Susan reviews Space Battle Lunchtime by Natalie Reiss

July 11, 2018 by Danika Ellis

Space Battle Lunchtime is a two-volume graphic novel by Natalie Reiss, about Peony, a baker who accidentally ends up being an emergency replacement for a cooking show… In space?! Cue sabotage, drama, rival shows with distinctly more cannibalism, and trying to work space ovens. This is super charming and funny. Peony is both competent andRead More

Vacation Reads by Julie Thompson

July 10, 2018 by Danika Ellis

Part of the idea behind selecting summer reads is vacationing from our jobs, whatever they may be. I’ve already taken my longer vacation, tramping up and down the streets of San Francisco. Now, I squeeze in the odd long weekend here and there, scouring stacks of unread books for the one (or two…or five) thatRead More

Alexa reviews The Unbinding of Mary Reade by Miriam McNamara

July 8, 2018 by Danika Ellis

My rating: 3.5 stars I’ve been obsessed with Mary Read ever since I played AC: Black Flag, and while nobody can live up to that interpretation of Mary for me, I was really excited to read a book about her and see a different take. I found that the title matches the book beautifully, becauseRead More

Danika reviews Girl Made of Stars by Ashley Herring Blake

July 6, 2018 by Danika Ellis

Trigger warning: discussion of rape in review, description of rape, PTSD/panic attacks, and rape culture in the novel Ashley Herring Blake’s previous novel, How To Make a Wish, was a 5 star read for me. So of course I put a hold on her newest YA as soon as it was available. I wish I had rememberedRead More

Mars reviews We Are Okay by Nina LaCour

July 5, 2018 by Danika Ellis

Not to be dramatic, but we need to start this review with a common understanding stated outright: this novel is beautiful. The prose, the imagery, the point. All of it, beautiful. I found this short novel by completely ignoring the adage about books and their covers, and I am so glad for it. The gorgeous coverRead More

Danika reviews P.S. I Miss You by Jen Petro-Roy

July 4, 2018 by Danika Ellis

My first introduction to P.S. I Miss You was Jen Petro-Roy’s Entertainment Weekly article, where she talks about how her book didn’t get a tour through schools, because all but one school considered it “too mature.” That’s a shame, because this middle grade book has a lot to offer. It’s an epistolary novel, told in lettersRead More

Mary Springer reviews In Development by Rachel Spangler

July 3, 2018 by Danika Ellis

Cobie has been in nice, safe romance films for too long. She wants to challenge herself with by acting in the lead role of Vale, but studios won’t take her because she lacks an edgy public persona that will sell the character to audiences. Lila is a pop star who is taking the world byRead More

Rebecca reviews Gold by E.J. Noyes

July 1, 2018 by Danika Ellis

E.J. Noyes’ Gold is a sports-centred novel with a great and relatable protagonist and a very steamy and sweet romance. Our protagonist is Aspen Archer, a former Olympic skier whose career ended after a disastrous injury. With her body and spirit broken, Aspen hides out at ski resorts, coaching tourists and avoiding her problems. While coaching atRead More
