Thanks to Random House for the free copy of this book.

 - Torrey Peters is back with more stories digging deep into the personal and cultural constructions and meanings of gender.
- Each story in this collection is emotionally and physically intense. Peters doesn’t look away from the weirdness of bodies and the feelings we have about them.
- There are just so many layers to this book. The more I think about it, the more connections I make and the more I find to ponder.

Thanks to PRH Audio for the free copy of this book.

 - New favorite Arnett book alert! I adored every minute of STOP ME IF YOU’VE HEARD THIS ONE.
- It’s Arnett’s signature blend of grief and absurdity, set in the niche world of Orlando clowns.
- Cherry and her friends and family are fighting hard to just be themselves, and to be accepted as such. It’s a joy to follow them as they try to figure it all out.
- If you’re an audiobooker, it’s narrated by comedian Cameron Esposito, and it’s perfection.

Doppelganger: A Trip Into the Mirror World

Naomi Klein

DID NOT FINISH: 26%

This is already getting a bit repetitive, and honestly right now it's just kind of tough to read a book published a few years ago that foreshadows everything that's happening now.
