This story was quick and I liked the way it resolved. There was one major worldbuilding aspect which I enjoyed, but also kept having questions about it - not enough to break me out of the world, exactly, but enough that I hope there's a novel that explores more of the fact there's no men in this world.

Thanks to Tordotcom Books for the free advance copy of this book.
- HIGH TIMES IN THE LOW PARLIAMENT is a strange, funny little novella that I adored. It's such a unique world where humans and fairies are at odds yet working together, leading to both great tension and hilarity.
- The parallels of the book's deadlocked Parliament to our own real life struggles with Congress are a bit depressing, but watching Lana and her compatriots figure it out was thrilling.
- Did I mention this is a world of entirely women? No men, everyone is sapphic!
