As part of our 2021 Guest of Honor weeks, the Sirens team recommends books that would be friends with a guest of honor's books. Below is a curated list of titles that we feel complement the works of Sarah Gailey, author of American Hippo, The Fisher of Bones, Magic for Liars, Upright Women Wanted and When We Were Magic. If you enjoyed their work, we hope you check out these other reads—short fiction and super-smart non-fiction in addition to novels—that feature badass queer protagonists, hope, and discovering yourself; contemporary noir, witchery, and weird West; impossible things, reclaimed stories, and truly awesome animals.

Book Friends: Rin Chupeco
Reintroducing… book friends! As part of our 2021 Guest of Honor weeks, the Sirens team recommends books that would be friends with a guest of honor's books. Below is a curated list of titles that we feel complement the works of Rin Chupeco, author of Wicked As You Wish, the Bone Witch trilogy, the Never Tilting World series, and The Girl from the Well duology. If you enjoyed their work, we hope you check out these other reads that feature contemporary fairy-tale retellings; explorations of systemic racism, feminism, and villainy; awesome queer characters; really good book boyfriends; ghosts; snarky phoenixes; and the occasional second-world high fantasy.
