Also loved the disability rep of migraines which  are horrific and so debilitating.

Absolutely amazing class consciousness and liberation of all peoples from tyranny of the over culture and vulture class needs to be depicted more in fiction , at times Zeitan annoyed the fuck out of me

Loved this short story . A toad girl finding connection after being alone so long and not all curses being made to be broken. Nostalgia for dark sweet fairytales

That was a gorgeous lush phantom retelling it almost works better in a retelling with the gender swapped . I stand by this often ya stories are better then adult ones . 

I loved this too much that was heartwrenchingly beautiful

Pretty good covers the trump presidency years just feels like a rehash good for a reference point but don’t think anything particularly new was said

This read too slow and was way too long for my liking the plot slogged along and the really good spice wasn’t until the end . Cute wrap up probably won’t continue the series tho

Not as good as I hoped it would be 
 Chloe was very annoying and acts like a stuck up grandma she kinda improved in the end . Red was sweet and funny . It was just ok . Love the disability rep 
Also some of the earlier convos were cringey not cute or funny weird but bad and giving second hand embarrassment. This needed some editing .
