ICYMI: This week I'm over at the Skiffy and Fanty Show taking a look at Nnedi Okorafor's AKATA WITCH, a fantasy YA novel nominated for the inaugural Lodestar Award.
Despite being the second book in a series, Nnedi Okorafor's fantasy YA novel AKATA WARRIOR is accessible to new readers.

This week I'm over at the Skiffy and Fanty Show with a review of AKATA WARRIOR by Nnedi Okorafor. The fantasy novel is well-grounded in the conventions of YA, while at the same time bringing a fresh approach.

Whee, new month! New pictures on my calendars and a mini new start.
