Vic reviews Gideon the Ninth by Tamsyn Muir
Amazon Affiliate Link | Bookshop.org Affiliate Link Ever since I discovered Tamsyn Muir’s Gideon the Ninth, I have hesitated to read it for the sheer fact that it could only be a book that I loved or that I hated.

Danika reviews Light From Uncommon Stars by Ryka Aoki
Amazon Affiliate Link | Bookshop.org Affiliate Link I loved this book, but it’s such a tricky, contradictory one to recommend. It’s about aliens and demons and curses, but it’s also a grounded, realistic character study.
