Amazon Affiliate Link | Bookshop.org Affiliate Link Ever since I discovered Tamsyn Muir’s Gideon the Ninth, I have hesitated to read it for the sheer fact that it could only be a book that I loved or that I hated. It looked so tailored to my own personal tastes that if it did not deliver, itRead More
Danika reviews Spear by Nicola Griffith
Amazon Affiliate Link | Bookshop.org Affiliate Link The first book I read by Nicola Griffith was Hild, a 560 page (for the first book in the trilogy) meticulously-researched historical fiction title that left me feeling like I was wandering through a dense fog of unfamiliar names and terms–and yet, it was so engaging that IRead More

Nat reviews My Home is on the Mountain by Caro Clarke
Amazon Affiliate Link If I were going to throw a book down into the middle of a fray between Romance readers and Lit Fic lovers, it would be My Home Is on the Mountain by Caro Clarke. This novel is absolute proof that you can have it all. You do NOT have to choose. YouRead More
Vic reviews This Poison Heart by Kalynn Bayron
Amazon Affiliate Link | Bookshop.org Affiliate Link Every time I think I might be done with YA, I read a book like this one. On a very basic level, Secret Garden meets Little Shop of Horrors with Greek mythology on top is just such a fun concept that I couldn’t not love it. Kalynn Bayron’sRead More
Danika reviews Delilah Green Doesn’t Care by Ashley Herring Blake

Cath reviews The Cybernetic Tea Shop by Meredith Katz
Amazon Affiliate Link | Bookshop.org Affiliate Link The Cybernetic Tea Shop has been one of my comfort reads for years now, one of those stories I can reread over and over. Clara Gutierrez is a technician for Raises — small, animal-shaped robotic companions with a limited range of intelligence and emotions. She doesn’t like settling downRead More
Kelleen reviews Delilah Green Doesn’t Care by Ashley Herring Blake
Amazon Affiliate Link | Bookshop.org Affiliate Link “Queer, feminist, angry, and beautiful.” When I say I want sapphic romcoms, this is what I want. I want sapphic romcoms that pack an emotional punch. That present the diversity and the affinity of queer womanhood. That have queer women who call themselves queer with no explanation andRead More
Danika reviews Light From Uncommon Stars by Ryka Aoki
Amazon Affiliate Link | Bookshop.org Affiliate Link I loved this book, but it’s such a tricky, contradictory one to recommend. 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
