Love Across the Ages: The Isle in the Silver Sea by Tasha Suri Review
by Kim B.
The Isle in the Silver Sea is my second Tasha Suri novel. I read The Jasmine Throne in 2024 and found myself impressed with the world building. Whilst its sequel still sits on my ever-growing TBR pile, I knew I couldn’t pass up the chance to read this new release when I saw it advertised—partially because lady knights!Read More

A Queer Boarding School Gothic: Spoiled Milk by Avery Curran Review
by Maggie
Everything about the summary to Spoiled Milk by Avery Curran (out March 10, thank you to Doubleday for the ARC) made me so unbearably excited to read it. “The untimely death of a student at a girls’ boarding school turns out to be the first in a haunting series of escalating supernatural events. A thrilling debut novel aboutRead More

While I’m not usually much of a sports romance person, recent pop culture events have gotten me a little more intrigued by the genre.

While her existence is debated, her legacy nonetheless makes for a fascinating story, one that deserves to be shared as widely as any other historical (or semi-historical)Read More

Finding Yourself On a Cross-Country Train Journey: Leaving the Station by Jake Maia Arlow Review
by Mik
I have been eagerly awaiting this book since the moment Jake announced it on Instagram as a YA (arguably, New Adult) novel about a cross-country train journey (shoutout to the Amtrak Empire Builder, which I’ve never ridden anywhere near the distance the route actually spans, but have caught a leg of), an ex-Mormon (samesies), and aRead More

A Snack-Sized Coming of Age Romance: A Bánh Mì for Two by Trinity Nguyen Review
by Allie Greene
Trinity Nguyen’s debut novel was not what I expected—in the best way. Vivi, a Vietnamese American, lies to her parents about where she’s studying abroad. With a mother who refuses to speak of the Vietnam she fled as a young adult, Vivi is desperate for some connection with her roots and potential family she hasRead More
