Recs if you like New Skin...

An on-going attempt to track Asian authors in my Interested/TBR (and hopefully Finished) categories. Books are generally fiction/lit fic/fantasy with some memoirs. Authors span West to East Asia, the Asian diaspora, and mixed-race folx.

Name-calling and insults you might hear on the playground and beyond...

Anything can be an insult if you believe it! My kid brother used to get in trouble for calling us "you...you BEAN" with all the spite his little preschool self could manage 🥹

lit fic and horror, mainly, and mostly books by women, nonbinary & trans writers, basically mostly non-cis-men

All sorts of stories about all sorts of women. Mostly litfic, some horror.
