gentlespirit512: If you like Andrea, check out her partner Megan Falley. Desiree Dallagiacomo is another one Anis Mogjani and Derrick C. Brown. (Dic 4, 2023, 5:37pm)
ravensquad100: Blood Water Paint by Joy McCullough is a really good novel in verse about a young Italian girl (in the Renaissance era) who gets SAed and depicts the sexism that she faced in the aftermath. Another good book is The Disordered Mind by Eric Kandel it gives an understandable introduction to many mental illnesses though the lens of neuroscience. (Nov 28, 2023, 9:22pm)
