  • I am really, really behind on my comics! Hopefully I'll be able to catch up this weekend. :)
  • I love that all of the Marvel comics say "Rest in Power Chadwick Boseman" at the top.
Can't Wait Wednesday is a weekly feature that's hosted by Tressa at Wishful Endings. It highlights the upcoming releases we're really excited about reading! CWW is a spinoff of the feature Waiting on Wednesday (WoW), that was started by Jill at Breaking the Spine.

Last Night at the Telegraph Club by Malinda Lo
Expected publication: January 19th 2021 by Dutton Books for Young Readers

Synopsis (via Goodreads): Acclaimed author of Ash Malinda Lo returns with her most personal and ambitious novel yet, a gripping story of love and duty set in San Francisco's Chinatown during the Red Scare.

“That book. It was about two women, and they fell in love with each other.” And then Lily asked the question that had taken root in her, that was even now unfurling its leaves and demanding to be shown the sun: “Have you ever heard of such a thing?”

Seventeen-year-old Lily Hu can’t remember exactly when the question took root, but the answer was in full bloom the moment she and Kathleen Miller walked under the flashing neon sign of a lesbian bar called the Telegraph Club.

America in 1954 is not a safe place for two girls to fall in love, especially not in Chinatown. Red-Scare paranoia threatens everyone, including Chinese Americans like Lily. With deportation looming over her father—despite his hard-won citizenship—Lily and Kath risk everything to let their love see the light of day.

"Lo's writing, restrained yet luscious, shimmers with the thrills of youthful desire. A lovely, memorable novel about listening to the whispers of a wayward heart and claiming a place in the world."—Sarah Waters, bestselling and award winning author of Tipping the Velvet and The Night Watch.

  2. I’ve only read up to #6 of Undiscovered Country, it was bonkers but I’m intrigued to wait on the next volume. I’ve got the first volume of Wicked Things on order, I love Giant Days and Bad Machinery so I know I’ll love it.

    1. Right??? It's SUPER bonkers! Like, what if that's what our world actually looked like?? I actually haven't read #6 yet, but I've been slowly catching up on my comics this week. Wicked Things should only have 5-6 issues, I think. I'm not sure if they're going to continue the series, but I really hope they do! I haven't read Giant Days, but I've been told I should. :)
