Imagine that you are telling a science fiction story for cavemen, a hundred thousand years ago. Imagine that you’re all sat around a fire, half-covered by an outcropping of stone, hoping that tomorrow will be drier than today, and you decide you’ll tell a story about the far future. Imagine that somehow you have theRead More
Alexa reviews Rescues and the Rhyssa by T.S. Porter
Two occasional lovers with many differences team up to save three kidnapped kids. And then it gets even more complicated. Sophi is the captain of a smuggler ship with a diverse crew, including two types of aliens, a nonbinary human, and Muslim humans as well, if I understood the cultural clues right. They are quiteRead More
The Half-Light Makes for a Clearer View: Genevra Littlejohn reviews On a Sunbeam by Tillie Walden
I’m writing this from inside of a curious space. About a week ago I stood up into a cabinet and gave myself a concussion, which I then immediately exacerbated by doing Chinese lion dance in four shows for a local production of The Nutcracker. So my life for a few days was cut harshly betweenRead More
Danika reviews An Absolutely Remarkable Thing by Hank Green
About three years ago, I saw a post on tumblr from Hank Green, which read: “Remember when I said I was writing a story about a bisexual girl and a robot?” I was, of course, immediately intrigued. I’ve been following the Vlogbrothers for many years, and I’ve read almost all of John Green’s books (thoughRead More
Mars reviews Ascension: A Tangled Axon Novel by Jaqueline Koyanagi
Please be aware that although I’ve tried to keep it minimal, this review contains spoilers. Alana Quick is one of the best starship surgeons the non-gentrified City of Heliodor has to offer, or she would be if only someone gave her the chance to prove herself on a real starship. Unhappily trapped in the dustyRead More
Quinn Jean reviews The Apocalypse of Elena Mendoza by Shaun David Hutchinson
[Please note: this novel contains occasional depictions of violence and this review mentions these in the first and final paragraphs] Like its eponymous heroine, The Apocalypse of Elena Mendoza defies categorisation. Hutchinson’s novel never doubts the reader’s intelligence and jumps right into the centre of events at the start. Elena Mendoza is introduced as aRead More
Danika reviews The Swan Riders by Erin Bow
After hearing only good things about the Scorpion Rules duology, I was eager to pick it up. Unfortunately, I read the first book during a readathon, and reading a crushing dystopian story about war and brutality was not the best choice to read all in one sitting. It was darker than I was expecting, so I wasn’tRead More
Shira Glassman Recommends F/F Sci Fi You Can Buy Outside of Amazon
A few weeks ago, I wrote a post full of links to f/f fantasy books I personally recommend, populated with buy links other than Amazon for any of you who don’t want to stop there or at least looking at cutting back on spending money there. I’d like to do another post like that, thisRead More
Susan reviews Space Battle Lunchtime by Natalie Reiss
Space Battle Lunchtime is a two-volume graphic novel by Natalie Reiss, about Peony, a baker who accidentally ends up being an emergency replacement for a cooking show… In space?! Cue sabotage, drama, rival shows with distinctly more cannibalism, and trying to work space ovens. This is super charming and funny. Peony is both competent andRead More
Megan G reviews Cinnamon Blade: Knife in Shining Armour by Shira Glassman
Cinnamon Blade keeps having to rescue Soledad Castillo, and with each rescue her attraction to the woman grows. Once she finally finds an appropriate setting to ask her out, things start to get crazy. Or, really, crazier. As soon as I saw that Cinnamon Blade: Knife in Shining Armor was a sort-of follow up to Knit One,Read More
