The Weavers of Alamaxa picks up right where the previous book, The Daughters of Izdihar, left off—on a giant cliffhanger, so if you’re wary of spoilers for book one, read no further! Daughters ended with Nehal abducted and Giorgina an escaped prisoner. The Daughters of Izdihar have been disbanded by the corrupt government, and weavers,Read More
An Instant Classic of Sapphic Historical Fiction: The Safekeep by Yael van der Wouden
Admittedly, I am extremely late to the game when it comes to Yael van der Wouden’s 2024 debut novel The Safekeep (Simon & Schuster); however, I now regret not picking this one up sooner. The Safekeep has the lasting impact of an instant classic alongside the gripping and propulsive plot of any good story. Set in 1961 inRead More

After a month of reading nothing but books that were outside my comfort genres and were beginning to feel too real and too depressing, I decided it was time to reset my brain with a light fluffy romance.

A Steamy Friends-to-Lovers Beach Read: My Best Friend’s Honeymoon by Meryl Wilsner Review
This summer, I really fell in love with reading by the water. I did some beach reading, but mostly, I just packed a bottle of water and a snack, walked myself down to the waterway, found a bench, and cracked open a book. It’s so peaceful. And between the cover and setting of My BestRead More
Living Your Queer Adolescence at 35 Years Old: Every Step She Takes by Alison Cochrun Review
I liked Alison Cochrun’s Here We Go Again is one of my favourite romance novels, so I was excited to pick up her newest. This one has a very romcom premise: when Sadie thinks the plane she is on is about to crash, she confesses to her seatmate that she thinks she’s a lesbian. MalRead More

In Cinder House, the titular Ella isRead More
A Second Chance Romance Worth All the Barbs: Quiver by Rachel Spangler Review
One reason I love second chance romances is the inherent drama in the set up. You’ve got two characters who have to figure out how to get over the issues that tore them apart in the first place to find their happily ever after together. Quiver by Rachel Spangler is a second chance romance thatRead More
