"One benefit of fainting is that he is no longer glaring at me like I'm some sworn enemy he's vowed to challenge to the death. Instead, he just looks like someone who got tossed a rare tropical fish without any instructions on how to keep it alive."

If I had a coin for every Middle grade book about queer characters and birds that I absolutely adored I had two coins. Which is actually a lot considering these specific themes! Why do they exist? Why are they good? (Can I please get more?) First Every Bird a Prince, now The Language of Seabirds. ♥ It’s so tender and beautiful and even among the drama, because it’s Middle grade, you can always be sure things will turn out well in the end ... /3
I also tremendously enjoyed Milo and Marcos at the End of the World. The writing, the story, right up my alley. One of the things I liked was how it portrayed religion vs. atheism without making one sound worse than the other. Next was Out of the Blue. I'm not really into picking favourite characters, but I loved Crest so much. I lent the book to my friend to read at the airport while we were on a short trip and she was like "This character is kinda annoying". Obviously, she is wrong, because they are The Best.
Unlike (probably an unpopular opinion) Julian from Cemetery Boys. To my own disappointment I did not like the book as much as I would have wanted. Julian is just too intense for my taste. Also, two days? Two days? Is it even possible to have a burning "I love you forever" kind of romance after just two days? This might just be my aroace insides speaking but I so didn't get it. I mean, he was a ghost, so no real body, no pheromones or whatever, just appearance and questionable personality. I could not imagine. I also don't see why they could not just have been friends. You can risk your life for your friends as well, you know. (The culture, magic and Maritza were pretty good though.) But I guess, it's the same reason why the boys in Right Where I Left You could not just stay friends. Like, I get it, you want to show that it's possible and give hope to kids in minorities or difficult sitiations, buuuut (deep sigh). I just don't like sayings like "see, I told you it had to happen sooner or later" just because a friendship is closer or more physical than what you're used to. It makes it sound like friendship isn't enough. For many people it isn't, yeah, but as a concept itself, it is. There no inherent need to take it further. I feel like I'm starting to sound like Téa/Anzu from Yugi-Oh with her friendship speeches, but I can't help it. D:
(Is it weird to read romance books and then whine because there was romance? Maybe. But it’s not like there’s a Platonic Relationships category in the bookstore ... Also with the right books I like reading about it, even though every so often I find myself being puzzled about the simple question “But how does is work?!” The more intense the characters get about it, usually the less I understand. I don’t think I’ll ever find the answer but maybe I can pick up some pieces of the puzzle.)
The final book this month was The Apocalypse of Elena Mendoza. I picked this up because I felt like revelling in my misery for a minute and previous SD Hutchinson end-of-the-world-books provided in that direction. Surprisingly Elena was much tougher than her male counterparts, which is a good thing really, because I loathe reading whiny heroines. It wasn't my favourite of the trio, but I appreciate its existence nonetheless. These books don't have an adventure or a big love story to tell, instead they just have ideas and thoughts all squished into a weird shape. And it's nice.

Okay I'm really sad about this and I definitely need them to actually communicate and figure everything out together, but the amount of respect I have for Marcos purely because of this one scene is insane. I see a lot of gay people get caught in toxic relationships (a lot more than straight people actually), and I love that Marcos is standing up for himself instead of letting Milo keep acting like he's ashamed of their relationship

Review: Milo and Marcos at the End of the World
Tumblr media
Synopsis:
Milo Connolly has managed to survive the first three years of high school without any major disasters, so by his calculations, he’s well past due for some sort of Epic Teenage Catastrophe. Even so, all he wants his senior year is to keep his head down and fly under the radar like the quiet, well-behaved, churchgoing boy that everyone thinks he is.
Everything is going exactly as planned until the dreamy and charismatic Marcos Price saunters back into his life after a three-year absence and turns his world upside-down. Suddenly Milo is forced to confront the long-buried feelings that he’s kept hidden not only from himself but also from his deeply religious parents and community.
To make matters worse, strange things have been happening around his sleepy Florida town ever since Marcos’s return—sinkholes, blackouts, hailstorms. Mother Nature seems out of control, and the closer Milo and Marcos get, the more disasters seem to befall them.
In fact, as more and more bizarre occurrences pile up, Milo and Marcos find themselves faced with the unthinkable: Is there a larger, unseen force at play, trying to keep them apart? And if so, is their love worth risking the end of the world?
Plot:
* Trigger Warning: Religion Trauma* 
People knew Milo Connolly at school to be the shy kid, his only friend was Van, and he was uber-religious. The only time Milo stepped out of line with his parents and church community was when he remained friends with Van, even after she left the church and gave up organized religion. On the first day of senior year, Milo was shocked when Van met him up for lunch bringing along Marcos, who Milo had not seen in three years. Moving from Orlando to Port Orange, Marcos’s father is the new treasurer at Milo’s church, despite Marcos being an atheist advocate. Milo met Marcos three years ago when the two of them were roommates at a three-week church camp. When their relationship was borderline more than friendly, Milo was hurt when he returned to his room one day and found Marco's gone. Thinking about him almost daily for the past three years, Milo was lost for words when the boy he was pinning after was suddenly sitting in Van’s backseat on their way to get curly fries. Where Milo knew his feelings for Marcos were wrong, something about being near him felt so right. With every touch sending a natural disaster, or an “Act from God” their way, Milo has to choose whether being with Marcos is worth the risk of ending the world.     
Thoughts: 
Kevin Snipes gives us this story of two closeted teenagers having to choose between each other and saving the world, as clearly, God did not want the two of them together. Picking up this novel, I did not realize how big of a trigger warning it needed around religious trauma, as someone who was not religious or queer, even I felt the pain Milo was feeling. Snipes did not hold back any punches, as Milo spent the majority of the book wrestling with his feelings for Marcos, and what his religion taught him to do with those feelings. Begging for this to be a phase, Snipes made you feel for Milo at every portion of the story, especially as Snipes had me against Milo, wishing he was a little less religious at times. Marcos is a fantastic character, with multiple dimensions from his family issues, wanting to be with Milo, and his struggles with the control her father has with forcing religion onto Marcos. With fast writing, and an easy plot to follow, the story is divided into four parts keeping from the point of view of Milo the entire time. Which worked, but I wished Snipes included a bit from Marcos here and there. The organization of the story was extremely well done, as Snipes allowed you to get an intro on the characters before diving into the whole three years ago with Milo and Marcos, before spending the remainder of the story in the present. This was fantastic as it allowed you to understand what went down between Milo and Marcos early on, before continuing the rest of the story to see how their relationship plays out. The small amount of science fiction is sprinkled in there, making you question if there is a god in this universe, or as Marcos thinks just coincidences. It was not my favorite element of the story, but I do see the point of Snipes utilizing it to make this story stand out and to add some needed drama for Marcos and Milo. The ending was perfect, making you happy you stuck through with the story till the end. This coming-of-age story is appropriate for all readers, and a well-done story for the LGBTQ+ community. The religion aspect is something that many young queer readers might struggle with, similar to Milo, which can be helpful, but it can also be harmful due to Milo’s influence on believing his feelings are wrong and that his religion is right, which can be harmful to some readers.

Happy May!
May is the best month- AKA my birth month- and it's also full of really incredible books this year!
As always, check under the cut for more on each~
Book of Night by Holly Black is the amazing Holly Black's adult debut! This is a dark fantasy novel of literally shadowy thieves and magic, and I've heard nothing but fantastic things!
The Hacienda by Isabel Cañas is a modern Gothic Horror piece, set in Mexico after the War. It's supposed to be a bit of a mash up between the classic Rebecca and Mexican Gothic.
I Kissed Shara Wheeler by Casey McQuiston is McQuiston's YA debut, and since I was lucky enough to score and advanced copy, I can tell you it's great! Part indie movie mystery, part queer culture celebration, all love, it's going to be a lot of people's all time favorite very soon. I also wouldn't be surprised to see it get a movie deal!
Seasonal Fears by Seanan McGuire is the sequel/companion to the phenomenal Middlegame, an SFF books of twins and alchemy. That's one of my favorite books, and Seanan McGuire is an excellent fantasy writer, so consider me pumped!
When Women Were Dragons by Kelly Barnhill is a feminist magical realism story with actual DRAGONS. Sign me up, immediately.
Cafe Con Lychee by Emery Lee is Lee's sophomore novel after their very trans romance "Meet Cute Diary". This one is looking to be just as queer, and has some fun rivals to lovers.
Dead End Girls by Wendy Heard is a sapphic story of faking your own death, running from the cops, and also running from some people who might want you actually dead, and uhhh accidentally maybe causing some people to be actually dead. This is also one I've already read, and I can tell you it's a RIDE.
See You Yesterday by Rachel Lynn Solomon is for all the time loop fans out there! (Me.). This is a time loop romance about a girl reliving her awful first day of college.... with her nemesis.
Milo and Marcos at the End of the World by Kevin Christopher Snipes is one of my favorite books of the year! This one is a queer story of internalized homophobia and religious trauma- it's heavy and messy, but it's also got SUCH a good romance to balance it out. If I could shove this book into every queer teen and young adult's hands I would.
Queer Ducks (and Other Animals) by Eliot Schrefer is another book I'd love to shove into people's hands- it's also the only nonfiction book on this list! This is a study on queerness in nature, firmly and humorously shutting down arguments that queer living is "unnatural". It's also by the author of the phenomenal queer scifi thriller "The Darkness Outside Us".
The Fae Keeper by HE Edgmon is the long awaited sequel to The Witch King! This book promises a follow up to those truly divine vibes!
Together We Burn by Isabel Ibanez is about- wait for it... both dragons and flamenco dancers. There's also enemies to lovers!

"I want you to douse me in gasoline and then set me on fire, because that would be less excruciating than trying to grapple with a lifetime of self-loathing and internalized homophobia while Lady Gaga blasts in my ear."

Book rec! Milo and Marcos at the End of the World by Kevin Christopher Snipes. It’s a sweet, funny, and slightly heartbreaking new YA novel about two teen boys falling in love amidst mysterious apocalyptic events. The author is actually a friend of mine since we worked in the same office years ago and he’s a big swiftie. (mild spoiler) When Milo and Marcos have their first kiss, they are slow-dancing to “a melancholy Taylor Swift ballad” which Kevin confirmed is meant to be Lover 💕 Also you can absolutely judge this book by its cover art which is SO beautiful and intriguing.
Omg what a fantastic and very thoughtful rec. Thank you for sharing!!! Also what a fun personal tidbit/flex ;)

Thanks for joining me on this ride through 2022! When I started my reading spree in autumn 2021 I did not expect to find so much joy (and sometimes frustation) to motivate me to write hundreds of words about books every month. I read and write what I want and because I want to, but it's nice to know that sometimes there’s actually someone interested in what I have to say. So thank you for even the small interactions. :)
I had to edit this overview like five times because whenever I thought I was done I found another book I missed. So if I counted correctly I have read a total of 93 books (written and audio, not including manga, comics and non-fiction). That is ... a damn lot! Like 6 years combined compared to before. I also reread two of those books and while editing my novel I read it two whole times. That counts, right? (That’s why there’s 94 covers up there. Because i snuck it inbetween. Because I can. uAu) Only 14 of all these books I would categorise as non-queer. Funnily enough, 6 of those I didn’t like very much. Of the remaining 75 queer books I only found 1 book really bad and I’m picky about 2 more. Huh.
On to the award ceremony! (But don’t expect laudations. I wouldn’t shut up.)
Least favourite phrase:
... it smelled like boy.
(from: The Song that moves the Sun, Darius the Great (probably the 2nd) and the third time I already blocked from my mind (Here the Whole Time???)) That sentence came up fucking three times! Seriously. WHY?! I hate it. 8D
Favourite phrase:
But we have more important things to do than hook up.
(from: The Darkness Outside Us) I laughed so hard at this sentence. Finally someone who gets it! All stupid YA heroines should listen to this.
Favourite protagonists:
Jack Shannon (Aces Wild) and Neil Josten (All for the Game)!
Favourite covers:
Tumblr media
Least favourite books:
A Far Wilder Magic (Allison Saft) and If You Change Your Mind (Robbie Weber)
Favourite books (no order):
The Darkness Outside Us (Eliot Schrefer)
Aces Wild: A Heist (Amanda DeWitt)
The City Beautiful (Aden Polydoros)
Every Bird a Prince (Jenn Reese)
All for the Game series: (Nora Sacavic)
I Wish You All the Best (Mason Deaver)
I Hope You Get this Message (Farah Naz Rishi)
More books I greatly enjoyed:
Both can be true (Jules Machias)
A Taste of Gold and Iron (Alexandra Rowland)
The Language of Seabirds (Will Taylor)
A Complicated Love Story Set in Space (Shaun David Hutchinson)
At the Edge of the Universe (Shaun David Hutchinson)
Milo and Marcos at the End of the World (Kevin Christopher Snipes)
Little Black Bird (Anna Kirchner)
The Girl Who Fell Beneath the Sea (Axie Oh)
In Deeper Waters (F.T. Lukens)
So this is Ever After (F.T. Lukens)
All that’s Left in the World (Erik J. Brown)
.... aaaand many many more! uAu
Bonus!
At the half year point I actually counted how often the protagonists names were being used throughout those different books. I felt to lazy do to it in detail for the second half, but I can still present you my preliminery count of most used names for the protagonist, love interest and possibly best friend. These came up at least 3 times!
Will/William
Matt
Nate/Nathan
Andrew/Drew
Daniel
Lame, right? 8D My favourite name choice award goes to Rosemary and Rowan from Mirrored in Evergreen by B. Pigeon!
That’s it! Phew! Thanks the universe for books! :D

10 people I want to get to know better
Hey, a tag game fun! Thanks for the tag @libertyreads
Relationship Status: Happily single and chilled
Favorite Colour(s): (Royal)Purple, Blue, and Red.
Favorite Food: Uhhh...total blank I’m afraid. If you set a bunch of things in front of me I could for sure pick a favorite but to just pick a favorite food???? Impossible. Herculean.
Song Stuck in my head: It was YAOASOBI’s “Yoru Wo Kakeru” until I re listened to If/When’s “Best Worst Mistake”.
Last Thing You Googled: DnD 5e Grappling Rules. Was listening to an Actual Play (Rolling With Difficulty strong recommend), and got curious about some stuff.
Time: 8:48pm (AST)
Dream Trip: Maybe it’s the festive mood in the air but I wanna do a full-on Zombie Island haunted house tour. Attempt to romance me by taking me to the top 10 scariest haunted prisons, and end with a fun daylit urban romp through Hashima (or Gunkanjima)
Last Thing You Read: I recently finished Milo and Marcos At The End of The World by Kevin Christopher Snipes, a fairly good little romance that handles anxiety about coming out and the changes that entails. It was a nice change of pace from The Bladed Faith by David Daglash, and The Last House On Needless Street by Catriona Ward; the first in a fantasy series involving politic and revenge and a murder mystery respectively.
Last Book You Enjoyed Reading: See above, maybe could have kept one of those for here but I enjoyed em all so they call get a shout out.
Favorite Thing to Cook/Bake: Cookies so much cookies. Peanut Butter in particular. Simple, easy, and delicious, so I’m never just too out of it to make ‘em when I need to Make Something Physical
Favorite Craft To Do In Your Freetime: Not super crafty I’m afraid.
Most Niche Dislike: Ahh time for the Something Wrong With Me to rear its head. I really don’t know? I guess bad faith arguments in general. I have to push down the urge to yell every time someone brings up “FFX Laughing Scene” when people talk about bad VA work.
Opinion on Circuses: Nada.
Sense of Direction: Yep! I’m no good and giving them but once I know the general direction I’m basically good to get anywhere.
Gonna pass on the tagging, but if someone wants ta by all means tag me in and answer away.
