They/Them/She/Her, Lesbian

8 more queer books I read this year, 2024 edition. All of these are sapphic stories, and I’ve listed them in no particular order.

Link to 2023

1. A Memory Called Empire - Arkady Martine
2. The Stars Are Legion - Kameron Hurley
3. Blackheart Knights - Laure Eve
4. Ruthless Lady’s Guide to Wizardry - C. H. Waggoner
5. In The Roses of Pieria - Anna Burke
6. Daughter of Mystery - Heather Rose Jones
7. Sisters of the Vast Black - Lina Rather
8. Ashes of the Sun - Django Wexler

I highly recommend all of these books!

Can’t wait to move into my new place! It’s rural and half built into an actual cave! My roommate, George, seems like a really fun guy. I’m a little worried about bugs and such this far out of the city, but Georg assures me that he’s got it handled!

cripplepunk is, of course, not about physical disability, but about being a young witch looking for her lost cat in the alps

Hidden object games are a fascinating demonstration of the arbitrariness of genre as a marketing tool because sometimes a game with “hidden object” on the cover is basically a digital version of Where’s Waldo, and sometimes a game with “hidden object” on the cover is a full-featured point and click adventure game that just doesn’t call itself that because its target audience is your middle-aged mom and the phrase “adventure game” doesn’t sell for that demographic, and there’s absolutely no way to predict from looking at the promotional material which of those it’s going to be.

And then every few years the games industry goes “ADVENTURE GAMES ARE DEAD AND HAVE BEEN SINCE THE 90S AND NO ONE HAS MADE ONE IN YEARS! LOOK AT WHAT A STRANGE RETURN TO FORM OUTLIER THIS ONE THING WE’RE RELEASING IS.”

Yeah, it’s long been my contention that the preponderance of evidence suggests point and click adventure games never really “died” – they just became persona non grata with the gaming industry’s promotional apparatus because because their player demographics started to skew strongly female for various reasons, and to this day the industry remains allergic to acknowledging that women play games.
