Blog Tour: Beast
When I got an email about Beast I was immediately intrigued by the idea of a Beauty and the Beast theme with a transgender love story. My instincts were right, because I really enjoyed it. Dylan is completely and totally uncomfortable in his own skin. He feels like he is too much – too big, […]
Last Seen Leaving By Caleb Roehrig

As with many main characters dystopian stories, the first thing you know about Celestine is that she is a good kid. She follows the rules, she doesn’t make waves, and she has her life sort of arranged and planned out the way she wants it. However, you also see that this world is one […]

A Torch Against The Night By Sabaa Tahir
