“Miryem is the daughter and granddaughter of moneylenders… but her father isn’t a very good one. Free to lend and reluctant to collect, he has loaned out most of his wife’s dowry and left the family on the edge of poverty–until Miryem steps in. Hardening her heart against her fellow villagers’ pleas, she sets out to collect what is owed–and finds herself more than up to the task. When her grandfather loans her a pouch of silver pennies, she brings it back full of gold.

But having the reputation of being able to change silver to gold can be more trouble than it’s worth–especially when her fate becomes tangled with the cold creatures that haunt the wood, and whose king has learned of her reputation and wants to exploit it for reasons Miryem cannot understand.“ GOODREADS

This is the best book I read in 2018. It’s eerie, fairy-tale like and romantic. Naomi Novik is definitely one of my all-time favorite writers. I love love love her portrayal of girls and women and their relationships with each other. Both her main and supporting characters are fleshed out and equally engaging to read about.

The story revolves around two heroines whose fates intertwine more and more as the plot unfolds. Their male love interests (one is the king of some kind of ice elves, the other the tsar who’s possessed by a fire demon) learn to appreciate and love them for their characters, skills and actions.

Spinning Silver features almost every trope I love:

  • heroines who are capable instead of beautiful 
  • enemies to lovers 
  • arranged marriage
  • villainous crush

Most F***able Aliens on Science Fiction TV Shows

Star
Trek (of course)

Star
Trek DS 9

“In
the vicinity of the liberated planet of Bajor, the Federation space
station Deep Space Nine guards the opening of a stable wormhole to
the far side of the galaxy.” (IMBD)

The
Star Trek universe is filled with aliens doing humans doing other
aliens doing so much space drama. Anyway out of all the different
Trek series Deep Space 9 was always my favorite because:

  • all
    the characters were morally gray
  • a
    minimum of Star Fleet self righteousness
  • my
    favorite shape shifter Odo (Any shape. The
    possibilities!)
image
  • the
    Cardassians. My favorite was Gul Dukat who had a villainous crush o
    Kira Neris. Very problematic. I loved it.

image
  • Kira
    Neris who had a canon relationship with
    Odo and the very hot villainous crush thing with Gul Dukat.

Babylon
5

“In
the mid 23rd Century, the Earth Alliance space station Babylon 5,
located in neutral territory, is a major focal point for political
intrigue, racial tensions and various wars over the course of five
years.” (IMBD)

A
space station full of morally gray and therefor very engaging
character? Also hot aliens? Sign me up!

My
favorites:

  • Lennier
    (poster child for looks like a cinnamon roll but could kill you)
image

  • G’Kar (virile lizard man) and his archenemy/buddy Londo Mollari (tentacles!)     
image


  • canon relationship between ambassador Delenn and commander John Sheridan   
image

Defiance

“In
the year 2046, it’s a new Earth – with new rules. Over thirty years
after various alien races arrived on Earth, the landscape is
completely altered, terraformed nearly beyond recognition. To the
town of Defiance, on what used to be St. Louis, comes the mysterious
Nolan (Grant Bowler) and his charge, Irisa (Stephanie Leonidas). As
they settle into town – overseen by the mayor, Amanda Rosewater
(Julie Benz) and filled with residents like the powerful Rafe
McCawley (Graham Greene), enterprising lounge owner Kenya (Mia
Kirshner) and the ambitious, alien Tarrs (Tony Curran and Jaime
Murray) – events begin to unfold that threaten the fragile peace this
border town has fought for.” (IMBD)

My
favorites:

  • Successful
    human father/alien daughter adoption story 🙂 They have so much fun
    together, especially with guns.
image

  • Murderous white haired space elf mafia family. Very defunct, very engaging, I love them.

Alien
Nation

“A
flying saucer crashed in the Mojave Desert and its inhabitants turned
out to be alien slaves, bred to be super intelligent and strong, and
controllable by their Overseers. These Tenctonese, or “Newcomers”,
have been assimilated (sort of) into the population of Los Angeles.
One of them, George Francisco, is a police detective with a human
partner, Matthew Sikes. George and Matt fight crime together, while
learning to respect the other’s culture, and question his own. They
also fight prejudice, as personified by the Purists, and fear, in the
form of the unseen Overseers, who seek to regain control over their
slaves.” (IMBD)

Note:
There’s one movie from 1988 which predates this TV show and 5 TV
movies which take place after the events on the TV show.

My
favorites:

  • It’s
    structured like a buddy cop police procedural just with an alien as
    one part of the buddy duo.
image

  • canon interspecies relationship
image

Star
Gate, Farscape, Andromeda

I
was never heavily into these but I guess they belong on this list.

Honorable mention: Futurama

I
included only TV shows with aliens that have a more or less inhuman
appearance.
