Favourite books of 2025
[Graphic novels get their own post here!]
My favourite - mostly queer, SFF & historical - books I read this year. It was a rough year and there’s so much horrific news for marginalised people of many kinds, I mostly read purely for fun to bolster my morale, and made a real effort to just not finish books I wasn’t vibing with - it meant I found a TON of books I really loved this year!!!
Almost all

Everyone who kept telling me to read this was right... A bit of history I truly think everyone should know about, told extremely readably and linked very consciously and closely to our present moment. It builds a picture of the dawn of the factory age ...more |

| Always exciting to see a British-publisher YA graphic novel!! I know of this one via the artist - Fuller’s style of imaginative, stylised fantasy illustration works brilliantly here, vividly bringing the world to life. It’s a B&W comic and clearly we ...more | |

| Starts and ends with some truly fantastic plot shenanigans, bad guys, and big drama that I loved. But despite that and the false identity premise, the romance itself is cute, romantic and enthusiastic - so depends if that’s your thing - with a sweet ...more | |

A great queer, funny, ‘uh oh, I need to get married’ regency rom-com caper. Hot mess of a butch MC I loooved. The book combines historical vs playful / anachronistic in a way that really worked for me. It’s jokey, kind of bawdy, and irreverent, like t ...more |

A colourful trans fever dream of a comic. Lush and genuinely visionary feeling and the ending had me choked up. It has really exuberant art and a total lack of regard for fantasy ‘worldbuilding’, throwing in phones and cars and Starbucks so it sometim ...more |

| A slow, beautifully written and inevitably tragic - though not as much as you might expect - imagining of what it might have been like to be Eliza Raine, with a very energetic, compelling (and flattering) take on a young Anne Lister. Clearly drawing ...more | |

Arden Powell's review
of
Assassin's Apprentice (The Farseer Trilogy, #1):
"The thing about a really good fantasy novel is that it can be full of things I nominally dislike (a coming of age story, child narrator, told in first person, (view spoiler)) but the author is so skilled at what she does that all these pr"

“I want to sharpen my pride on what strengthens me, my witness on what haunts me. Whatever we name ourselves, however we end up shattering our self-hatred, shame, silence, and isolation, the goal is the same: to end our daily material oppression.”

“How does one hate a country, or love one? Tibe talks about it; I lack the trick of it. I know people, I know towns, farms, hills and rivers and rocks, I know how the sun at sunset in autumn falls on the side of a certain plowland in the hills; but what is the sense of giving a boundary to all that, of giving it a name and ceasing to love where the name ceases to apply? What is love of one's country; is it hate of one's uncountry? Then it's not a good thing. Is it simply self-love? That's a good thing, but one mustn't make a virtue of it, or a profession... Insofar as I love life, I love the hills of the Domain of Estre, but that sort of love does not have a boundary-line of hate. And beyond that, I am ignorant, I hope.”
