You’ll Never Side With the Superheroes Again: Hench by Natalie Zina Walschots
Her superpower is Powerpoint, and she gets shit DONE.

In Music Our Memory: The Chimes by Anna Smaill
A world where music has replaced memories, and two boys who might just save it.
Be the Cog That Breaks the Machine: The First Sister by Linden A. Lewis
If you’re looking for a book where there’s a clear Dark Side and no question who the heroes are, this is not the book for you. If you want an adventure, a heist, capers and shenanigans, this is not the book for you. If you’re looking for a comfort read, a quick read, a fun […]

Queer Recs to Kickstart Pride Month!
Greetings! And okay, I know the blog looks, uh, unfinished at the moment. But I very much wanted my first post to go live on the first day of Pride, so – I promise I’ll have things looking more professional around here soon! But I see no need to wait on pretty graphics to showcase […]
