SPONSORED REVIEW: Danika reviews Dreamland City by Larina Lavergne

March 10, 2016 by Danika Ellis

Dreamland City had me hooked from the first page. Lily, a freshman at Duke University, has arrived on a full scholarship despite not having much enthusiasm for academics.

SPONSORED REVIEW: Danika reviews Colossus of Arms by Madeleine Lycka

March 6, 2016 by Danika Ellis

Colossus of Arms is a sci fi story that has just as much to do with marble sculptures and polyamory as it does with space travel. From the first chapter, it reads as a story about a space expedition–but the exotic locale the spaceship is hurtling towards is Earth. The crew mostly consists of the offspringRead More

Murder Under the Bridge is a mystery novel set in Palestine. It follows two characters: Rania, a Palestinian policewoman, and Chloe, a white Jewish-American journalist doing activism in Palestine.
