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
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
Mary Springer reviews Out of the Woods by TJ Land

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
Sheila Laroque reviews Maiden, Mother Crone: Fantastical Trans Femmes by Gwen Benaway
I became aware of Gwen Benaway this fall on twitter (@GwenBenaway) with the controversy that was happening in Toronto with the public library and a hateful speaker. More of Gwen’s writing on her experiences of these events can be found here. Also, this fall she won the Governor General’s Literary Award for Poetry for herRead More

Danika reviews The Lost Coast by A.R. Capetta
This was my most-anticipated book of 2019, and it lived up to the hype. I knew from the time that I heard about a YA novel featuring six queer witches among the California redwood forests, I was hooked. This is such an atmospheric, encompassing read. It’s told in a way that mirrors the fantastical events:Read More
Danika reviews Once and Future by A.R. Capetta and Cori McCarthy
That’s what resistance looks like, Merlin. It’s not one glorious, shining victory. It’s a torch you keep burning, no matter what. I’m not even sure how to approach writing about this book, because it is so ambitious. Once & Future is a queer, sci fi retelling of the Arthur myth, with a female Arthur. It’sRead More
