I reread this book recently, and also read the next two books, and I decided to rewrite my review. I'll be honest, it's a lot less work for me to use the same post that already has all the tags and whatnot than to make an entire new post 😅 But I'm enjoying the series! They're interesting queer YA shifter books. I wanted to talk about this one again before posting my reviews for the next two....
I promised this post a few months ago, and here I am, finally delivering! Honestly, it's just a list of books I've enjoyed that happen to have nonbinary characters. In some of these, it's really discussed and a big part of things, in others it's very casual and maybe just mentioned offhandedly or implied. (In real life, they/them pronouns do not automatically mean someone is nonbinary, but for...

Happy 10th blogiversay to me! It was actually last month and I forgot, but ten years is a long time and feels like an important number to celebrate. There are not many things in my life that I've stuck with for ten years or more. Gymnastics, visual art, writing stories and poems, and, of course, reading. (Some I can't do much or at all anymore, but they still lasted a long time.) And now writing...

It's the second half of the year, and that means it's time to talk about more queer sci-fi/fantasy books I'm excited for! There's never a shortage of great sounding books coming out, is there? At least, these all sound great to me, and hopefully you'll still find something you're excited for too! (A few might already have released recently, but that's ok, just means we get to read them...
