  1. Y no me dio tiempo a terminar «Lessons in Magic and Disaster», de Charlie Jane Anders; «Stories Are Weapons», de Annalee Newitz; «The Flowers I Deserve», de Tamara Jerée, y «Notes from a Regicide», de Isaac Fellman 🫠 Ahora tengo que leer unos libros por curro, así que... seguiremos con ellos a mediados de abril (?) La lista de lecturas que me había preparado para abril me mira mal 😂

    #TransRightsReadathon

  2. No pude terminar unos cuantos que tenía empezados, como «Whispers Beneath the Orange Grove», de Yaffa As, que justo terminé ayer por la tarde. Es una colección de ensayos que nos insta a abandonar nuestro ego, unirnos en comunidad y apoyar a las personas más marginadas entre las marginadas, quienes abrirán el camino hacia una posible utopía.
    Le autore habla sobre ciertas vivencias personales pero no profundiza en ellas, y eso me descolocó un poco. Pero es un texto potente.

  3. Pues al final no os conté nada :( Pero terminé el #TransRightsReadathon con «Hijab Butch Blues», las memorias de Lamya H, que me gustaron mucho (me faltó más profundidad en algunas partes, pero me parecen muy bien escritas) y con «La habitación de las ahogadas», de Alana S. Portero, que devoré una tarde de sábado muy tranquila.

  4. I'm still reading my fourth #TransRightsReadathon book (Pretty by KB Brookins -- it's intense and can't be gulped down) so I've donated $40 to the Transgender Law Canter and $40 to a local organization that I've found helpful.

    I haven't seen a whole lot of posts about the readathon this year, I hope people are talking about it other places.

  9. En el último día de #TransRightsReadathon, he decidido donar a Hailey Kaas, mujer trans brasileña que está pasando por un mal momento. La he conocido gracias a Charlie Jane Anders (de quien justo estoy leyendo un libro): ko-fi.com/haileykaas

    También me hice teamer de Euforia, asociación que me recomendasteis por aquí: teaming.net/euforiafamiliastra

  10. Se está acabando el #TransRightsReadathon y estoy aprovechando para leer cosas cortas porque me toca leer otras libros por curro :(

    ¡Mañana os cuento!

  11. @eryngium Check the #transrightsreadathon tag! Us by Sara Soler is a good introduction especially for well meaning allies on how to be supportive. Homebody by Theo Parish is similar but a non-binary prespective. Antiboy by Valentijn Hoogenkamp is a nice exploration of gender feeling and dilemmas.

  16. My third #TransRightsReadathon book was The Left Hand of Dog, an excellent recommendation from @Knien . It's just the kind of audiobook I like -- lots of distinct voices, and all British as a plus. 😂 The story is good silly fun, full of geeky references -- Spock's brain, I about died! -- but also has a lot of humanity, as femme-agender-asexual-disabled Lem finds herself feeling home at last with the motliest crew of silly aliens imaginable.

    I think it might have felt too twee for my tastes in print, but the audio really sells it. First in a series.

  21. ¡Nos han llegado libritos y son todos bien hermosos! «Lessons in Magic and Disasters», de Charlie Jane Anders, que no descarto empezármelo este finde para acabar el #TransRightsReadathon.

    Y también «The Poet Empress», de Shen Tao, que me interesó por su premisa, pero luego vi a Robin Hobb decir: "No me llamaba nada, no tenía ninguna esperanza de que me gustara. Me ha flipado. Cinco estrellas".

    Y también «Cleopatra» para @khardan y «Human Rites», de Juno Dawson, que acaba trilogía.

  22. "What makes queer- and trans-antagonism from Black Folks especially hurtful is the cognitive dissonance. It's as if Black queer and trans people are somehow outside the normal that Black Liberation would bring. It's as if there is such a thing as safe Black people. We're all unsafe in the eyes of anti-Black U.S.A. We're all unsafe no matter how cishet or respectable we appear."

  27. I tried The Burnt Toast B&B for the #TransRightsReadathon but it's not really my cuppa so I'm DNFing. I think I originally bought it because I wanted to support including a trans character in an m/m romance series, so I guess my work there is done. 😂

    Still reading Pretty by KB Brookins, which is really powerful writing.

  30. I forgot to mention, also paperback! There is a trade paperback edition.

    And all except the audiobooks have amazing interior art pieces by Brenda Lyons (Windfalcon) — as a treat, here's a look at how Whisper appears in the novel Pridelord.

    The transfeminine urge to paint your claws silver.

  34. My second #TransRightsReadathon book was Women's Hotel by Daniel Lavery. I immediately felt right at home, because though set in 1960s Manhattan, it reminded me so much of the sort of classic British books #FurrowedMiddlebrow reprints -- which I later learned was quite deliberate. mainstreetmag.com/a-conversati

    I thought it somewhat lacking in plot and through line -- which can be an issue for me with those books as well. Perhaps Lavery found the perfect way to play to his strengths and weaknesses as a writer, by being somewhat out of time.

    My favorite part of the book was the depiction of early AA and one character's journey with alcoholism.
