I’m in awe of Brontez Purnell as a writer .He is a mastermind at creating narratives that are humorous and biting and simultaneously can leave you on the verge of tears. We see so many moments in this collection where a level of vulnerability peaks through the humor, talking about his mother, his body, race, and trauma. This collection is stunning because it is so human. A kaleidoscopic view of the human experience.

Despite already hearing massive spoilers for this sapphic novella, I know it’d never be less than five stars for me. Our main character, Ru, pines a woman who dresses like a fairy and mulas her own soap. You’ll be in a cottage-core dream with all the lush descriptions of Ash’s homestead and homemade products and cooking. But don’t let the sweet, sensual moments between these two women distract you from noticing what sinister secrets lurk about.

Holy hell. With breakneck pacing and lush language, this fever dream of a book captures the claustrophobia and madness of an abusive relationship like nothing else I’ve read. As someone who survived a similar situation, it resonated deeply with me. Not for the faint of heart.

I’ve never read a book about grief as beautiful as this. No matter your comfort level with your own mortality, this book does a lovely job on showcasing how grieving a loved one is an opportunity for connection and a revival of tradition. While the subject of death may make you assume you’ll cry in the end, I actually found myself smiling.
