Danika reviews The Luminous Dead by Caitlin Starling

January 2, 2022 by Danika Ellis

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

Sash H reviews Meanwhile, Elsewhere: Science Fiction and Fantasy from Transgender Writers edited by Cat Fitzpatrick and Casey Plett

March 22, 2021 by Danika Ellis

Science fiction shows us worlds of great technological advances and sweeping social changes. It shows us worlds similar to ours where a few fundamentals have changed, or lands beyond the stars vastly different to our own. But it does not always show us what it is like to be trans or queer in those worlds.Read More

Meagan Kimberly reviews Not Your Sidekick by CB Lee

February 23, 2021 by Danika Ellis

Jess Tran comes from superhero parents and has an older sister with powers, but she did not inherit this gene. She decides to find her own way in a world of metahumans and superpowers and ends up at an internship working for The Mischiefs, her parents’ and the city of Andover’s nemeses. However, everything isRead More

Susan reviews Eve and Eve by Nagashiro Rouge

February 5, 2021 by Danika Ellis

Amazon Affiliate Link | Bookshop.org Affiliate Link I believe the entire summary I gave of Eve and Eve on GoodReads was “This is the level of weird horniness I usually find in m/m manga and I almost respect it for that.” The actual summary is that Eve and Eve is Nagashiro Rouge’s single-creator anthology ofRead More

Marieke reviews Down Among The Sticks and Bones by Seanan McGuire

January 25, 2021 by Danika Ellis

For any of you not familiar with Seanan McGuire’s work, she is a veritable master of remixing fairy tale tropes and patterns (and other genres too), on the same level as someone like Neil Gaiman, while of course giving it her own twist every time. In this case, the main two characters are twin sistersRead More

Sooner or Later Everything Falls Into the Sea by Sarah Pinsker

Marieke reviews And Then There Were (N-One) by Sarah Pinsker

December 28, 2020 by Danika Ellis

It seems this year I have read more than my usual share of science fiction (murder) mystery: The 7 ½ Deaths Of Evelyn Hardcastle, Jane, Unlimited, and Gideon The Ninth all fall into this category in one way or another. And in my scramble to find a novella that I could finish in time forRead More

Marieke reviews This Is How You Lose The Time War by Amal El-Mohtar and Max Gladstone

September 28, 2020 by Danika Ellis

Time War reminded me a lot of Good Omens in the sense that two agents–on opposing sides of a high stakes global war that is being fought out across time (yes, time travel) and space and universes, while also only forming a backdrop to the lives of regular unwitting humans–are not as invested in theRead More

Landice reviews Architects of Memory by Karen Osborne

September 27, 2020 by Danika Ellis

I’m not quite sure how to describe my experience of reading Architects of Memory. I started to say it was “a delight” to read, but that’s not even close to accurate, because this is an incredibly heavy book. And when I say heavy, I’m talking “what if corporations really were able to colonize space andRead More

Meagan Kimberly reviews Always Human by Ari North

September 22, 2020 by Danika Ellis

Ari North’s Always Human first appeared as a serial on WebToon, running from 2015-2017. Yellow Jacket published it as a collection in May 2020 as part of a sponsorship with GLAAD. This comic series follows two young women, Sunati and Austen, as they navigate a new, romantic relationship. Set in a future world where almostRead More

Kayla Bell reviews The Tea Machine by Gill McKnight

September 5, 2020 by Danika Ellis

I think I would have liked The Tea Machine a lot more if I had read it back in 2015, when it came out. That was the height of the Doctor Who craze (and the height of my love for the show), which clearly influenced the story of this book. However, where Doctor Who keepsRead More
