Book Review: Harrow Lake by Kat Ellis
Harrow Lake first burst onto my radar when the publishers were sending out the coolest looking proofs (seriously, check it out!) in the winter.

The Rearranged Life of Oona Lockhart by Margarita Montimore
I was immediately drawn to the concept of The Rearranged Life of Oona Lockhart — it seemed like it had everything I wanted. Time travel! Brooklyn! Women-led fiction! The 80’s! Unfortunately, this one didn’t quite hit the mark for me, but I think that’s because of my own expectations going into it and confusion as… Continue reading

Mini Reviews: The Monster of Elendhaven and Upright Women Wanted
I recently signed up to Scribd in order to listen to more audiobooks while homeworking. I was so pleased to discover that they had a few Tor.com novellas that I had been interested in reading, but couldn’t justify the cost (especially for the audiobooks!). Below are two mini reviews for Tor.com novellas that I recently… Continue reading

Book Review: Wilder Girls by Rory Powers
I had been dying to get my hands on Wilder Girls ever since it came out in the US in 2019. I’m not much of a horror reader, but I’ve started becoming more and more interested in the genre and thought this would be a great way to get into body horror — a subgenre… Continue reading
