The Tainted Cup by Robert Jackson Bennett- 5/5 ⭐

I really loved the humor, queerness, neurodiversity rep, and dyslexia rep! The narrator, Andrew Fallaize, was also wonderful with tone and storytelling.

Salt Slow by Julia Armfield: 4 ⭐
An interesting collection of short stories surrounding relationships but in very different ways. I really think it touched on the female experience well with weird story examples. Salt Slow was my fav
