Natasha West’s 200 Hours is the kind of romcom that I would happily lead the crowdfunding effort in order to see on the screen. Set in the UK, West’s motley crew of characters evokes The Breakfast Club’s dynamic of different walks of life all thrust together. Instead of high school detention, we’re bonding over communityRead More

A Cute Yuri Romance for Cat Lovers: My Cute Little Kitten Vol. 1 by Milk Morinaga
Amazon Affiliate Link | Bookshop.org Affiliate Link Six years ago (!!), I read Girl Friends by Milk Morinaga, a yuri manga series I’d heard recommended endlessly.

A Not-So-Magic Sapphic YA Romance: Improbable Magic for Cynical Witches by Kate Scelsa
Amazon Affiliate Link | Bookshop.org Affiliate Link Content warnings: homophobia (from antagonists), drug abuse (marijuana, alcohol) My experience with Improbable Magic for Cynical Witches stems from a core misunderstanding about what this book is. The summary explains that Eleanor doesn’t believe in magic, but her life will be changed by mysterious forces, that magic will arrive. It’sRead More
Susannah reviews Sorry, Bro by Taleen Voskuni
Amazon Affiliate Link | Bookshop.org Affiliate Link Taleen Voskuni’s promising sapphic debut packs more than your average meet-cute romance.

Nat reviews Tailor-Made by Yolanda Wallace
I went looking for one of Wallace’s newer books at the library and, to my delight, stumbled on a few of her older books, which is always a nice surprise when you find a new author you like.

With a curseRead More

Nat reviews Legends and Lattes by Travis Baldree
Amazon Affiliate Link | Bookshop.org Affiliate Link I must confess that I’d seen the cover of Legends and Lattes pop up a number of times and thought to myself, eh, too much of a high fantasy book for my tastes. Well, I should know better by now than write off a book based on genre,Read More
