Speculative worlds:
– Parable of the Sower by Octavia E. Butler – Reviewed.
– The Lathe of Heaven by Ursula le Guin – Sometimes, I have no words for the books I enjoy.
– Killbox by Ann Aguirre – I really loved this addition to the series. So much character growth. Seriously.
Fantasy with LGBTQIA protagonists:
– A Companion to Wolves by Sarah Monettte and Elizabeth Bear – So immersive. I must have a soft spot for stories with the kind of fierce, strange, playful and familial loyalty that exists between wolves and people.
– Captive Prince by C.S Pacat – Reviewed.
Supernatural YA with protagonists from mixed backgrounds:
– Razorhust by Justine Larbeleister – Reviewed.
– Harrison Squared by Daryl Gregory – Reviewed.
Non-fiction for those who wander:
– Zen in the Art of Writing by Ray Bradbury – Just brilliant. Both practical and inspiring.
– Daring Greatly by Bene Brown – Wonderful advice on building resilience. See the TED Talk.
The Soul of the Marionette: A Short Inquiry into Human Freedom by John Nicholas Gray – Reviewed.
