Mostly I just thought this was okay! The writing didn’t really wow me, and the stories were either kind of hard to follow (I didn’t know about the magical realism aspect until I was embarrassingly far into it, I just thought I was a dummy for not understanding what was going on) or kind of boring. I did enjoy the connective theme of history and time, how we see ourselves in the past and how queer people have always existed. The characters in each story were pretty interesting, but I’m mostly leaving this collection wishing for more.
