Another lovely book club pick for a quadrennial event with @annamatopoetry .

Kelly Link continues to be a provocative writer, and there are many things to like in this book. I enjoyed the way intimacy of different configurations is presented. I especially loved the distinctive interiority of the characters.

It is not a perfect book, and definitely not my recommended entry to her work. But all in all, a unique and fantastic novel debut.

That loud laugh that erupts from nowhere and scares you because it‘s quiet where you are reading...

Tldr; it‘s too weird for a solid recommendation.

My love for Lidia Yuknavitch still stands: her vocabulary and voice and creative word usage makes my heart quicken. But I am not wholly behind this book nor would I recommend it to many, particularly sci-if fans. It took me three tries to get through this book. It is calloused and difficult, but in a compelling way.

Happy new releases day to meeeee 💌🎶

From Here to Eternity & A Glorious Freedom

Shivers. Lidia‘s way with words always leaves me breathless. 💗
