Swashbuckling, Time Travel, and Sapphic Romance: Isle of Broken Years by Jane Fletcher

August 25, 2023 by Nat

Bookshop.org Affiliate Link The first thing I have to say about Isle of Broken Years is that I didn’t want it to end, and it’s been a while since I felt that way about a book. The second thing you should know is that this isn’t just a book about pirates, though the cover andRead More

A Queer, Angry Take on Doctor Who: The Infinite Miles by Hannah Fergesen

June 16, 2023 by Danika Ellis

This was such a let down. I used to be a big fan of Doctor Who (see my review of Queers Dig Time Lords) and am currently trying to catch up on the newest seasons. So when I saw a queer sci-fi book coming out that drew inspiration from Doctor Who, it sounded like theRead More

Kayla Bell reviews Radiant Days by Elizabeth Hand

June 5, 2021 by Danika Ellis

There aren’t many stories that can truly say they’ve done time travel in a unique way. Going back to the past or ahead to the future have already been done dozens of times. A fish out of water, or out of time, is going to make for an interesting story. But Radiant Days does timeRead 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

Sash S reviews Spellbound by Jean Copeland and Jackie D.

September 25, 2020 by Danika Ellis

“Hazel Abbot spent her whole life unaware she was a witch. When a spell thrusts her great-aunt Sarah Hutchinson forward from the Salem witch trials of 1692 and lands her in Hazel’s bookstore, everything Hazel thought she knew about herself changes…” If you want a read that’s fast-paced, fun, and filled with well-rounded and likeableRead More
