analysis possible. They particularly valued accounts that captured both the everyday and political efforts that go into making kinship queer. This edited book would have provided the kind of engagement that not only would they have enjoyed, but also learned a lot from. It is full of fleshy and complex narratives of queer family-making, highlighting both the trials and the tribulations, as well as the contradictions that are frequently inherent to seeking belonging. It is a book that asks the reader to remember that the political work of queering kinship is in paying attention to the small details of our lives that colour the fabric of society. In conclusion, we’d like to draw the readers to what the editors write in their introduction: “It is right that we think deeply on this matter, approach it from many perspectives, for what is at stake is significant. The issue goes to the heart of our humanness, our ability to live and love freely, and fundamentally, to belong.” For readers of Feminism & Psychology, this book then is an opportunity to learn from and teach our students about ways of solidarity building with/in queer communities that will allow for more diverse ways of making family and belonging – an always already deeply critical feminist project.
