Susan reviews On a Sunbeam by Tillie Walden

January 8, 2020 by Danika Ellis

Tillie Walden’s On A Sunbeam is a beautiful f/f science fantasy graphic novel that started life as a webcomic. The first half is split between Our Protagonist, Mia’s, present, where she’s part of a crew that restores old buildings IN SPACE, and her time at boarding school where she has a fledgling romance building withRead More

Susan reviews A City Inside by Tillie Walden

May 8, 2019 by Danika Ellis

Tillie Walden’s A City Inside is a short surreal book about a young woman growing into herself again and again. As you’d expect from me reviewing Tillie Walden’s work, the art is beautiful; the protagonist’s various homes are especially well done, and the way that the art manages to tinge even the protagonist’s happier momentsRead More

The Half-Light Makes for a Clearer View: Genevra Littlejohn reviews On a Sunbeam by Tillie Walden

December 18, 2018 by Danika Ellis

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

Mars reviews We Are Okay by Nina LaCour

July 5, 2018 by Danika Ellis

Not to be dramatic, but we need to start this review with a common understanding stated outright: this novel is beautiful. The prose, the imagery, the point. All of it, beautiful. I found this short novel by completely ignoring the adage about books and their covers, and I am so glad for it. The gorgeous coverRead More

Susan reviews Spinning by Tillie Walden

October 19, 2017 by Danika Ellis

Spinning is a graphic memoir by Tillie Walden about the ten years she spent as a competitive figure skater. It’s beautiful and compelling, but in some ways it’s a hard read. Everything I know about skating I picked up from Yuri!!! On Ice fandom, so I couldn’t speak to how accurate it is, but herRead More

Susan reviews "i love this part" by Tillie Walden

September 14, 2016 by Danika Ellis

i love this part is a graphic novel by Tillie Walden, which effectively serves as snapshots of the romance and relationship between two American schoolgirls. It was described to me as a sweet queer romance… Which is half right. For the most part, it’s simple and straightforward. The two girls are in love, and spendRead More
