Review: The Left Hand of Darkness by Ursula K. Le Guin

August 19, 2023 by A.J. Calvin Leave a Comment

I can see why this book was considered so groundbreaking at the time of its publication. While this isn’t a new book, I believe much of it is still relevant today.

If you haven’t read The Left Hand of Darkness and enjoy science fiction, I recommend you give this book a try.

SFF Book Recs for Autism Acceptance Month

April 30, 2023 by Justin Gross Leave a Comment

I’ve been on a journey of rediscovery since I found out I’m autistic. Armed with the knowledge that I’m not as alone as I felt, I’ve been trying to learn more about myself and how my mind works. Through this, I’ve come across some excellent SFF books that are either written by autistic authors or feature autistic characters. I believe that reading is one of the most powerful methods of building empathy and, as it is Autism Acceptance Month, I would like to share (in no particular order) a list of recommended SFF reads with you.
