pickThe story starts like ALIEN, then morphs into EVENT HORIZON. I‘m all in for ‘space haunted house‘ tales. This time, an entire planet seems haunted by the crew of a ship trying to locate a mysterious beacon. The pleasant surprise is in the realization that the explanation for all the mysteries is quite clever and satisfying, usually a rare treat. Recommended!

pickThis dystopian sci fi features a nonverbal autistic MC stuck in a strict patriarchal society where she isn't trusted or valued. So when she makes a huge discovery about the “demons“ her people have been battling for generations, things get interesting.
Solid world building, a great main character, and an exciting plot come together to make this one absolutely worth reading, and I'm looking forward to checking out more from this author, as well.
Unhinged update #1: Of all the sibling name pairings...
so-soAn interesting concept, with some engaging characters, but the pace was unbearably slow at times, the author going of at slightly preachy-sounding tangents too often. And one of the least engaging characters was the main character herself.

pickA human and and alien, each representing a rival multi-species consortium, court the ruler of a new alien species they are competing to bring in, and things get interesting.
I picked this up on a whim, and I'm glad I did. Unique, humorous, and full of heart, this book delivered more than I expected, from thoughtful questions about building relationships across cultures to AI translation software with a sarcastic streak. Definitely worth a read!
A perfect kitty circle to say: my #fallingforfallswap #ffs has arrived! Soooo excited for this weekend @Graciouswarriorlibrarian ❤️ 🎉
