Ambientado ya en zona persa, La marca de Qilwa es una novela corta fantástica donde lo queer es la norma y la magia y la medicina se funden. Prota NB y ace, hermano trans, me lo leí durante los días del #transreadathon.

Victor: Took the jaw off first - had to make sure that he wouldn’t stop breathing halfway through the disassembly - and then worked my way down. Stripped the muscles from the bone, stretched them out on the rack - that’s always the scary part. You nick a tendon and you have to hope you can make a replacement out of boiled horsebone. Then all I had to do was pick out the worms with tweezers. Not sure if you ever worked on lockjaw, but the worms are purple and wiggly - easy to see, tricky to catch. Got them all in a jar downstairs, might make them into jam after church this Sunday. Then I just put everything back, which would have been easy if I wasn’t rushing and forgot to number all of those red ribbons.
Victor, continuing: Still, it all worked out fine. Charlie’s walking like new, the seams are barely noticeable, and the ether kept him asleep through the whole thing while the voltaic kept him living. It’s always so much worse when they wake up halfway through. Or die. Or both. (End quote) Geraldine: Subject: Victor Freestone, new ‘doctor’, invited to family dinner after I convinced my father of the importance of having a viable doctor around, odd proclivities and ignoble breeding aside. (End quote) Narrator: In the late 1870s, in the shadow of the Civil War, there was an incident in the small town of Henshaw, Missouri. A great tragedy occurred, and at the center of it all was the unexpected variable, the uncommon physician, one Victor Freestone.
Narrator, continuing: Scholarship has not been kind to him. Until the last twenty years, when renewed interest in the topic led to reassessment of older material, most historians covering him worked off of Howard Dixon’s distorted version of events from his 1902 book, Unnatural Phenomena in the Midwest, which paints the ordeal as a lurid revenge plot. Victor: They’ll stop fighting me once it’s clear that I’m not leaving. And when they do, I’ll fix this place. Take it apart, put it back together. Maybe then I’ll find out why they shot you dead. Love, Victor

If anyone is needing something to read for the #transreadathon I still have ARC ebook copies of my gothic romance novel ALL THINGS DEVOUR! Shoot me a message if you're interested!
A copy of Little Blue Encyclopedia (for Vivian) by Hazel Jane Plante on a light blue cloth background. The book cover is blue, with the title and author name written in light blue, interspersed with drawings of an armadillo, heart, squid, and lipstick tube, all in the same color.
Time for #transreadathon ! My first pick is a personal favorite, Little Blue Encyclopedia (for Vivian) by Hazel Jane Plante. A unique and heartfelt novel about grief and healing through art, and one that I cannot recommend enough. #trr26

Pink text on black background, from my book HARD TIMES AT THE APROSTATE CRATER “we met a hundred-thousand years ago / before even the mutates went extinct / black cumrags taut around our thighs / flagging death you took my clitcock in your paw and stabbed it with yr switchblade / penetrate me, Mommy / in the diner parking lot where faggots cut each other up / and all the carapace cars / are stuck in cruise-control slice a cunt into my side / spear yr cock between my labial ribs / and fill me with yr radiation / inseminate my fertile organs / with cancers that’ll never fucking kill me / fuck me to half-life, Mommy / make me yr pretty little nuclear disposal site our holes are not a place of honor / no highly-esteemed life is consecrated here / everything valued is here in our violence / what is here is dangerous and arousing to us / this message is I Love You”

This #transdayofvisibility🏳️⚧️ we’re proud to flag a few ace books to your #transreadathon list. In a year of dog-whistle politics and mainstream political attacks endangering vulnerable communities, it’s never been more important to listen, to celebrate and to push for representation.
The cover of These Burning Stars by Bethany Jacobs.
#transreadathon book 3: These Burning Stars by Bethany Jacobs. A space opera about the afterlives of genocide with a satisfying resolution and a surprising twist. Re trans stuff, the book has a nb major character, and in its world ppl choose their gender at adulthood independent from sex, but (1/?)
Finally catching up on my #transrightsreadathon reading and #transreadathon reviews! 🏳️⚧️
Next up is THE REVENGE OF CAPTAIN VESSIA by Leslie Allen, a swashbuckling vampire fantasy with a #queer crew, a #transgender princess, and even a little romance.
