Last month I finally read Psalm for the Wild-Built, Becky Chambers' new solarpunk novella from Tor.com. The sequel comes out this year, and I'd seen early rumblings for it and finally decided to dig into the first book. This story is part of an old-but-new wave of science fiction, a subgenre which imagines not the... Continue Reading →
Hello, dears! I hope you're all taking care of yourselves during this weird, weird week. No Reading Round-up this month because I only had three stories I really wanted to include and I felt like that would leave it a little short. Expect an extra long Round-up in March, by which point I anticipate that... Continue Reading →
As you all know, occasionally I am blessed with an ARC, and if I read the ARC and enjoy it the book gets its own super special review. And seeing as I did indeed receive this review copy of Dark Breakers, out from Mythic Delirium on February 15th, allow me to tell you what you're... Continue Reading →

Hello, folks. It's the end of the year, which means that I'm taking a moment to look back on all of my accomplishments this year! This year has been kind of wild and unusual, as is the case for many, at least in part because I spent four months traveling and writing and editing. It... Continue Reading →
We are so organized in 2021. So put together with our reading reviews! May that carry over to 2022. May all of your various holidays be joyful, and bright if brightness is your thing. If you prefer the long deep dark of winter, snuggled up in as many layers as possible, hibernating for spring --... Continue Reading →
This year, perhaps because I've read so many books or perhaps because I've gotten so good at tracking them through the Reading Round-ups, I had a really hard time narrowing down my list. But because I feel like I can't break tradition at this point, I did the work. And so! Herein lie my favorite... Continue Reading →
It's that time of year, and here is the first of our year-end posts! I've been doing some kind of favorites list for five years now, which feels sort of unreal but is in fact reality. As always, the rules are simple: did I read it this year? Did I love it? It gets to... Continue Reading →
