What do you think of our picks? Are there any books you would add to this list? Let us know int he comments and come back tomorrow for a full, spoiler-free review and a Q&A with the author on Saturday.
Great suggestions! I look forward to reading SBD’s latest. Would Elysium Girls by Kate Pentecost fit somewhere? Just out this week, it’s set in dust bowl (desert) Dystopia with its girl gang riding steampunkish horses to save their world.
Oh definitely! We are doing a a Q&A with Kate this month too. The book is so good!
Yay! I’ll keep an eye out for your chat. Her book is on its way to me now. Happy reading!
