Book Review: SHE’S A KILLER by Kirsten McDougall

Cover of She's a Killer, by Kirsten McDougall, featuring a pineapple against a black background with a pink border.

“In She’s a Killer, Kirsten McDougall writes a near-future dystopia that does explore these layers of colonization and control, but the core of the novel rests on the personality/psychology of her protagonist and an overall satirical tone that balances the comedic and the disturbing.”

Book review: We Are the Beasts, by Gigi Griffis

Cover of We Are the Beasts by Gigi Griffis, jacket art by Jorge Mascarenhas, featuring a beast's muzzle with bloody fangs coming down from the top, and blood-spattered butterflies flying below.

“I love this book. I love the vividness of its prose, from the immediacy of the opening, when Joséphine is trying to save a lamb that fell partway down a cliff, to her simmering anger at a soldier’s eating three days’ worth of lentils at one meal, to the dread invoked by a swarm of butterflies, and much more.”
