I know I’m behind the trend in this one.
Tracy Deonn, you’re incredible and I cannot wait to read the rest!

The way she intertwines grief/loss, racial and generational trauma, what it is to be a woman in a man’s world…finding oneself.
Incredible!
Go read it !!!

Great story about Mexican culture, Mariachi culture, queer identity/pride and grief/loss.

This book gave me a lot of feels!

Rey’s trans identity is done beautifully and I was so proud of him!

Go read this book!

Yea just go read Amy Spalding!
You won’t regret it.

This is an excellent sapphic series and I’m obsessed!
March 15, 2025 at 12:56 PM
This was a well done book. Don’t let the 3 stars deter you.
It just annoyed me that the main character became a damsel the moment she met the main male character.
Also not a fan of pregnancy tropes.

But well done on the crime/mystery aspect!

I enjoyed the insight to her experience and perspective!

My Big Fat Fake Marriage
By Charlotte Stein
Narrated by Imogen Wilde

This book was eh. Straightforward fake dating scenario romance. Great spice scenes!

I felt his cinnamon roll qualities were a bit too heavily pushed onto the reader.

A fun lighthearted read overall.

These Heathens

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/5

I was hooked on Doris’s story. I loved how the author intertwined so many big names of the Civil Rights movement into this story.
