Here is what Jessa has to say about why she choose this as the first pick for Queer Book Club, "I love Karen Russell. There, I said it. Her latest felt like the right launch book because it embodies the spirit of Queer Book Club: layered storytelling, magical realism, and explorations of belonging and transformation. So Ypsi. I love that it features a prairie witch, a talking scarecrow, a cat, and characters reclaiming memory and identity -- perfect for October. It is quite honestly my book of the year -- the luminous prose and its metaphors for repression, memory, environmental collapse, and transformation -- plus one of the main characters is queer, and the story invites reflection on identity, community, and forgetting versus remembering."
