clotpoleofthelord:
SO one of my favorite books of this year so far just went on sale for FREE on Amazon. If you like superb worldbuilding and A++ queer ladies, go grab Thornfruit while it’s free!
OK I read this today and uh
oh my god the sweet baby lesbians.
One of them literally can’t actually touch other people so this is about as racy as it gets so far but it’s. Well, it’s adorable. And action-filled. I’m not completely in love with it yet but I may well buy the rest of the series, because it is– I mean, it’s a tidally-locked planet, which is fascinating, and there’s some cool worldbuilding. There are some attempts at plot twists that fell sorta flat for me– like, a lengthy first-person section where I figured out who it was supposed to be and then at the end there was a dramatic reveal of who the narrator was and I was like oh, you were supposed to be surprised, I think, oh.
But! A bunch of it is actually really well-done with inventive world-building and such, and the characters are pretty great, and like I have any leg to stand on about Obvious Plot McGuffin Thingies, Lord– and there’s a Church of Doubt whose priests’ motto is a kind of muttered “but what do I know” that’s kind of great. So, worth a read; it’s a frolic and how can you resist Sweet Baby Lesbians?
