Straight | Chuck Tingle

I borrowed this audio from Queer Liberation Library!

This is a pretty effective zombie novella with strong themes of queer acceptance and righteous anger. A void in the cosmos is causing straight people to become irrational and violent towards queer folk for one night a year. A group of friends attempt to escape to Joshua Tree to wait it the event. It doesn't go well. Heavy COVID allegories, as straights refuse the vaccine and ignore precautions

Today I visited the localish bookstore, all afire to give her some money, but I didn‘t find ANYTHING. I was so sad I went all the way back to my favourite bookstore and bought two things I passed on the other day. It‘s important to grab Melissa Scott and Fumi Yoshinaga when you see them (though this Scott/Barnett series IS still in print, digitally, with much nicer covers).

One's first love will always be special, rarely lasts, never completely leaves ,and all subsequent relationships are colored by this one. Beautifully written novel.

5🌟/5🌟

Parts of this book hurt my heart. Parts of this book made me so very angry. What I do know is that Ma-Nee is a very strong, resilient person that I have a lot of respect for. Even though this book is full of trigger warnings, I believe it's a very important read that all of us can learn from.

TheBookHippie Yup. I‘ve been to two. (Outside the 80s) 2d
RaeLovesToRead @TheBookHippie I'm so sorry 🫂💔 It's such a hard hitting sentence. The writing on the next few pages is irreverent, direct, and weaves between the political, the personal, and the practical. Torrey Peters is an impressive writer. 2d
TheBookHippie @RaeLovesToRead I got a lot out of this book. Funerals I went to were horrific- a 16 and a 15 year old, who died by suicide. 2d

RaeLovesToRead @TheBookHippie That's so heartbreaking. Overall I'm not sure how I'd rate the book, but it's got some fantastic writing in it. I've got her new one too - Stag Dance 2d
TheBookHippie @RaeLovesToRead not sure how to rate it either. I have the new one setting here as well. There‘s good writing and it‘s just good to read experience of others. 2d
