I came back out on deck, and Slate was at the helm, his strong hands on the wheel, looking for all world as though he intended to remain there. He called out to me.
“Well, Nixie? Where are we going next?”

1. I‘ll always be impressed with how weird and creative Vassa in the Night was by Sarah Porter. I wish all fairytale retellings were that creative.

1. Vassa in the Night is the only one I‘ve read, but I hope to read more or that she writes more like it. 🦢

TheSpineView Great choice! Thanks for playing 6h

This was a really lovely, quiet novel. Darius doesn't feel comfortable with his American peers or his long distance family members in Iran. When they travel to visit his grandparents, he struggles to feel connected to his family's culture. I loved the relationships built throughout, the strained one with his father and the new bond with Sohrab. It delves into some deeper topics like depression and platonic masculinity.

peanutnine Definitely looking forward to Darius' next story but alas there is a long wait at the library #SeriesLove2024 @Andrew65 @TheSpineView #LGBTQ2024 shelf read @Kenyazero 18h
PuddleJumper I hope the second book is just as good 3h
peanutnine @PuddleJumper me too. It looks like it has a bigger romance element this time so we'll see how that goes 2h
lil1inblue This was such a good read. I found there were several things I could relate to despite the gender and cultural differences. And the representation of male friendship was so refreshing! 2h

There is hope, even when your brain tells you there isn‘t.

Love is not a tragedy or a failure, but a gift.
You remember your first love because they show you, prove to you, that you can live and be loved, that nothing in this world is deserved except for love, that love is both how you become a person, and why.
