of white allyship [not in a good way, but probably a realistic one]) [4*]
#7 Seed Children (this was fine, not my favorite, not my least favorite; reminded me a bit of Murderbot Diaries) [4*]
#3 The Ark of the Turtle's Back (kind of the opposite of #2; choosing to leave instead of stay; hopeful) [4*]
#8 Nameless (didn't really feel much of anything about this one) [3*]
#1 Abacus (I can't get past the fact that the AI lives in a rat; this was just weird) [2*]
