The front cover of "Bog Myrte" by Sid Sharp on the right: Beatrice, in a red dress, a round woman with brown short hair, is standing in the left bottom corner on a hill. She's surrounded by many green to blue hills and trees. The hill at the top looks like a hill, but is actually the green head with two eyes and hands that are holding onto the other hills, looking curiously down to Beatrice. On the left, the german back cover is seen. Text: "Die gutherzige Beatrice möchte ihrer Schwester Magnolia, die immer friert, einen Pullover stricken. Von Moor Myrte – einer Spinnenfrau, die im Wald lebt und sich für dessen Erhalt einsetzt – kriegt sie ein Zaubergarn geschenkt und macht daraus einen magischen Pulli für ihre Schwester. Aber anstatt sich über das Geschenk zu freuen, möchte sich Magnolia am Pulli bereichern und befiehlt Beatrice und den ihr helfenden Spinnen, noch viele weitere zu stricken. Was, wenn Moor Myrte das herausfindet? Sid Sharps erstes Buch »Der Wolfspelz« war für den Deutschen Jugendliteraturpreis 2024 nominiert."

A crime fantasy book that technically reads like a youngster’s adventure, yet the themes and language are definitely for adults.

On the left, the back cover. Text: "Sometimes it's easier to disappear into a sci-fi novel than to deal with the disappointing people in your life! The solo debut of writer/artist Kazimir Lee is an atmospheric and profound coming-of-age story about a Malaysian-American teen trying to carve out her own identity in the uneasy space between friends and family."  "Masterful... Azar's earnest struggle to bridge emotional distances is something every reader will relate to." -Rebecca Mickey Mock artist of Compass South and Salt Magic. "Low Orbit is a tender and evocative graphic novel about the pain and joy of all our relationships. You will be drawn into Azar's world with every page. An exquisite debut." -Tillie Walden author of On a Sunbeam. A purple background with objects around the text: a muffin with a candle lying next to it on a plate, an entry ID for an event reading "4-DAy-PASS, star", a pirate-like figure can be seen running in a galaxy; a charger; a moth; a crescent moon and a branch with leaves.

The protagonist, Azar, can be seen floating in the air above a purple-lit village at night with a river flowing in the middle. Azar is wearing baggy clothes, has a short pony tail, a phone attached with a charger to her trousers, and is wearing glasses, while being immersed into a book. A bright, yellow moon in the top right corner with the title "Low Orbit" by KAZIMIR LEE in the middle of it.

After the sci-fi novel became part of Azar’s story, I was sure there was gonna be a twist in there somewhere, like she’s in a coma and then she’ll swim through the world of the novel, which will help her later on in real life…

That was so… heartwarming. Soft and tender, sweet and magical. I was moved to tears here and there, though mostly smiled through it, and deeply felt with all of the characters. It has stirred me so profoundly, especially the ending left me with an unexplainable longing, that I’m a bit too awestruck to form any…
