It's extremely hard to give a book that talks about homosexuality, feminism and even SA/rape a low rating, but could you imagine how frustrating it is to expect these subjects to be talked about deeply or/and to have a heartbreaking imagery associated with it and to end up having just random thoughts thrown onto the paper, with a writing that neither is polished nor controlled ? Each section (obviously) has its own themes and tones, and speaks to the reader on a different level. It gave me the chills, it made me cry and it gave me so many emotions that not many poem books were able to give me. Part mythology retelling, part healing manifesto, this empowering and feminist collection tackles the timeless topic of love--romantic, platonic, and self-love--while also exploring various pieces of myth from Aphrodite's perspective.

And thank you: for dog-earing pages, for highlighting your favourite lines, for sharing your stories with me, for sharing your time with me.The long-awaited second instalment in Samantha Shannon's Sunday Times and New York Times-bestselling series Tunuva Melim is a sister of the Priory. The bestselling LGBTQ+ graphic novel about life, love, and everything that happens in between: this is the fifth volume of the Heartstopper series. The passages from Aphrodite’s perspective were particularly compelling and there were many that I have saved and shared with friends.

Known for her eponymous blog, she is now the author of multiple poetry collections, including When The Stars Wrote Back (2020), Aphrodite Made Me Do It (2019), Honeybee (2018), and The Dogs I Have Kissed (2015) which won a Goodreads Choice Award the year of its release.

She currently lives in a house by the sea in New Jersey; and when she's not wrangling her cat, Honeybun, she stares out at the water and waits for the words to wash ashore. In this way some of her work was perhaps lessened by her execution when it could have had a much greater impact if delivered in another way. Featuring a vibrant rainbow design, and our super-sized Q logo, you won't find a more stylish way to make a statement. Mateer simultaneously speaks to us about love and loss and the empowerment that can come from them, while channeling the goddess and retelling her story as a form of dedication and reclamation—not only for the goddess, but for those of us who never quite fit the mold they want to shove us into, the one they say is meant for us. No tenía idea de que iba el libro pero es hermoso, lo recomiendo mucho y se ha convertido en uno de mis libros favoritos.
