Fantasy and science fiction books and blogposts
I've not been reading a lot because I've been writing and editing so much, and otherwise going on adventures. But here is my brief and belated list for the month of September! Sword Stone Table I've not been reading as many short stories as I'd like this year, largely because what time I spend in... Continue Reading →
June has been an absolute riot of activity, and I almost didn't get this post written. My brother got married, we're planning for our trip, we bought a car somehow??? The mechanics of buying the car are of course understood but the buying of the car was kind of a surprise. Anyway, there's a lot... Continue Reading →
Back in early May I foolishly asserted that I wasn't sure I was going to have anything for a May round-up. And then I read some of my favorite books this year.

Aro/Ace, Science Fiction, Dystopia I read Firebreak by Nicole Kornher-Stace back in 2020, in November, while I had Covid. It's a story about a gamer named Mallory set... Continue Reading →
December and January were kind of a lot, so I ended up forgetting to add a few lovely stories to my January list. You'll see them here. Of course, I also read some great stuff in early February, some of which even came out in February (gasp!). Books are such a comfort. Depart, Depart by... Continue Reading →

Happy Thanksgiving. If you, like me, have a virtual Thanksgiving this year then I wish you the best of luck with your wifi connection. In the meantime, here are the books I've been reading in order to get through my Covid-generated quarantine and general sense of weirdness this month. My Best Friend's Exorcism by Grady...
