Danika reviews Light From Uncommon Stars by Ryka Aoki

January 23, 2022 by Danika Ellis

It’s about aliens and demons and curses, but it’s also a grounded, realistic character study. It’s hopeful and comforting, but it also contains abuse, bigotry, and a lot of brutal descriptions of transmisogyny. This disparateRead More

But recently in romance, there has been this massive proliferation of baking show romances (Rosaline Palmer Takes the Cake, Mangoes and Mistletoe, Battle Royal, etc), seemingly because of the rise of theRead More

Danika reviews The All-Consuming World by Cassandra Khaw

January 15, 2022 by Danika Ellis

Amazon Affiliate Link | Bookshop.org Affiliate Link Fun fact: the first Cassandra Khaw book I read was a paranormal romance called Bearly a Lady, about a bisexual werebear fatshionista. I really enjoyed it! But I found out later that this is very much not Khaw’s usual genre.  They usually write horror and sci fi, andRead More
