Daisy X. Machina, the Speculative Detective - Invidious

Daisy X. Machina, the Speculative Detective

This channel was created to combine two of my favorite things: drag queens and reading! I'll review books on a weekly basis, either zapping or blessing them. Whether a new book or old book, whether middle grade, young adult or adult, no book is safe from the Speculative Detective! Most books reviewed are speculative in nature: fantasy, science fiction, horror and any related subgenres.
