This novella is a love letter style fuck you to the Patriarchal White Male Superhero of decades, told in the style of the The Vagina Monologues about by the 'Women in Fridergators' as Gail Simone termed them. The deadest girl in deadtown," and continues to pluck and interview with the words of Holly Black short story-then-novel 'The Coldest Girl in Coldtown,' the alliterative mimicry of both likely fusing them forever into my mind. I think because I knew how long this would sit with me, and how true it would bleach itself into my bones. I received this book as an ARC from Netgalley, and picked up the Audible and Kindle versions as soon as they were available but even with all three I had not sat down and devoured it, even as I'd plowed through so much else that Valente had written from Labyrinth forward. I have been meaning to read this novel since long before it was released. ![]() Spring 2109 (Netgalley, Audible, & Kindle) ![]()
