An Unbreakable Code: The Obake Code by Makana Yamamoto
I reviewed Makana Yamamoto’s debut cyberpunk novel, Hammajang Luck, during last year’s Trans Rights Readathon (which is currently ongoing until the end of March). I enjoyed the book’s high-stakes heist and dystopian politics, so I was excited to pick up the standalone sequel, The Obake Code, especially as it stars one of my favorite characters from theRead More

Blue and Red are agents on opposing sides of an ongoing war through time travel. As they both find themselves tired of it all, they begin a clandestine correspondence, eventually falling in love.

Down in the Depths: The Jellyfish Problem by Tessa Yang Review
One of the many niche things I enjoy is the deep sea. There has been something so fascinating to me about sea creatures and bioluminescence and the abyssal and hadal zones for over a decade now—so seeing that The Jellyfish Problem by Tessa Yang (June 2, 2026) featured a giant jellyfish, a strange and isolated island, andRead More
Two Worlds Collide: Coffeeshop in an Alternate Universe by CB Lee
CB Lee’s Coffeeshop in an Alternate Universe, as the title suggests, takes place in two worlds, both very different yet full of similarities. In one, overachiever Brenda has developed a 19-step plan to use science to save the world from climate change. In the other, Chosen One Kat just wants to forget about the prophecy thatRead More
The Queer Historical Broom-Racing Comic You Didn’t Know You Needed: Brooms by Jasmine Walls, illustrated by Teo Duvall
I got the recommendation for Brooms, written by Jasimine Walls and illustrated by Teo Duvall, off of a random list of graphic novels to buy your teens for Christmas, and I couldn’t believe that it’s been out since 2023 and I hadn’t heard of it! It’s so exactly up my alley. Now, I am bringing it to yourRead More
Love Across the Ages: The Isle in the Silver Sea by Tasha Suri Review
The Isle in the Silver Sea is my second Tasha Suri novel. I read The Jasmine Throne in 2024 and found myself impressed with the world building. Whilst its sequel still sits on my ever-growing TBR pile, I knew I couldn’t pass up the chance to read this new release when I saw it advertised—partially because lady knights!Read More
The Horror of Empire, Tempered with Hope: Countess by Suzan Palumbo Review
Begin your year with revolution! Or at least that’s what I thought when I picked up Suzan Palumbo’s Countess. The novella invokes the anti-colonialist spirit so desperately needed in 2026, and it opens with an inscription that acknowledges the crater of its impact: There is horror here, but there is also always hope. We meet our protagonist,Read More
Drew Huff’s Landlocked in Foreign Skin Gets Under Your Skin
With only a few weeks left in the year, 2025 still managed to thrill me with a brilliantly strange and unexpected sapphic sci fi novella: Landlocked in Foreign Skin by Drew Huff. Thus, my novella kick continues. What can I say? Things have been hard lately and sometimes you just need a confection, oozing and tentacled asRead More
Throughout Space and Time: Volatile Memory by Seth Haddon
Seth Haddon’s Volatile Memory follows scavenger Wylla as she the call of an alluring piece of tech—one that will make her a lot of money. Things are not as they seem: the tech is attached to a dead body, and once removed, it speaks to her. What follows leads our mask, HAWK, and Wylla to race acrossRead More
