Amazon Affiliate Link | Bookshop.org Affiliate Link I have a bit of a love/hate relationship with yuri manga. On the one hand, it’s usually adorable and addictive to read. On the other, I’m in my 30s, so schoolgirl love stories (especially ones that don’t actually seem to acknowledge being queer as an identity) are notRead More
Danika reviews Sisters of the Vast Black and Sisters of the Forsaken Stars by Lina Rather
Amazon Affiliate Link | Bookshop.org Affiliate Link As soon as I heard about a series that follows nuns in a living spaceship — that also has a sapphic main character — I had to pick it up. The sisters of the Order of Saint Rita are ostensibly a Catholic order, but a lot has changed.Read More
Danika reviews Cold by Mariko Tamaki
Amazon Affiliate Link | Bookshop.org Affiliate Link I’m writing this having just finished Cold, and I can still feel an ache in my chest. My heart breaks for Georgia and Todd, and all the Georgias and Todds. This is a YA mystery told from two perspectives. Todd is a young queer teen who was foundRead 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
Danika reviews The All-Consuming World by Cassandra Khaw
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
Danika reviews She Drives Me Crazy by Kelly Quindlen
Amazon Affiliate Link | Bookshop.org Affiliate Link If you want a teen romcom in an F/F YA book, this is the read for you! I’m getting caught up on 2021 reviews, and I listened to this several months ago and don’t remember a lot of details, but what more do I really need to sayRead More
Danika reviews A Lesson in Vengeance by Victoria Lee
Amazon Affiliate Link | Bookshop.org Affiliate Link I feel a little “dead dove, do not eat” about this reading experience. I went into it looking for a creepy, unsettling read and then finished feeling unnerved and unhappy about feeling that way. So while I didn’t enjoy this read as a whole, that’s down to myRead More
Danika reviews The Luminous Dead by Caitlin Starling
Amazon Affiliate Link | Bookshop.org Affiliate Link I read this in one sitting during the October 24 hour readathon, and it was exactly what I was looking for. This is about Gyre, who has taken a job to explore a planet’s cave system. She had to lie a bit on her resume, because she doesn’tRead More
Danika reviews Murder Most Actual by Alexis Hall
Clue is my all-time favourite movie, and I’m a sucker for any kind of snowed in story, so when I heard the premise for Murder Most Actual, I was immediately hooked. It follows Liza and Hanna, who have booked a getaway in a fancy hotel in the Scottish Highlands to try to patch up theirRead More
