Divergent Realms by Riley Odell
informative
inspiring
medium-paced
3.5
Divergent Realms is a fun anthology of fourteen short stories by neurodivergent authors. As well as the entertainment that the stories bring (and they do!), the editor states that his goal is to represent many diverse voices within the book, which he did by making the submission process more accessible. In doing so, he has collated a truly diverse and interesting set of stories written by neurodiverse authors about neurodiverse characters.
I was also glad to read that the authors were paid as they deserve to be, even if Riley required family support to do so. I think it is an important point, as many, many neurodivergent people are unemployed and underemployed. Nice work, team!
Many thanks to NetGalley and BooksGoSocial for review access to the digital book.
