Rust in the root, de Justina Ireland



Rust in the root - Justina Ireland

It is 1937, and Laura Ann Langston lives in an America divided—between those who work the mystical arts and those who do not. Ever since the Great Rust, a catastrophic event that blighted the arcane force called the Dynamism and threw America into disarray, the country has been rebuilding for a better future. And everyone knows the future is industry and technology—otherwise known as Mechomancy—not the traditional mystical arts.
Laura disagrees. A talented young queer mage from Pennsylvania, Laura hopped a portal to New York City on her seventeenth birthday with hopes of earning her mage's license and becoming something more than a rootworker.
With nowhere else to turn, Laura applies for a job with the Bureau of the Arcane's Conservation Corps.
As they're sent off on their first mission together into the heart of the country's oldest and most mysterious Blight, they discover the work of mages not encountered since the darkest period in America's past, when Black mages were killed for their power—work that could threaten Laura's and the Skylark's lives, and everything they've worked for.

Timothy Blake, Tome 3, de Jack Heath



Timothy Blake, Tome 3
Hideout




Jack Heath




 



Timothy Blake has nothing to lose. He's headed to an isolated house in rural Texas with a hammer in his pocket and murder on his mind. His target is Fred, the ringleader of a criminal empire on the dark web. Once Fred is gone, Blake can disappear for good.
But it turns out that Fred isn't alone. Five other psychopaths live in the house. They work together and call themselves the Guards. Torture, extortion and death are their business. Blake manages to convince them that he's one of their online associates. Soon they think he's a monster, like them. They're not wrong.
Blake decides to pick them off one by one. But when a Guard is found with a bullet in his skull, Blake realises that someone else in the house may have the same idea - and he might be their next target.

Genre Queer, de Maia Kobabe



Genre Queer - Maia Kobabe

« Je ne veux pas être une fille. Je ne veux pas non plus être un garçon. Je veux juste être moi-même ».
Dans Genre Queer, Maia Kobabe offre le récit intense et cathartique de son chemin vers l'identification en tant que personne genderqueer (ou non binaire, c'est-à-dire qui déroge aux normes de genre et de sexualité) et asexuelle, et celui de son coming-out auprès de sa famille et de la société.
Parce qu'elle traite d'identité de genre - ce que cela signifie, comment l'appréhender -, cette histoire se révèle un guide aussi nécessaire et utile qu'il est touchant.
