Literary Hot Take: so much for a feminist writer...
Me, in a scathing review of Carmen Maria Machado's Her Body and Other Parties last year: "hell, even Neil Gaiman's short stories, with their active, well-characterized female leads, feel more genuinely feminist than this weirdness."
Me, after Gaiman SA allegations came out: ... well, that aged poorly.
