Marthese reviews Not Your Average Love Spell by Barbara Ann Wright
“Camille reminded herself that they had a lot of indoctrination to undo” Not Your Average Love Spell is a not-so-average book that I discovered thanks to Netgalley, for which I am grateful. From the start, this book was one adventure after another, yet it didn’t feel rushed and was well-paced. Not Your Average Love SpellRead More
Susan reviews Zodiac Starforce Volume 1: By the Power of Astra
Zodiac Starforce Volume One: By the Power of Astra is about a team of astrology-inspired magical girls, who have already done that whole “saving the world” thing and are trying to get back to their regular lives. It’s excellent. I love the art and the character designs. All of the girls have really sensible, practical-lookingRead More
Sheila reviews Wolf by Chris Fenwick
The first book in the State Changers series by Chris Fenwick is Wolf. I wanted to read this book to expand more outside of what I usually read. I used to read a lot of fantasy books when I was younger, and thought that this would be a great way to dip back into thisRead More
Bee reviews Euphoria Kids by Alison Evans
I’ve been reading Alison Evans’ work for a while. The main appeal for me is that they are a Melbournian author, and their YA sci-fi/fantasies always have a basis in the city and surrounding areas. I think I’ve written here before about how much that appeals to me. When their newest book, Euphoria Kids, wasRead More

Sash S reviews Don’t Go Without Me by Rosemary Valero-O’Connell
“Two lovers get separated on a night out in a parallel dimension. A ship that runs on memories malfunctions in the dead of space. A giant prophesised to wake from its centuries-long slumber beneath the sea.” This graphic novel is a delightful triptych of stories, all queer, all exploring themes of love and loss inRead More
Maddison reviews The Unspoken Name by A. K. Larkwood
Firstly, thank you Tor, for the e-galley in exchange for an honest review. The Unspoken Name by A. K. Larkwood is an action-packed, high fantasy, coming-of-age story (orcs, necromancers, mages, giant snakes, and countless fantasy races!). Csorwe lives in the House of Silence as the Unspoken One’s chosen bride. On her 14th birthday she isRead More
Marthese reviews The Prince and Her Dreamer by Kayla Bashe
“The Red Prince is like Joan of Arc, if God had been sensible and made her English” At the end of last year I got interested about the story of the Nutcracker. I knew it was a ballet but I didn’t know it was a story… so naturally I looked up queer retellings. This lookedRead More
Danika reviews Of Ice and Shadows by Audrey Coulthurst
Has it really been three years since I fell in love with Of Fire and Stars? I never had a chance against a high fantasy YA about two princesses falling for each other. I was eager to pick up the sequel, and it definitely did not disappoint. In fact, I think this second book has a strongerRead More
