You are a sacred place – Graphic Novel Review
“People are places, and you are a sacred place.”
A letter to those who are fighting depression and need some hope in their life.
An Accident of Stars by Foz Meadows
An Accident of Stars is one of the most ambitious political commentaries that I have read, set in a distinctive portal fantasy. The book revolves around Saffron Coulter, an Australian teenager who stumbles into a new world where magic is real and technology is rudimentary. Guided by another ‘worldwalker’, Gwen, she becomes ensnared in the…
Star Quest Academy – Book Review
Doesn’t feel that brand new, possibly has lots of similarities to other works (someone on another platform mentioned Harry Potter, can’t confirm though), but it was a fun ride. (And I’m way older than the target group!) Diverse, adventurous, creative, and focused on friendship, which always is a plus. – Story: Quite fast-paced, there’s always…

The Unlikely Pursuit of Mary Bennet by Lindz McLeod (Release Date: Apr 29 2025)
This slow burn, second chance, sapphic romance was an odd choice for me. Based on Pride and Prejudice, a book I am on record disparaging, I was prepared to dislike this book. Strongly. My initial hopes were that I may tolerate this novel and I feel honour-bound to stress this point. I did not expect…
