Y'all mind if I ~sob~ ?
I have really loved this series. It's all a duality, a ballance of sweetness and sorrow, wholemeness and unsettling -- the whole way through. I have so many thoughts and feelings, but I'll just leave it at that to avoid any spoilers.

I was looking for a poetry audiobook to listen to while I cleaned and happened to har about this author. Without looking into it much, I played it -- and I wound up stopping what I was doing just to listen to it! (I almost always need to multitask in order to listen to audiobooks!). This was beautiful and heartwrenching. I will definitely be looking into more of their poetry collections!
I will say, my Spanish is... more than rusty, so I really was mostly just able to understand the parts in English -- but that was more than enough to give it five stars.

This book is a cute story. It's lighthearted for children about being yourself, but adults will likely see the bigger issue of coming out and/or integrating parts of yourself/your life that can be really difficult as a queer person. Also, the art is amazing with lots of neat bits in the details!

Cute little kid's book. Good for a silly read for a child, especially if you're potty training and the like.
