Just some trans and non-binary authors & characters 🩷🤍🩵

[id: first slide is of Elissa peeking out above a line of books. The titles are Cafe Con Lychee, Ander and Santi Were Here, We Unleash the Merciless Storm, Horse Barbie, The Death of Vivek Oji, You Don’t Have a Shot, The Mermaid the Witch and the Sea, Witchlings, If Tomorrow Doesn’t Come, The Fifth Season, Something to Talk About, and Red White and Royal Blue.

The second slide is another shot of Elissa with the books. The third slide is a video of Elissa holding the stack of books and half of the stack falling and dropping onto the floor. She looks back at the camera with a frown. A cat stands on the library ladder behind her and is startled by the noise of the books falling. The video has no sound.]

I encouraged my friend to get a bookshelf wall with a ladder. This reel took like 5 months to make so enjoy it! lol 😂

Telephone by Percival Everett Apparently, there

Telephone by Percival Everett

Apparently, there are three different versions of this book out, each with a tweaked storyline. I wasn’t aware of this when I bought the book, and I’m not sure what the other two stories were, but I thought the story I got was stunning.

This was, at its core, a story about parenthood and how lonely it is when things go sour. The main character, Zach, has a daughter whose health is suddenly failing. There were other side stories like the women who were enslaved by a sweat shop in New Mexico that Zach feels compelled to save, and a colleague who is trying for tenure at her college, and a college student who has a crush on Zach, as well as Zach’s marriage that is on the rocks. I’m really curious what Everett played up in the other two versions of the book. Mine focused heavily on the sweatshop workers in NM.

This is a new-to-me author with a huge backlist that I’m excited to read. Thank you @reggiereads for recommending this to me! (Well, to the world, and me thinking it sounded good. 😆)

[id: a copy of Telephone lays flat on a wooden surface. There’s a compass printed three times on the cover facing NW. A bowl of washi tape is nearby.]
