INTO THE QUEER NEW YONDER. I KNEW ITTTTT.
Loved this anthology so much! List book was the perfect book to start with. It was such a fantastic collection of queer stories. I really loved that there's so many different authors and rep in this! I'll include a break down of rep and CWs that I noted at the end of this. Out There: Into the Queer New Yonder is the epitome of space gays. All of these stories are sci-fi and many of them involve space or space travel. Basically, this was the perfect anthology for me. I felt an instant connection
I absolutely adored All Out: The No-Longer-Secret Stories of Queer Teens throughout the Ages and Out Now: Queer We Go Again!, so it should be no surprise that this is yet another fantastic anthology. I can't wait until release day, when I can add this to my shelf, where I can return to it again and again.(I read this book as an eARC from Edelweiss.)
One of the things I appreciated the most about "All Out", the first in this 'series' of anthologies, was the variety in the stories. The same was true here - while all of the stories stuck to the basic theme of the collection, there was a wide variety of relationships and identities, a notable range of future time periods, and varying degrees of believable 'reality' vs. more fantasy-leaning sci-fi, and many stories in-between. Some were set in worlds that were not at all far into the future and
Really fantastic set of queer sci-fi stories, delivering on diversity and unique storytelling. They range from emotional to hilarious, and I'm so glad we have queer anthologies out in the world. Of course, I liked some stories better than others, but as a whole unit, this was so fun to read and imagine.Doublers, Alex London: Rep: Gay MC, gay SC CW: Cheating, outing Thoughts: Future where people can send their consciousness to a new body on mars, but inhabiting both planets is illegal, and a boy
(I gave this 3 stars, but I feel like it's more like a 3.5 stars, curse you goodreads for not letting us to half stars). I find anthologies hard to review because every story is so new. I will say, overall, I enjoyed every story. Obviously, some were better than others (Concerto was probably my favourite of all of them), but there was something to enjoy about each one. The one thing I will say, is I personally found the anthology hard to read, particularly the stories in the middle. A lot of the...
This is an overview of the rep in this absolutely FANTASTIC book. WOW. I want a bunch of these to be turned into full novels in the future. Please.

Got about halfway through and realized that I was seeing reading this as a chore rather than enjoyment and decided to stop torturing myself. None of the stories in the first half stuck with me. Like so many of these short story collections I've been reading lately, some of these stories just seem to stop rather than have a conclusive ending. I should have known better before picking this one up.
Thank you, Inkyard Press, for allowing me to read Out There early!I love anthologies so much because they offer you the chance to savour multiple voices and at the same time give you numerous narratives. Out There, edited by the incredible Saundra Mitchell collected stories from some of my favorite authors ever and made me discover some new voices I can't wait to read in longer format!
I really liked this collection of short stories. It didn't quite outdo the first collection I read. All Out, but it was close. Most of tge stories were strong and only a few left md either bored or ready to skip them. A very unusual thing for a short story collection for me.
Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for the chance to read this early for an honest review. I’m really not a huge fan of time travel, futuristic, or dystopian stories. They usually feel unrealistic or they make me cry because the hope in them is so pure. I did enjoy All Out, the 2018 anthology, so I had some hope for this one as well.I didn’t really love any of the stories, and a few did make me cry. (H O M E and Concerto) So congrats writers?Also, in my reading habits, I’m starting to gravita...
I’ve really enjoyed the past two collections in this series (All Out was my favorite, although I’m biased towards historical stuff), but this one didn’t really do it for me in the same way. There were some strong stories in the collection (particularly the ones by Alex London, Z.R. Ellor and K. Ancrum), but overall I didn’t feel like the stories worked well together, and some of them I just didn’t even finish because of the writing style. Nevertheless, I’m glad collections like this exist, and t...
It's always hard to rate anthologies because of how different each individual story is, but I really enjoyed this one! There was only two or three stories that I didn't really vibe with and the rest I had a lot of fun with. I loved the other two anthologies in this series and Out There was a perfect way to wrap up the trilogy in my opinion. It's been really lovely to read about queer teens existing in a myriad of places in the past and present, and it was really nice to read about them still exi...
