Interesting book from an NZ author! Lots of thought provoking themes of privilege, class and women.

#NZWrites: Current WIP

I have uh several but right now I'm mostly working on a yarn shop based sapphic trilogy with magic, and a novel set on a train that doesn't exist.

My YA scifi book 'Migration' won a NZ Booklovers Award today! (I may have danced.) Congrats to all category winners and finalists! The story is about spaceships and aliens and laser guns, but underneath it's about colonisation and grief.
#booksky #nzbooks
Cover of 'Migration' with an indigenous girl in front holding her fists up in a fighting stance, and a boy behind her looking away, but defending her. The suggestion of a city is behind them.

I don't yell about my books enough and I probably should. Do you like fungi? queer rebels? ancient gods? patchwork cities with all sorts of seediness between the seams? You'd like my stuff.
