Iron Widow by Xiran Jay ZhaoIron Widow #1Young Adult LGBT FantasySeptember 21, 2021, by Penguin TeenARC This cover, y'all. Absolutely gorgeous. It sets my cover-loving heart on fire. There was so much buzz about this book on Twitter that I couldn't help but go looking for a blurb. So when I saw it described as "Pacific Rim meets Handmaid's Tale" I knew I just had to read. I would say the description is right on the money. Iron Widow introduces Wu Zetian, an 18-year-old woman who is Continue Reading

Review: Not Your Average Hot Guy by Gwenda Bond
Not Your Average Hot Guy by Gwenda Bond Paranormal Romance October 5, 2021 by St. Martin's Griffin Reviewed by Kate If a description for a book tells me the book is hilarious, I generally hope that I actually laugh while reading it.
