This book, in feelings, has crashed into me. That's the kind of emotional mess I feel. Also want to go ahead and recommend for any readers to please look at the content warnings for this book.
Parents that seem oppressively in control of themselves and their own separate lives, and in a sense, this includes Ariel. Ariel already feels too large to fit in and wonders at questions of gender and many things. But Ariel's real struggles are their own thoughts. Thoughts that seem to swish and slide around like a huge destructive, blood-craving crocodile. What Ariel can't figure out alone is that it's not them... it's a type of OCD.
This author is a brilliant poet, and I am once again amazed. This one was particularly emotional, I think, because it was a bit longer and had me on edge longer. It was a very intense but important read.
Out March 12, 2023!
Thank you, Netgalley and Publisher, for this Arc!

I’m starting to realize that a woman doesn’t get that mad so mad that her hair turns to snakes so mad that her rage turns blood to boulder so mad that she withdraws into a cave and dares the world to follow all on her own.

[Free Audiobooks] Poor Matza: Selected Stories by Avrom Reisen & The Truth About White Lies by Olivia A. Cole [Jewish Historical Fiction & YA Contemporary Social Drama]
The annual SYNC Summer of Listening program encouraging literacy among teens by giving away a themed weekly pair of audiobooks—1 modern or non-fiction, 1 classic or drama—returns for another year, courtesy of sponsor AudioFile Magazine and participating publishers.
This 6th week's theme is “Remaking Ourselves”, featuring fiction centred around the experience of moving to a new place with little support and trying to fit into a community that may not be as suitable as it seems, available from Thursday June 1st through Wednesday June 7th:
Poor Matza: Selected Stories of Avrom Reisen by the late Avrom Reisen, an early 20th century Belarusian-American Yiddish-language writer and poet, translated by Harvey Fink, read by David Skulski from Post Hypnotic Press. This is a collection of 38 historical period literary short stories about Jewish shtetl and city life in Eastern Europe and immigrant life in New York before WWII.
The Truth About White Lies by Olivia A. Cole, read by Mela Lee from Hachette Audio. This is a standalone YA contemporary fiction social drama novel, starring a white girl newly arrived in her recently deceased grandmother's gentrifying hometown and navigating the class and racial divides in wealthy private school circles as she tries to make new friends and fit in, uncovering family secrets that challenge her perception of own privilege as well as the lingering effects of white supremacy.
The freebies are available via Overdrive's Sora service (listenable via browser on their website, or via their mobile app for iOS & Android devices).
To claim them, you'll need to register on the SYNC website with a valid email address to use in a Sora account, using the setup code and directions in the instructions in SYNC's FAQ (no need to re-register if you've participated in previous years' giveaways), clicking “Borrow” to add them to your Sora library as a permanent loan. NB: if you need to free up space on your device later, follow the instructions in the FAQ to only “delete files” and DO NOT “Return” the title, which would remove your future access.
Offered worldwide through Wednesday June 7th until just before midnight Eastern Time, available via the Sora website and app. You can also browse AudioFile Magazine's planned season list to see what will be offered in the weeks ahead and if there's anything you'd especially like to get.

This meant a lot to me. I think sexual assault and trauma can happen to anyone, at any age, but this author speaking from 16 year old Alicia's pov really gave this particular trauma a strong voice.
Alicia's whole life changed after being sexually assaulted by a popular teacher. The girl who ran track and wanted a future was gone, but throughout this story told in verse, Alicia does regain her strength. Particularly with the help of other girls, other strong girls that show her that she is worth fighting for.
I loved the tie-in with Medusa, particularly the ending. I have heard and read many variations on Medusa's story at this point, and it has become so clear to me that she was not the monster in her tale. I am so thankful to all the strong people out there, including this author, writing these stories and helping everyone no matter where they are in life with a problem that is so much more common than what I believe many people may think.

Either way, please remember the production of knowledge and what we generally accept as true. Is it a fact, or is it an electric fence around the yard to keep the house cat from exploring the wonders of the world beyond?
