Quit Your Waning by Etta Pierce
adventurous
emotional
5.0
This book combined my two favourite things:
1. a monstrous alien hero (the more body horror the better)
✨ four-legged
✨ a Y-shaped mouth that goes all the way down his throat… and was kind of his hands? It was weird
✨ absolutely enormous, like taller at the withers than your average horse 👀
2. a richly characterized heroine
✨ she was Korean and I was learning about Korean holidays and googling Korean sayings
✨ she had a disability
✨ I’m obsessed with the interpersonal and cultural dynamics of all these post-abducted humans in space
Oh yeah, and can I add another favourite thing?
3. stalking
Also: 4. when the alien mates thing is genuinely bizarre. But I’m still happy for her 😆
