All of the Books I Bought in Summer

Reviews7

It is this lovely slow burn friendship to romance between an alien who's stranded on Earth feeling incredibly lonely and a professor who is also experiencing loneliness in her own way... I just thought it was this wonderful love letter to companionship which is just gorgeous.

New Age of SexismLaura Bates
Loved it

But this is a phenomenal non-fiction book about well how misogyny is a core part of a lot of the AI that is currently growing as an industry and online tech that women and children actually are being exposed to and how it doesn't have like the proper safety features or have women's safety in mind in the design because of how fast it's being pumped out and it's really, really incredible.

One Yellow EyeLeigh Radford
Loved it

It is sort of post-zombie apocalypse... but how we get through it and it's so well done. Like it's a really emotional book and I would highly recommend it.

Queer GeorgiansAnthony Delaney
Loved it

This is phenomenal. It is unsurprisingly a history of the Georgian era in Britain from a queer perspective, looking at evidence for queer folk in the Georgian era... I found that fascinating. and inspiring and I loved it.

I won't pretend I've read this cover to cover, but I have read portions of it since it arrived. This is for anybody to pick up. It's not like a super academic volume, but it is rooted in the academics. And it's just phenomenal.
