BOOK REVIEW: I Who Have Never Known Men Ever since I’ve gotten back into reading in the past year I’ve heard polarizing things about Jacqueline Harpman’s I Who Have Never Known Men. I know some people that despise this book, who found it to...

BOOK REVIEW: Wheel of the Infinite a Refreshing Stand Alone Fantasy Thank you to NetGalley and Tor Publishing for this digital Advanced Reader Copy in exchange for an honest review.

My review for Martha Wells’s first novel which got a rerelease and revision last November:

Wheel of the Infinite

This looks fantastic

Autistic people don’t need to be “explained away.”

They need to be understood, supported, and respected.

Vaccines do not cause autism.

This lie has hurt people for far too long.

Let’s choose the truth.

Let’s choose dignity for all humans.

✋ Raise your hand if you agree.

Thank you Dee. I’m trying to remember to use and engage in BlueSkye more lol

Many thanks to NetGalley and Tor for providing a digital arc in exchange for an honest review. In many ways, When the Moon Hits Your Eye is the kind of breezy science fiction satire we’ve come to expect from John Scalzi, author of…

My review for The Past is Red by Catherynne Valente, a comical dystopian that meditates on the human experience. Climate change has ravaged the planet and people now live on a giant floating mound of garbage in the ocean.
