Like any normal book dragon with ADHD, my shelves are filled with highly recommended books that I bought a while ago but haven’t read yet. One such book, the one that has sat near the top of my to-read pile the longest, is The Unbroken by C.L. Clark, the first book in her Magic of the Lost trilogy. EveryRead More
Chronic Illness in Dark Academia Fantasy: A Sharper, More Lasting Pain by Alex Harvey-Rivas Review
I feel like I need to start this review of A Sharper, More Lasting Pain by Alex Harvey-Rivas (they/them) with an unusual amount of personal context, stemming from this quoted passage: “Nine months is a long time,” she echoes. And, in this moment, it feels like a lifetime. The line stopped me short because I’m just overRead More
A Delightful Historical Romp: An Island Princess Starts a Scandal by Adriana Herrera Review
An Island Princess Starts a Scandal is the second book in the Las Leonas historical romance series by Adriana Herrera. Fortunately, it can be easily read as a standalone if you’re interested. Sadly, it is the only sapphic entry in the series, but I’m so happy I picked it up! The novel is set primarilyRead More
A Two-Spirit Journey by Ma-Nee Chacaby with Mary Louisa Plummer Review
A Two-Spirit Journey: The Autobiography of a Lesbian Ojibwa-Cree Elder by Ma-Nee Chacaby with Mary Louisa Plummer was this year’s winner of Canada Reads, and if you’re not Canadian, I can tell you that’s a big deal. It’s a TV/radio program where five “personalities” (celebrities of some kind) debate which book the country should beRead More

In 2016, Kristin Russo and Jenny Owen Youngs starting the podcast Buffering the Vampire Slayer. Jenny was a long-time fan, and her wife Kristin was a new fan.

What is Your Life Story?: In the Form of a Question by Amy Schneider Review
I’ve long since cut the cord on paying for TV, and almost the only thing I miss is Jeopardy!. (I know it’s available on streaming now, but it’s not the same.) So I’ve never actually seen most of Amy Schneider’s record-setting appearances on the show—just a few clips here and there—but I certainly know ofRead More

Written by Jake Wyatt and illustrated by the mononymous Choo, The Well is a 2022 graphic novel that takes the emotional and narrative beats of a Grimm fairytale and frames them in an East Asian inspired low fantasy setting. With a main plot built on allegory and archetypes that is grounded by a delightful romantic B-plot, theRead More
