Review: Someone Else’s Shoes by Aldrea Alien

This queer Cinderella retelling is only a novella, but it packs in a lot of worldbuilding and character work!

Time for #SweepUpYourSmols!

Tomorrow marks the start of another round of #SweepUpYourSmols, the sister to my #ConquerAChonker readathon. Where #ConquerAChonker asks you to read a big book (over 450 pages), #SweepUpYourSmols is all about ticking off as many little books (under 300 pages) as you can manage in a weekend! I thought I’d show you the books I’ll be choosing from this weekend – it’s an eclectic mix, with little in common between the books other than their length…

Review: A Spindle Splintered and A Mirror Mended by Alix E Harrow

A double review today, for a pair of novellas that are so good, I’m almost angry I didn’t write them…

Review: The Selkie Scandal

You should probably know, if you’ve been here a while, that I love little more than a good fantasy of manners, and this fun novella is a great start to a new series that looks like it’ll be exactly my cup of tea!

Review: Succulents and Spells

Succulents and Spells is an adorable f/f contemporary fantasy full of sweetness, magic and monster science!

Review: Silver in the Wood

I was instantly sold on this novella the moment I heard about it – creepy English folklore and queer romance is basically my ideal read. I was thrilled to be approved for it on NetGalley, and I already know I’m going to need a hard copy!

Review: Snapshot

When Gollancz offered me the chance to review the latest Brandon Sanderson, chances of me turning it down were at 0%. I love his fantasy books, and I love how prolific he is so you’re never waiting too long for the next one… Snapshot is way more sci-fi than fantasy, but it has his trademark awesome world-building and gorgeous plotting, even in only 130 pages!
