Kind of like Romeo and Juliet except instead of two teens in fair Verona we have two agents from opposing futures fighting across time and space and also it's gay.

When I was little, I read my copy of Daulaire's Book of Greek Myths so many times the spine broke and we had to keep it together with tape. This book brings back that feeling, except it's a beautiful hardcover, so it'll probably hold together longer.

Giant robot gladiator fights, self-rescuing princesses, cyborg spies, patriarchy smashing... this book has it all.

If you're driven to find good books for the little ones in your life, this one counts.

This has all the space pirates and all-powerful tyrannical empires you could want, with added nuance and social commentary. This book shifts from corporate thriller to space opera with exceptional grace, and gives us the brilliant, analytical, difficult to impress Vivian Liao as our guide. Plus, it's just a ton of fun.

This book will make you laugh and destroy you emotionally, often at the same time. You've never met a hero like Gideon before. Plus, you can't go wrong with lesbian necromancers in space.

It’s tough to be a woman, especially in a superhero world. They tend to be casualties to the storylines of men, and it’s so common there’s a name for it: women in refrigerators. Valente gives these women a voice and the chance to take their stories back and claim their own narrative. It’s brutal, brilliant, and beautiful and even knowing the stories can’t end well, you find yourself hoping maybe this one will be different.

Nightmares are bad, but Tiger doesn’t have to worry about that. The Monster under her bed is her best friend and scares them all away. Until one comes that’s so big and scary that even Monster is frightened. Only friendship and teamwork can save the day now!

I wish I could live in the world Rebecca Kim Wells has built in SHATTER THE SKY. This book has it all: adventure; intrigue; a culture that accepts queerness without question; a protagonist who is clever, practical, determined, and impossible not to love. And, of course, DRAGONS!

The only thing that would make me love this book more is if it had been published 15 years ago so I could have read it over and over again as a teenager.
