Maggie reviews A Restless Truth by Freya Marske
Amazon Affiliate Link | Bookshop.org Affiliate Link Last year, I was delighted by A Marvellous Light, a gay murder mystery/romance in which Robin, a newly-made Baronet, is appointed to the wrong government office and is accidently drawn into the hidden world of magical society when shadowy forces think he knows more than he does. With a curseRead More

Til reviews The Gathering Dark edited by Tori Bovalino
Amazon Affiliate Link | Bookshop.org Affiliate Link The Gathering Dark is a collection of folk horror short stories. I went into this book expecting the folk horror short stories. The queerness of those stories came as a delightful surprise. I will own outright that whether or not this counts as a sapphic read is debatable. To me,Read More

Sam reviews Dreadnought & Sovereign by April Daniels
Amazon Affiliate Link | Bookshop.org Affiliate Link I’m not all that into superheroes—I don’t really read comic books, I don’t follow superhero media—but I really enjoyed both Dreadnought and its sequel Sovereign by April Daniels.

Nat reviews Legends and Lattes by Travis Baldree
Amazon Affiliate Link | Bookshop.org Affiliate Link I must confess that I’d seen the cover of Legends and Lattes pop up a number of times and thought to myself, eh, too much of a high fantasy book for my tastes. Well, I should know better by now than write off a book based on genre,Read More
