Grief, Obsession, and Isolation: One’s Company by Ashley Hutson Review

January 13, 2025 by Danika Ellis

Content warning: this review includes discussion of suicide, violence, and rape. Ever since I heard the premise of One’s Company, it’s been on my TBR.

Danika reviews Fat Angie: Rebel Girl Revolution by e.E. Charlton-Trujillo

I liked the character and thought the language use was interesting, but it was so dark that I felt like I couldn’t find even a glimmer of hope. Despite the many strong elements of the novel–who can resist queer girls kissing to the theme songRead More
