Some think she’s a Norwegian Forest Cat mix, a tiny little version. I immediately whisked her away and took her home and bought everything I needed to have a kitten (a bed, litter box, etc.) and my life was changed forever. And I was like, “Alright, somebody give me this, whatever this is, because I need to hold it immediately.” Then I held her and she fell asleep in my arms. ![]() She was in a ball, the only brown one, in the back of a cage being very antisocial. I didn’t even see Millie at first because her sisters were both orange and very fluffy and very outgoing, and they were also both already adopted. ![]() I asked what the backstory was, and apparently an old lady opened her garage one morning and just saw three kittens in there - the cutest possible little creatures. One day I went in there for something, probably for my dad’s dog, and they had three little kittens. I don’t know how to describe it and it’s no longer there, but they had a section where if people found animals they could bring them in and they would have them available for adoption.

What I can say, that this is honestly the first time I have encountered book that involves pirates, vampires and mental illness all at the same time. I don’t know whether it’s cliché or it’s one of a kind. I don’t know whether to cheer the ending or lament it. I don’t know whether it’s brilliant or it’s not. I wouldn’t really say confused with bad connotations, I just don’t know what to think of this book. Hinton is a book that has left me a little confused. ![]() ![]() The play ends with him passing the exam and the realisation that he can do anything he puts his mind to.

(Willow’s queerness was also integral to my own journey to figuring out my own – to a point – but I didn’t quite understand that when I was a tween.) I remember being a preteen watching Buffy without any expectations and being excited to realize that Willow Rosenberg taught herself how to be a witch. Even in blood-focused societies, there’s always a Hermione who doesn’t need to be genetically gifted because she has skills. One of the coolest things about witches and wizards in urban fantasy is that there’s often an element of “anyone could be one” across the narrative. ![]() Despite all of Rowling’s many (many) faults, that book series that’s now viewed as part of the Western canon helped nudge me on towards a deep love of urban fantasy that’s still obviously present to this day. I think Rowling’s work was the first “witchcraft and wizardry” book I read as a child. I grew up reading Harry Potter in the Virgin Islands. ![]() ![]() ![]() I read Black Boy around the age of 11 or 12, then Morrison’s The Bluest Eye a year or two later. ![]() Although I grew up in a town in Nigeria, the two first American writers I ever read were black: Richard Wright and Morrison.

There was no sign that the end of our constant supply from her reserve of wonderful stories and ideas was anywhere near. ![]() And until recently, we have seen a steady stream of novels from her, including God Help the Child, which was published on the same day as my debut novel The Fishermen, in 2015. The Source of Self-Regard – a further exploration on some of the broader themes of race and dignity that she explored throughout her life in novels such as Beloved and The Bluest Eye – was released only a few months ago, published in outside of the US under the title Mouth Full of Blood. At the age of 88, she had continued to give us her stories and thoughts. If we judge being old as a more feeble state, or characterised by a gradual withdrawal from work, then Morrison, like most great writers, had not become old. ![]() |
