We Mostly Come Out At Night: 15 Queer Tales of Monsters, Angels & Other Creatures:
"4.5*
A great collection of queer myths, monsters, fairy tales, and folklore. Some are reimagined tellings, some are original. Every author represents queerness in their plot in their own unique way. Some standouts for me: - Be Not Afraid by Michael Thom" Read more of this review » |
