Amazon Affiliate Link | Bookshop.org Affiliate Link On paper, this should have been the perfect book for me to read Halloween month. I’m fascinated by the historical figure of Elizabeth Bathory, I love a (fictional) obsessive and unhealthy sapphic relationship, and this sounds like it would be a blood-soaked, sexy Gothic in the vein ofRead More

Til reviews The Ballad of Dinah Caldwell by Kate Brauning
Amazon Affiliate Link | Bookshop.org Affiliate Link This is the sort of review best begun with a caveat that I intend no ill will toward those who enjoyed the book… but maybe they’ll want to give it a miss, because I really do not like this book. In fact, I found the reading experience soRead More
Danika reviews The Drowned Woods by Emily Lloyd-Jones
Amazon Affiliate Link | Bookshop.org Affiliate Link “She had never been brave–but she’d always been angry. It would have to be enough. I picked up this Welsh dark fantasy heist novel because I was promised two things: a corgi and bisexuality. I’m happy to say that it delivered on both. And now I need moreRead More
Danika reviews The Dawnhounds (Against the Quiet #1) by Sascha Stronach
Amazon Affiliate Link | Bookshop.org Affiliate Link This is a queer, Maori-inspired, pirate, biopunk fantasy with worldbuilding so intense that I will be honest, I often was not following it all. It takes place mid-war, during a tense stalemate, in a city that’s bio-engineered plants to be buildings, weapons, and almost everything else. Metal isRead More

Larkie reviews Nothing But Blackened Teeth by Cassandra Khaw
Amazon Affiliate Link | Bookshop.org Affiliate Link Trigger warning for suicidal ideation A compact novella with a haunted house story, strained friendships, and a hungry ghost, I had high expectations for Nothing But Blackened Teeth. Were they met? Kind of, but overall the book fell a little flat for me. First off, there are fiveRead More
Danika reviews Our Wives Under the Sea by Julia Armfield
Amazon Affiliate Link | Bookshop.org Affiliate Link I am a scaredy cat and avoid horror most of the year. But when September and October come around, I find myself being pulled towards all things creepy, witchy, and thriller-y. Of course, queer horror goes on the top of my TBR in those months. Fun fact: I’veRead More
Danika reviews Doughnuts and Doom by Balazs Lorinczi
Amazon Affiliate Link | Bookshop.org Affiliate Link I love silly, fluffy sapphic graphic novels. I also seek out queer witchy books to read in October. So I thought this book was going to be a slam dunk! It’s about Margot, a witch who runs a potions business out of her kitchen and starts off theRead More
