The Highest Frontier by Joan Slonczewski
I wonder if I will be able to spell her name by the end of WisCon 37? I am about 6 chapters into this book and really enjoying it. Notably, the protag has "public mutism", a disability similar to mine. Internet advancements have enabled her and others like her to be able to instantly text other people they are enacting with. There are a lot of ideas packed in, a lot of biology and some politics.
Just Finished
Fire by Kristin Cashore -- I finished this about a week ago and really enjoyed it. A reviewer on Goodreads said something about it being "anti-marriage propaganda" which means it's just the kind of thing I will love (lol). I loved the character arcs and the horses.
Our Cancer Year by Harvey Pekar and Joyce Brabner, art by Frank Stack. An unflinching, unsentimental look at cancer. Sometimes funny, always honest. I liked this.
Reading next
I'd like to read Bitterblue, the next Kristin Cashore book.
