- Someone You Can Build a Nest In by John Wiswell - very enjoyable monster-girlfriend story from the POV of the monster girlfriend.
- Beyond the Dragon's Gate by Yoon Ha Lee - was poking around Hoopla and was happy to find and read this little gem about AI and ships and bodies and rebellion.
Still reading:
- The Fractured Dark by Megan O'Keefe. I enjoyed the first book, and I continue to find it interesting how the bioprinting and neural map system in this series leads to some interesting situations and innovative problems as the characters basically use it to teleport around and create clones of themselves. I still feel like it's based on kind of handwavy science, but I'm intrigued enough to let it go.
- That Time I Got Drunk and Saved a Demon by Kimberly Lemming. Still fun, and a nice counterpoint to The Fractured Dark. I'm liking this author's take on romances, and the tone she takes. It's a mix of character building and genre conventions that actually makes the characters feel like real people rather than genre cut-outs.
- Full Speed to a Crash Landing by Beth Revis. Another spoil of my Hoopla trawling. So far I'm enjoying the main character as she got saved by a probably-spec ops military ship and is no doubt about to get involved in their shenanigans. It's kind of like watching a happy weasel noodle let loose on a ship full of Srs. Bizness German Shepards.
