The Symmetry of Stars by Alex Myers
3.5
super clever storytelling and I love the characters but the ending felt a little anti climatic?
Catch-22 by Joseph Heller
4.5
really enjoyable to sort of potter along with, having no idea what entirely is going on. I think I loved the ending? I feel like I need to watch a video essay to understand it all. I am very glad I read it
The Complete Maus by Art Spiegelman
5.0
such a heartfelt and human telling. the changes between past and present make it so emotional and real, hiding none of the brutality behind ideas of hopeful tomorrows. I truly truly cannot recommend this book enough it was amazing
Cinder Ella by S.T. Lynn
3.75
just a light hearted book, but written with in-depth love and acceptance. it is very cathartic to read a queer book that ends happily
The underground railway by Colson Whitehead
4.0
very well written with characters so so alive I was invested in them. the ending is so human and real; a perfect finish and yet still not complete.
An Actor Prepares by Constantin Stanislavski
slow-paced
3.0

A Life on Our Planet: My Witness Statement and a Vision for the Future by David Attenborough
4.0
being the first climate book I read that had practical solutions to the problems, it was a delightful and hopeful read, and I really enjoyed the simple writing style
Flèche by Mary Jean Chan
4.0
there is gorgeous poetry about learning to accept queerness, and it's relation to family. 'at the castro' is so full of joy and mourning that I want it imprinted on my heart
