one of the most unique were stories I've ever read. I loved the way were-kind were another minority, but never replaced minorities. and the micro-aggressions experienced by Celia, heartbreaking. but that ending, even though I suspected it, the cliff hanger ending... argh.

Imagine you can go back and live an alternate life. You make different choices and have different experiences with potentially different people. Perhaps it means no kids, a different career choice, a different spouse or perhaps no spouse at all. Are you willing to make that choice? You only have a f...
