When you squeeze in a proofread/copyedit with a quick turnaround for an author, and she sends you emails throughout the process with things like this sprinkled in. 🌈📚 #sapphfic #sapphic #readqueerallyear #okaysomaybeIdohaveapraisekink
This is not the oldest book I own, but it was my first with a personalized autograph. I was three when it was published (yes I realize I’m aging myself if anyone cares enough, and yes I met her, although I don’t remember it). I came by my love early and honestly. 🤟🏻🌈📚
More of a typical month, except that 80% were audio. It was a busy one, so a lot of my reading was on the go. All but one of my September books were #sapphfic reads. Now I’m looking forward to getting my hands on the manuscript for a new Xmas romance I’ll be proofreading this month! 🌈📚
😳 Transcription FAIL. 😂
Well I’ll be. Turns out people actually do win those Goodreads giveaways. I’ve read the first two Mischief & Matchmaking books by @eraofemma.bsky.social, and I’ve been really looking forward to this one. Super excited to have gotten it! #sapphfic 🌈📚
Favorite #sapphfic cozy romantasy series? Mine are Tomes & Tea (completed), Legends & Lattes (book 3 coming 11/11), and now I’m adding Mainely Magic by Sydney Wilder. The Lone Wolf Cafe released yesterday and it’s awesome, I can’t wait for book 2! You can check out my ARC review at the link. 🌈📚
Morgan's review of The Lone Wolf Café (Mainely Magic, #1)
5/5: I do so love cozy sapphic fantasy, and The Lone Wolf Cafe is a fabulous addition to the genre. It's sweet but there's still drama; we're in a cozy town setting with lovely people; there's burgeon...

I’m in a group for a local book club and there was a recent post asking for our favorite authors, so of course I had to throw in a few of my favorite #sapphfic writers. They pulled some of those authors for a bracket, and I’m happy to report that @leewinteroz.bsky.social eked out a win over SJM. 🤭🌈📚
Happy release day to @alysonrootauthor.bsky.social! I know I’ve said before that I don’t write reviews for books I’ve worked on unless I re-read it for enjoyment, but I will also say that if I didn’t love Molly and Carmen so damn much this would be my new favorite of Alyson’s books. #sapphfic 🌈📚
August was…well, it was. Had a lot of emotional ups and downs. Got a lot of books read but fell behind on posting reviews, so those are coming. Hopefully September is better. #sapphfic 🌈📚
And we love you! ❤️
I…think that’s an understatement. This whole week, month even, has been stressful, but today was the worst. I’m going to go lose myself in some books and not think about life and death or the weight of the world and the way of things.
Is it out? Yes! Did I abandon the book I was listening to so I could start it? Also yes! Do I regret it? Not a whit. Three chapters in and I already know I’m going to love it as much as the rest of the series. @rebeccathorne.bsky.social is awesome, and Jessica Threet’s narration is fab. #sapphfic 🌈📚
Yes! We should be besties!
Got a series you particularly love? I adore Tomes & Tea by @rebeccathorne.bsky.social, and I’m counting down the days until book 4 is released! One week from today I’ll be diving in to the audiobook while waiting for my autographed paperback to arrive. #sapphfic 🌈📚
I got book mail from @gemasterswrites.bsky.social! It’s beautiful! It’s fabulous! 5 stars! Go read it! Well, after you check the trigger warnings. 😉 #sapphfic 🌈📚
Oops, guess I kinda got carried away. Pretty sure July was my highest monthly book count…well…ever—although I suppose the page count was a little lower than usual, too. 🤷🏻‍♀️ #sapphfic 🌈📚
Do you like @alysonrootauthor.bsky.social? Have you read her French Connection series? Playing Her Heart is a novella about Emilie’s drummer, Jess. I didn’t write a review (I don’t review books I work on unless I re-read), but I loved it! It’s worth full price, but on sale through 8/1. #sapphfic 🌈📚
It’s almost time, y’all! Let the Mask Fall by @gemasterswrites.bsky.social will be out in the wild tomorrow! Dark sapphic romance that’s also somehow…cozy? Yes. You can check out my review on Goodreads: www.goodreads.com/review/show/... #sapphfic 🌈📚
Not feeling particularly festive at the moment. It was a good day to stay home and lose myself in proofreading…on the couch with my kitties, like a good lesbian. #sapphfic 🌈📚
I can tell how busy I was in June from the ratio of audio to digital. They’re usually pretty even, but I was running around so much it was a very audio-heavy month. #sapphfic 🌈📚
Day 30: Coming Home by @propertyofkj.bsky.social. Melbourne girl-next-door meets celebrity single mom when she’s hired to teach the actress’s daughter. They slowly fall for each other, and I fell for them. I laughed, I cried, I had all the feels. I’ve heard the audiobook is great, too. #sapphfic 🌈📚
Day 29: Hotel Queens by @leewinteroz.bsky.social. I love all of Lee’s books, and one of the things she’s known for is ice queens. This is one of her best, and damn her ice queen and firebrand are fabulously steamy, with wonderful chemistry, competition, and a bit of mystery. #sapphfic 🌈📚
Day 28: Honey in the Marrow by @emilyraywaters.bsky.social. Stella, 51 and former deputy DA, recently lost her husband. She comes into her own with the help of her niece Stella, and unexpected support from Elizabeth, a detective she used to work with. One of my favorite reads last year. #sapphfic 🌈📚
Day 27: Consecrated Ground by @virginiablack.bsky.social. In a world teeming with vampires, war witch Joan returns home following her father’s death. Flawless writing, and beautiful transitions between slow, sensual moments and heart pounding action. The sequel Incendiant just released! #sapphfic 🌈📚
Day 26: I Keep My Exoskeletons to Myself by @mcrane12.bsky.social. Yes they’ve got a brand new book out, which is excellent, but there’s something about this one that lives in my brain. It’s a dystopian story about survival against Big Brother, but it’s also a deep examination of grief. #sapphfic 🌈📚
