"First short story is written by Kate Weinberg, I enjoyed this one enough and it has a link to a full novel that she's written so I'd be interested in picking that up in future.
The second short story is written by Olivie Blake, and I ended up skim reading, it seemed very wordy at times for no reason, it felt like she was trying to build up an academic feeling but just threw a lot of words at the page & went with it." — Oct 04, 2024 01:55PM

“That was love, wasn't it? It wasn't just a quick drop -- it was falling, over and over again, for your person. It was falling as they became new people. It was learning how to exist with every new breath. It was uncertain and it was undeniably hard, and it wasn't something you could plan for.”

“There was no shame in raping a black woman, but there could be shame in loving one.”
