Amazon Affiliate Link | Bookshop.org Affiliate Link As soon as I heard about a series that follows nuns in a living spaceship — that also has a sapphic main character — I had to pick it up. The sisters of the Order of Saint Rita are ostensibly a Catholic order, but a lot has changed.Read More
Cath reviews The Cybernetic Tea Shop by Meredith Katz
Amazon Affiliate Link | Bookshop.org Affiliate Link The Cybernetic Tea Shop has been one of my comfort reads for years now, one of those stories I can reread over and over. Clara Gutierrez is a technician for Raises — small, animal-shaped robotic companions with a limited range of intelligence and emotions. She doesn’t like settling downRead More
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. It’s hopeful and comforting, but it also contains abuse, bigotry, and a lot of brutal descriptions of transmisogyny. This disparateRead More
Danika reviews The All-Consuming World by Cassandra Khaw
Amazon Affiliate Link | Bookshop.org Affiliate Link Fun fact: the first Cassandra Khaw book I read was a paranormal romance called Bearly a Lady, about a bisexual werebear fatshionista. I really enjoyed it! But I found out later that this is very much not Khaw’s usual genre. They usually write horror and sci fi, andRead More
Vic reviews Light from Uncommon Stars by Ryka Aoki
Amazon Affiliate Link | Bookshop.org Affiliate Link Ryka Aoki’s Light from Uncommon Stars is one of the best books I read in 2021, and it is also one of the weirdest. It centers around three women: Shizuka Satomi (a violin teacher who made a deal with a devil and must deliver seven violin prodigies’ soulsRead More
Danika reviews The Luminous Dead by Caitlin Starling
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
Anke reviews Harrow the Ninth by Tamsyn Muir
Amazon Affiliate Link | Bookshop.org Affiliate Link Content warnings: Horror, graphic violence, character death, attempted murder and murder, body horror, gore, PTSD/trauma, mentions of suicide and suicidal ideation. If Gideon the Ninth seemed confusing, you will look back and call yourself a sweet summer child, as the meme goes, after finishing its sequel, Harrow. AsRead More
Til reviews Gearbreakers by Zoe Hana Mikuta
Amazon Affiliate Link | Bookshop.org Affiliate Link Gearbreakers bounces between high-octane mecha fights, rebellion, intense emotions, and savage banter. It’s a story about a wasteland outside a glittering, high-tech city. It has plot twists and schemes, and characters always willing to break the rules. And somehow, it manages to be overwhelmingly dull. The action scenes shineRead More
Cath reviews The Space Between Worlds by Micaiah Johnson
Amazon Affiliate Link | Bookshop.org Affiliate Link Cara can travel between parallel worlds – but only because her life has been cut short on those other worlds, by disease or turf wars or a million other things.

Rachel reviews No Gods, No Monsters by Cadwell Turnbull
Amazon Affiliate Link | Bookshop.org Affiliate Link Caldwell Turnbull’s No Gods, No Monsters (Blackstone Publishing 2021) is an absolutely unputdownable blend of science fiction and fantasy set in a dark (and queer) world where all manner of creatures live and walk. The central plot of the novel focuses on Laina, who receives news one morning that herRead More
