I started, and finished, White Trash Warlock by David R. Slayton yesterday, and it was so good! Urban, queer SFF with MM relationships that felt very real.
Was a good exploration of a protagonist growing up in poverty and with complicated family dynamics (more on that in the next post).
As someone who lived in Denver, I loved how much of it took place in that city. [Casa Bonita was even in it!]

Radical Intimacy (Sophie K. Rosa) – Rosa delivers a strong critique of how the heterosexual, monogamous nuclear family unit was built to serve the needs of capitalist economics and woefully fails the individual and society at large in the midst of rising poverty and systemic discrimination.
Instead we're invited to look alternative perspectives on intimacy and community as well as challenging the primacy of monogamous romantic bonds drawing on queer, feminist and anti-colonial perspectives, especially those from the aro/ace & QPR community. Rosa covers aspects the hollowness of the wellness industry, state-sanctioned (and erased) relationships in housing, taxes and death, and the demotion of friendship bonds relative to marriage.
The book sparked a lot of thoughts for me as it progressed through a broad array of alternative perspectives on bonds to others. This especially hit close to home with my own experiences with QPR, polyamory and intensity in how I naturally relate to everyone in my circle. It's well worth a read if you feel nuclear bonds as isolating and the capitalist dominion over social spheres disempowering.
> "For queers, trans people and other marginalised groups such as sex workers and rough sleepers, mutual, collective mothering in a broader support network has always been the norm. Amongst these communities, kinship networks are chosen and porous – or, as the writer Armistead Maupin has put it, ‘logical’ family. While this type of kinship may include communal living, it may also be diffuse, between people who share spaces and moments dedicated to care, connection and community. This could take infinite shapes: shared creative pursuits, childcare cooperatives, support groups, sex parties, festivals, co-authoring, political organising. As the comedian and historian Jules Joanne Gleeson argues: ‘for queers, the prospect of putting an end to the domination of private households can come to seem less extreme and more hopeful’ because it would mean ‘an end to the farce of most queers being raised by heterosexuals’."

K. Valentin: An Amateur Witch’s Guide to Murder
[German version below]
[EN] Transparency note: I was allowed to read this as an e-arc by Alcove Press via Netgalley.
What do you do when you and your best friend have been struggling to make ends meet for years, with no family around to ask for support, only to suddenly be asked for help with lifting a curse by a guy who is as desperate as he is rich? If you’re Mateo (and Ophelia), you don’t let yourself be stopped by something as minor as a total lack of experience or an un-dealt-with […]
