A Bloody Tale of Lesbian Revenge: Metal from Heaven by August Clarke Review

January 2, 2025 by Caelin

I’ve been a fan of August Clarke since I finished reading their first book, The Scapegracers. I then devoured the whole series, and when I saw that they had an adult fantasy novel releasing, I leapt at the opportunity to read it. Metal from Heaven is a book about lesbians and class warfare. While it’sRead More

An Immersive Steampunk Mystery: A Master of Djinn by P. Djèlí Clark

October 23, 2024 by Emory Rose

A Master of Djinn by P. Djèlí Clark is many things: a steampunk mystery, an anti-colonial historical, an at once dark and whimsical fantasy, and more. But if I had to sum it up in one word, it would be fun. This book gives the reader plenty to chew on while immersing them in a rich world, anRead More

Alexandria Bellefleur Continues to Make Seattle the Romance Capital with The Fiancée Farce

October 3, 2023 by Liv

Bookshop.org Affiliate Link In a year of reading romance novels, I have learned a lot about the genre. First, and most importantly, I enjoy it so much that I usually read an entire novel within a single twenty-four hour period. Another thing that I have noticed—something that threatens to temper that enjoyment from time toRead More

Amelia Westlake Was Never Here by Erin Gough

Shannon reviews Amelia Westlake Was Never Here by Erin Gough

August 8, 2020 by Danika Ellis

Erin Gough’s Amelia Westlake Was Never Here is one of those hidden gems I want the world to wholeheartedly embrace. On the surface, it’s a rom/com of sorts, with a delightful enemies-to-lovers romance, but if you look a little deeper, it’s message is timely and important. Harriet Price is pretty sure she’s got her lifeRead More

The title character, Folly, works with several area women, includingRead More
