Timea liked Siavahda's review of Boy, Snow, Bird:
Boy, Snow, Bird by Helen Oyeyemi
"On the one hand, this was incredibly written, and up until the last two chapters I thought it was going to make my faves-of-2014 list.

But then we had SERIOUSLY dubious transgender issues, for no discernible purpose, and now I don't know how to rate this one.

Five stars for almost everything...and one for really, REALLY crappy handling of trans issues.

:edit:

No, I'm giving this one star. Because the more I think about this the more angry I get about it. I don't see any excuse for what Oyeyemi stated/implied about trans issues and I'm not inclined to forgive her for it."

Honestly, I have mixed feelings about this book. The storytelling was amazing, I could barely put it down. But I have the feeling that the ending was not entirely taught through. Motivations of the characters could have been explained better. Why did someone act the way they did. What were their inner thoughts, their main motivations...to be honest, the ending was a big disappointment for me 🙈🤷🏻‍♀� ]]>
