Thanks for visiting my little slice of the internet. I’m so glad you’re here.
Let's be friends.
All in Fiction
Ghost Forest is a beautiful, reflective little book on the immigrant experience and the loss of a parent. I thought it was really beautiful.
Meant not just to mimic jazz music but to embody it, Jazz is a sweeping, beautiful novel with exquisite prose. I’m in awe of Toni Morrison always!
Another fun, fast-paced Murderbot novella in the bag! These audiobooks are the perfect snack to my weekends as I shop for groceries, clean my apartment, etc.
The Once and Future Witches is the best kind of witchy historical fantasy book: atmospheric, feminist, well-researched, emotional. Also, gorgeous prose. I loved every second of it.
All’s Well is a weird, frustrating, trippy, impressive, darkly funny story about being a woman with chronic pain. The right readers will love it.
The Five Wounds is simultaneously big-hearted and unflinching, with characters who feel like they could literally step off the page. I really liked it.
A Psalm for the Wild-Built is a beautiful, funny, hopeful novella full of heart and what it means to be human. I really, really loved it.
Rock the Boat is a fun, heartwarming story — like a Lifetime movie, but with better characters and more heart. A true lighthearted beach read if I ever read one.
Olympus, Texas is a roller-coaster read full of heart — part contemporary literary fiction, part Greek mythology retelling. I enjoyed every second.
Who They Was is autofiction that doesn’t make for an easy read, but it’s nothing if not unique — and effective in what it set out to do.
Artificial Condition was such a good sequel to All Systems Red! I’m hooked into Murderbot’s story (and life). Can’t wait to read the next one.
All the Birds in the Sky is a whimsical, super creative novel with some really lovable characters. I loved how it blended fantasy and sci-fi. A new favorite!
Piranesi is literary fiction with so much magical realism that it tips into fantasy — so basically, perfect for me. This book was intriguing and creative and I really liked it!
All Systems Red was a fun, fast-paced novella and a great start to the Murderbot series! I can’t wait for more Murderbot self-discovery and adventures.
Filthy Animals is, as we expect from Brandon Taylor, a masterful collection of stories; I especially loved the linked ones. This book more than lives up to the hype.
