A Triumph of Sapphic Sci-Fi Romance: No Shelter But The Stars by Virginia Black Review
My first love was science fiction. I was raised in a Star Trek family, my favorite video game is Mass Effect, and The Expanse is my favorite TV show.

An Open Wound of a Novel: Chain-Gang All-Stars by Nana Kwame Adjei-Brenyah Review
This is a book I respect, and it’s one I struggled to get through.

I canRead More

Seth Haddon’s sci-fi debut Volatile Memory (out July 22, 2025) is one of the best novellas I’ve read in a while. The book follows Wylla, a trans woman, as she tries to live her life as a scavenger.

The Three Queer Books That Broke My Reading Slump
I will be completely honest—I have been burnt out, to the point where I have been struggling to find joy in reading and even finding reading books for my job a burden. I am sure a lot of you have been feeling the same way. But as I went searching for ways to engage withRead More
