Review: Fried Rice by Shih-Li Kow

 Review of Fried Rice by Shih-Li Kow (996 words) Flash Fiction Online, February 2022 : Purchase or Read Online A beautiful concept, beautifully executed. I love how the dad's frustration was portrayed. The narrator, Marta, was equally in grief, but wanted dad to take the first step towards moving on. Cook's personality was also very well developed and I loved the conversation between Marta and Cook. The ending was poignant and touching. Lovely story. One of my favorites this year so far.   Support us on Ko-fi -  https://ko-fi.com/ohjustbooks

Review: Bog Witch by Maya Dworsky

Review of Bog Witch by Maya Dworsky (2291 words) Luna Station Quarterly, Issue 036 : Read Online I love this! Bog Witch is a kickass story, and Taterra is an amazing person. She's a scientist on Hecate III, an old prison moon that she was wheedled into going to for academic purposes as part of the Lioness Project. As she reminds herself ever so often - she chose this. I love that shes a scientist turned witch, and that she's so in control. I enjoyed the feminist angle to the story, too. On Hecate III, thoughts become things. Your beliefs literally shape reality there. How could a scientist pass up on the opportunity to implant herself in this world and observe? But of course, she ends up changing their fabric of reality as well. They think of her as a magician, a witch; and that is what she becomes. As a magician and witch, she becomes part of the royal court, and a girl-prince is born after many many years. Why? Because Taterra said it, and all the women believed it...

Review: Metal Like Blood in the Dark by T. Kingfisher

 Review of Metal Like Blood in the Dark by T. Kingfisher (7180 words) Uncanny Magazine,  Issue Thirty Six : Read Online What a beautiful story to come back to this blog with. After an unplanned hiatus that lasted well over a year, T. Kingfisher has inspired me to come back and love short SFF once again.   Brother and Sister are alone now, because Father had to leave. They are naive; machine children. In this story, Sister experiences evolution of thought that shows her something about thought process, and how other creatures may not be as inherently good as they are. The tale is grim, but peppered with hope. This hope shines through, even in moments of despair. Brother does not see things the way Sister does, and so he does not learn what Sister learns. A tale of hope, faith and protecting yourself and the ones you love. Not despite, but stronger due to, challenges and untrustworthy characters. So glad to be back on the short SFF wagon. What an excellent start. Suppo...
