Sinkhole: A Legacy of Suicide
Juliet Patterson
I reviewed @julietpatterson's book, SINKHOLE (@Milkweed_Books) for @hippocampusmag. SINKHOLE is essential reading, in my opinion; a deft and poetic exploration of the legacy of suicide. https://t.co/mOCf7dCRYt

Fearing the Black Body: The Racial Origins of Fat Phobia
Sabrina Strings
@aureleos @addiebrook Not fiction but Sabrina Strings wrote a book called FEARING THE BLACK BODY and it is essential reading for anyone writing fatness or engaging with fatness, which is basically everyone. In fiction I see fat bodies constantly pathologized and exploited.
