And by the end, I was overcome with a sense of giddy happiness, because this story was full of hope.Įsther is a woman on the run. This turned out to be a compact but fully developed story with colorful, three-dimensional characters who I couldn’t help but root for. Upright Women Wanted is hard to pin a genre on, but I’m calling it an alternate history western with queer characters, and that description alone should convince you to read it. I’m always curious to see what they are going to do next, since each story feels so different from the last. Sarah Gailey has become one of my favorite writers. And like a bad hand, she could be discarded at any moment. She wasn’t the thing they were playing for. The nitty-gritty: Queer Librarians take on the Man in this rolicking, imaginitive Wild West tale.Įsther was, she realized, nothing more than a hand of cards in a poker game between these three women. This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review.
I received this book for free from the Publisher in exchange for an honest review.
