I know some people get weirded out by the earnestness of queer allies, but I love every cis/straight person loudly showing their support for their LGBTQIA friends, families and random strangers.

Demonstrating to others their acceptance and love is an important art of normalising our existence too.

29 revolutions around the Sun; and honestly, reviewing, interviewing and more about books continue making me so happy.
I must thank those that have to deal with my bullshit, especially friends, but also authors, bloggers, publicists, editors! (I would write more, but words are not my strength)

The Isle in the Silver Sea, by Tasha Suri (pub by @orbitbooks.bsky.social), is a powerful story that needed to be told, a novel that hides an important message behind the lines; an epic romantasy that was simply excellent.

"...unsettling and immersive sci-fi thriller. Readers will be on the edges of their seats."

PUBLISHERS WEEKLY BABY

www.publishersweekly.com/9781787589186
The Night Ship Alex Woodroe. Flame Tree, $26.95 (224p) ISBN 978-1-787589-18-6 Woodroe (Whisperwood) expertly maintains suspense throughout this unsettling and immersive sci-fi thriller about an apocalyptic event in 1987 Romania. Heroine Rosi has “made it a point of survival to think as little as possible about... goings-on beyond what was strictly in front of her.” She’s taken advantage of the logging truck used by her fiancé, Gigi, to facilitate her smuggling business. On a routine excursion in that vehicle, the pair pick up a hitchhiker, Sorin, who claims to be a philosophy student, though Rosi soon comes to suspect that he is a government informant, if not actually a member of the country’s notorious secret police. Before she can test this theory, darkness falls like a physical force from the sky and “swallows the world.” In this new pitch blackness, segments of once solid ground are replaced by an inky substance that drags down all objects that land in it. With the truck’s cabin one of the only safe refuges, this unlikely trio set out to make sense of what’s happened and rescue survivors. Woodroe parcels out reveals about the nature of the dark void gradually but effectively. Readers will be on the edges of their seats. (Jan.)

Lives of Bitter Rain, by Adrian Tchaikovsky (pub by Head of Zeus) is a great bite-sized novella in the world of the Tyrant Philosophers that fleshes out a key character; a character-driven novella in contraposition with the choral play that are the novels
