Danika reviews The One Hundred Nights of Hero by Isabel Greenberg

December 30, 2016 by Danika Ellis

I have to start this with my Goodreads status update from 5 pages in: I literally cannot handle how much I like this book. I can’t get through a page without cackling or exclaiming. The art! The narration! The surreal worldbuilding! The f/f couple in the middle of it!!! The feminism! The cleverness! Like, IRead More

Jess van Netten reviews Secret Diaries Past & Present: Q&A with Helena Whitbread & Natasha Holme

December 29, 2016 by Danika Ellis

In understanding my consumption of the diary of Anne Frank, my devouring the entirety of Anne of Green Gables, Susan Howatch’s Cashelmara, Bryce Courteney’s Jessica and later in life pouring through Ruth Maier’s diary in one sitting, you could say I have a fascination with the personal details of others; particularly women. As such, IRead More

Tierney reviews Here’s the Thing by Emily O’Beirne

December 28, 2016 by Danika Ellis

When Zel’s family moves back to Australia from the United States, she has to find her bearings in Sydney, while also making sense of the relationship she left behind: as Zel narrates the process of settling in and making friends at her new school, she also uses flashbacks to tell the story of meeting andRead More

Danika reviews Ice Massacre by Tiana Warner

December 27, 2016 by Danika Ellis

Why did no one tell me about this book earlier?? Honestly, this should be much more well known. Ice Massacre is about Meela, and 18-year-old girl who has been trained to fight killer mermaids. She’s needed to defend her island, but she has qualms about being sent out to massacre the “sea demons”: she befriended oneRead More

December 26, 2016 by Danika Ellis

Everybody’s looking for their tiny piece of meaning. Some fleeting perfect thing that might make them more alive. ~The Bricks that Built the Houses, Kate Tempest Dream, if you can, a courtyard… where your view of the sky above is condensed by the high walls that surround you into the smallest swath of blue, whereRead More

Megan Casey reviews Red Rover by Liz Bugg

December 21, 2016 by Danika Ellis

I confess that I like this book a little more than I originally thought I would. Maybe it’s because I liked the design and feel of the Insomniac paperback version, which is very easy on the eyes. Or maybe it was the very professional pace that Bugg was able to adhere to throughout. I alsoRead More

Susan reviews We Go Around In The Night And Are Consumed By Fire by Jules Grant

December 15, 2016 by Danika Ellis

We Go Around In The Night And Are Consumed by Fire by Jules Grant is wonderful. It revolves around a group of lesbian gangsters in Manchester, which is the perfect intersection of two of my interests and my hometown in ways that I didn’t even know I wanted. Donna and Carla lead the Bronte CloseRead More
