As a child Amy loved reading and writing, so naturally she graduated with a degree in biomedical science and has worked in a microbiology laboratory ever since. Her passion is writing, however, and she turned back to it during her years at university. When she is not writing about surviving apocalypses, vampires feeding on the rich, exploring space, and conquering magic--all celebrating queer love-- she can be found reading or playing games about those very things.

She lives by the sea with her wife and their eighteen year old cat, who still runs around like a kitten.

Amy is the author of the VAMPIRES trilogy WE'RE ALL MONSTERS HERE and SHOW ME YOUR TEETH, with book three due 2025, and the SURVIVORS duology, SURVIVORS and THE SAFE ZONE. She h

3.5 stars rounded up. I enjoyed the world building, which was detailed for a novella, and I enjoyed Agnir's and Hadhnri's romance. The writing itself was good, too.

Two things stopped me from rating this higher, however. The first is that while the wr

Fate's Bane by C.L. Clark
"The star-crossed lover tragedy aspect would have worked better if the love interest has been given a personality unfortunately. Very pretty book when it comes to aesthetic and the Old English legend aspect but very weak in the romantic department whi" Read more of this review »

This is split into 3 acts, following Cybil/Esther/Rosamund Harding's 3 lives. I really enjoyed how each act was its own complete story, yet also fit into the overarching narrative. The writing was also incredibl

“Money, money, money. You PC pricks are all about the money, aren't you?"
Jensen frowned at the casual way she lumped him in with the rest of the bastards who worked for the Planetary Council. Which he technically also did. But it wasn't like he'd had a choice. One didn't turn down becoming a shadow agent. Not if you wanted to keep on breathing.”
