The Seep by Chana Porter – You don’t have to be a fan of science fiction to enjoy this book. This is a book for our times. Read it!
The just-released novel “Queen of All” by Anya Leigh Josephs is an engaging, sweet coming-of-age fantasy read.
‘Halfway Human’ is a powerful, compelling, and important book. It’s a book that doesn’t let go of you long after you’ve put it down. It makes you think and question humanity and our society and those are the books I like best.
