Maggie reviews Upright Women Wanted by Sarah Gailey

March 15, 2021 by Danika Ellis

Upright Women Wanted by Sarah Gailey is a western dystopian novella set in the American Southwest at a point when almost all food, gasoline, medical supplies, and other necessities have been rationed by the army, and the only books around have to be pre-approved by the government. Normally I think novellas have a tendency toRead More

Sinclair Sexsmith reviews A Lesson in Vengeance by Victoria Lee

March 14, 2021 by Danika Ellis

I got my hands on an advanced reader’s copy of A Lesson in Vengeance by Victoria Lee, which is a dark academia, witchy, teenage boarding school sapphic romance which includes seances, a three hundred year old murder mystery, and ghosts. After seeing about it from the author herself on Tiktok, I had to keep anRead More

Shannon reviews All Eyes On Us by Kit Frick

March 13, 2021 by Danika Ellis

All Eyes On Us, the 2019 release from author Kit Frick, is the story of two teenaged girls, both desperate to hold onto their secrets and their dreams, even if it means teaming up to take down their mutual enemy. It’s fast-paced and twisty, but not without its faults. Amanda Kelly has known she wouldRead More

Danika reviews I’m a Wild Seed: My Graphic Memoir on Queerness and Decolonizing the World by Sharon Lee De La Cruz

March 10, 2021 by Danika Ellis

I’m a Wild Seed is a short graphic memoir exploring the author’s exploration of her identity. It’s about how her “coming into queerness,” but it’s also about her relationship to her racial identity and decolonizing gender and sexuality. Because this is so short, it often reminded me more of an in-depth essay than a graphic memoir–that’sRead More

Rachel reviews The Pull of the Stars by Emma Donoghue

March 9, 2021 by Danika Ellis

Emma Donoghue’s newest novel, The Pull of the Stars (Harper Avenue 2020), is perhaps one of her most compelling historical fictions to date. A fast-paced, stunning novel, I was unable to put down The Pull of the Stars until the early hours of the morning. It drew me into its world in a way that was so riveting andRead More

Danika reviews How Do We Relationship? Volumes 1 & 2 by Tamifull

March 8, 2021 by Danika Ellis

Although I’m far from an expert, I’ve really been enjoying yuri manga lately, especially lesbian manga. (Check out my post: Lesbian Manga and Yuri Manga: What’s the Difference and Where Should You Start?) Although I enjoyed books like Girl Friends, I’d rather read about adult characters–hopefully ones that use words like lesbian, bisexual, or queer toRead More

Danika reviews Butter Honey Pig Bread by Francesca Ekwuyasi

March 8, 2021 by Danika Ellis

This was such an impressive book that I have been intimidated to write about it! It was longlisted for the Giller Prize, and it was on Canada Reads! (If you’re not Canadian: this is a big deal.) Trigger warnings for suicide and suicide ideation, miscarriage and child death, as well as rape and child sexualRead More
