“Another short story collection where I could totally read a full length book. Honestly I would even accept a novella length for 7 of 9 stories.
These were originally published in various journals from over 7 years. This just solidifies Nino Cipri as one of my favourite authors.
Just gorgeously haunting stories of love, loss, the meaning of home and time travel. A quick but impactful read.”

“I liked this collections of short stories! Most of the stories involved one or multiple genderqueer characters and I enjoyed the fast pace. It was refreshing to read something unpredictable and with so much emotional depth in short story form.”

“Cw at the end.
This compilation of queer horror stories brought me trauma and joy. I always struggle a bit with short stories books, as the tone and quality of the stories can differ from one to the other. I was horrified by "Dead Air", to the point that I nearly DNFed the book (please take care of yourself and check trigger warnings). However, I found all stories engaging and very well written. I am grateful the author chose to end the book with "Before we disperse likestar stuff" which was hopeful and sweet.
Cw: body horror, deadnaming, transphobia, death, domestic abuse, abandonment”
