Mediocrity is not a crime. This collection is mediocre in just about every way, from the prose to its hopepunk ideas. The stories being interconnected was distracting and confusing, though I do like how the last story tied it all together. It could have been close to a 4 star read had the weaker stories (like half) been dropped. But I still would've probably described it as mediocre.

PS. There is a particularly bizarre part where a Japanese woman describes her high school uniform as a "Sailor Moon-style uniform". Hmm??? ]]> GiveawayRequest573694938 Mon, 15 Apr 2024 20:13:17 -0700 <![CDATA[<a href="/user/show/27542457-lydia">Lydia</a> entered a giveaway]]> /giveaway/show/387707-between-two-moons Between Two Moons by Aisha Abdel Gawad ]]> ReadStatus7822584441 Mon, 15 Apr 2024 11:54:31 -0700 <![CDATA[Lydia wants to read 'People in the Room']]> /review/show/6430760730 People in the Room by Norah Lange Lydia wants to read People in the Room by Norah Lange
