Soft Robots and Hard Questions: Activation Degradation by Marina J. Lostetter
A brilliant, thought-provoking take on personhood.

Heartbreaking in the Wrong Way: Light from Uncommon Stars by Ryka Aoki
I wanted so badly to love this, but I just don’t.
Fucked-Up and Beautiful: Lips Like Ice by Peggy Barnett
Unflinching, gorgeous, and not for the faint of heart.
Rhapsodic Prose and a Queer Cast You’ll Adore: The All-Consuming World by Cassandra Khaw

I don’t care. After reading The All-Consuming World, I will read anything Khaw writes.
You’ll Grieve When It’s Over: Under the Whispering Door by T.J. Klune
Quiet and sweet and you will cry at least once.
But that’s okay.
