Citrus Vol 1 definitely fit into that category for me, though it did someRead More

Rebecca reviews Crooked Letter i: Coming Out in the South edited by Connie Griffin
The 2015 non-fiction collection Crooked Letter i: Coming Out in the South edited by Connie Griffin is interesting and moving but sadly not very diverse.

Sure, Tasha Fairbanks’ characters are good, her prose is compelling, her plot is exciting and unusual—butRead More
