A horror sci-fi that explores metaverses to contemplate grief, loss identity and capitalism.

You'll want to be fully caffeinated to read this choose-your-own-adventure graphic novel.

This is my favourite book of all time. I read it multiple times a year. It’s futuristic-sci-fi, but also a love story, and also poetry. It’s structured as a series of letters between two elite soldiers on either side of a ‘time war’. We see the letters change from taunting, to respectful to deeply powerful and loving.

A fast-paced heist adventure novella with a clever rogue main character.

I giggled and kicked my feet through this whole book. The balance between plot and character development is perfect. The pacing is fast, the world building is really well done. The banter between our FMC, Ada, and the man in charge of the mission, Rian, is top tier.

"Alien life exists, and they are assholes"

A dystopian space-epic filled with violent aliens, found family and ultimately hope in impossible situations.

A fast-paced, hard sci-fi space adventure with open door M/F romance. A perfect follow-up to Calamity (book one of the Uncharted Hearts series), although I think you could read Fiasco as an interconnected standalone and be fine.

A genre-defying time-travel story , that's perfect for readers who prefer non-marketable books.I was laughing out loud, biting my nails, holding my breath and moaning softly reading this book. This book is a lot of things, it's a critique of British colonialism, an exploration of identity, it's a time-travel story, it's a slow-burn romance, it's Jason Bourne-level political intrigue and it's a love letter to hope.

Eco-dystopia meets sci-fi homily in this immersive, genre-crossing story about a generation ship arriving at its destination after centuries of travel.

A cozy sci-fi, with low stakes and high hopes.

You'll love getting lost in the multiverse in this sci-fi, horror novella.

Sci-fi space opera stuffed to the brim with conspiracies, romantic angst, and fight scenes as our main characters try to save humanity.

The first half of 2024 is chocked full of AMAZING books I can’t wait to get my hands on, and a few I was able to get earlier from publishers. So you’ll see a lot of these reviews coming through in the next few months. Let me know if you’re excited for these releases too by following me on Instagram @kay_west_reads

A clever, fast-paced YA dystopic sci-fi, perfect for fans of The 100. This book is best read at Apocalypse Camp, while secretly holding hands with your crush. If it seems too good to be true, it probably is.

This month I read 15 books. I’ve listed them below with star ratings, link to the full review (if I wrote one), and a short description.

This book is best read while fishing on a boat. If you fall asleep, you'll dream of running through darkened hallways towards the light. Don't forget to breathe.

Overall this is a fun, sci-fi series, perfect for people who loved the Firefly TV show or the new Star Trek films.

An action-packed, hard sci-fi conspiracy adventure with a rivals trapped on a dying planet. Also there are space zombies (it's not what the book calls them, but yes, space zombies, and they're terrifying)

A fast-paced, hard sci-fi space adventure with open door M/F romance.

From 40 year old single mother pirate captains, to a vampire and mermaid pirate love story, this list will have something for everyone.

This book is best read while isolated on a dead planet, trapped with strangers, by storms. All the more opportunity to read without interruption.
