S02:E06 | Little Reviews: Books About Bonding (feat. Kristen Arnett, Claire Oshetsky, & Yuri Herrera)

Little Oracles

It's Little Reviews time, and today we're talking about bonds, and bonding, and the links we have to what we love and what we've lost. We're digging into three books today:

• With Teeth by Kristen Arnett
• Chouette by Claire Oshetsky
• The Transmigration of Bodies by Yuri Herrera (trans. Lisa Dillman), and one of our ABC picks for June

A NOTE ON CONTENT & SPOILERS
I highly encourage you to look into content warnings for every book I discuss before you pick it up; we want reading to be safe for everyone. <3
I refuse to spoil plot, but I do talk about what you can glean from the book jacket, authorial and narrative choices, formal elements, and my overall impressions and takeaways. If you're wary of getting spoiled on *anything,* then maybe bookmark this episode and come back when you've read the books herein.
Take care, keep creating, and stay divine!
