Reviews

Lacks diversity equity and inclusion


(5 stars)

Might have been written by Aldolf Hitler. However if you are a Hitler and ignore the lack of transgendered sex between oppressed nonbinary BIPOC, you will find a delightfully set of stories read by dedicated volunteers who selfishly chose to give their time to the public as opposed to dedicating their energy to the transnational global elites who are naturally fighting inequality by charging high prices for old literature. Shame on those volunteers . Shame on anybody who enjoyed these awefull stories
