Staff Review: Once & Future

September 28, 2021 Words Worth Books
Once & Future.jpg

Title/Author: Once & Future - Cori McCarthy & A.R. Capetta

Genre(s): YA, Sci-fi, LGBTQ+

The story of King Arthur takes on a new twist in this imaginative story where we meet the 42nd reincarnation of the fabled king, & the first that is a girl, Ari Helix. At once classic and also totally original and wonderfully intersectional, this book does what the best of sci-fi always does: gives us ideas of fantastical possible futures while also mirroring our world’s issues today.

Staff Reviews!

One of the best things about independent books stores is the personal touch. The staff at Words Worth, we’re readers! We love books of all types, not necessarily just the biggest sellers of the moment. On this page, you can find our hand written reviews, see what we’ve been reading, and what we think you should be as well!

We will be adding reviews regularly. Feel free to read through them all (they’re pretty short), or, if you’re looking for something more specific, use the search feature below to search for Literary Fiction, or LGBTQ+, or Fantasy, or Mystery, whatever strikes your fancy.

And come back soon, to see what new titles we’ve been reading.
