Repost with one of your favorite books you’ve read this year!

#booksky 💙📚 #romtalk 📚👀 #romancelandia

"Di-Curious" by Erin Branch

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

June and Nova are in their twenties. June is a popular online streamer. Following the ending of a relationship, June has returned home to live in her parents' basement and recruited her old role-playing group to participate in sessions for a podcast.

Nova is Sapphic, non-binary, and socially anxious, preferring to keep to themselves.

This story is told around (sometimes during and in-character) weekly roleplaying sessions. We learn about events that led to June losing touch with her friends. We meet June's former fiancé when he comes to town to try and win her back. We learn the secret Nova can't bring themself to share with June. We see how attracted Nova and June are to one another and that June may not be as "straight" as she has always believed.

I loved seeing both leads learn more about themselves and each other. I love so-called "toaster oven" romances in which a heterosexual female realises she is lesbian/bisexual/pansexual/queer. June's journey is told with warmth and humour, with several deliciously spicy scenes along the way, and the geeky/roleplaying atmosphere felt just right.

I wholeheartedly recommend this book and look forward to reading more from Erin Branch. See less

Booker is living that good-smell wolf life once again.

(No instances of #champagne yet in our Torch and Key working draft--but we did find a #champ.)

#fridaykiss #romancelandia #romtalk

Experiencing the world as a wolf after too many days as a human often felt like a relief. Since settling in St. Louis—since Jo—his daily life had necessitated being in human form, navigating the human world. And of course it did. His mate was human, his business was security and construction. Paws and jaws weren’t conducive to paperwork or talking.
But oh, the relief of having these vivid avenues of information opening again, blooming fresh for his nose, eyes, and ears. His senses stayed enhanced in human form, but his wolf’s night vision and hearing were cranked to eleven. Even so, smell still ranked as the all-time sensory champ, turning his world into a kaleidoscopic bouquet of experience. Wolf Booker had learned focus, to traverse the chaos of scents, to pluck one from the multitudes and hold it, to glean details from its intensity and variations.
He’d missed this world and its nuance, and he sank into it now.

From a 5⭐ review:

Excellent writing, fascinating world building, engrossing story arc and absolutely wonderful characters. Complex and intelligent. Who could ask for anything more?!?
