I don't think there was anything in particular I didn't love about this book. The characters are absolutely endearing and have a way of making you smile with their cute little quirks. I also really enjoyed seeing Viv open up and forge friendships with others who were generally known to be disliked, or awkward...
Halfway through #LegendsandLattes by #TravisBaldree and I am pleasantly surprised how much I enjoy it! Haven't even gotten to the romance yet and the story alone has completely pulled me in and the characters are so endearing 🥰. I think I'm slowly starting to expand on the genres I enjoy. I'm excited to have found another author I think I'll easily return to again and again.
The recommended reading list for the first category of the Sapphic Book Bingo 2024 is now up on my website, and it's a special one: must-read sapphic books.
For this category, I had 6,000+ readers vote on their favorite sapphic book and compiled a list of the top 50 most-popular books.
5-5: The cover of Hell Followed With Us by Andrew Joseph White kept intriguing me, even if annotation didn't. Figured reading more of LGBT can only be a plus anyway, I decided to pick it up just for the cover, and I can't tell you how happy I am for this decision.
Of Love and Libraries is a sweet second chance romcom which smells like books, cinnamon and apple cider. It is the story of two women who reconnect after decades.
Queer Buffy the Vampire Slayer meets Filipino folklore in this horror comedy about a high school stage manager who accidentally sells her soul to a demon.
A beautiful love story between two men is just the beginning of this profound novel. In fact, it is a historical novel set in 1950s Melbourne. Rather than telling us the story of the two protagonists, Jay Carmichael seeks to shed light on the lives of gay men in a decade when persecution, illegality and the medicalisation of homosexuality drove homosexuals to underground or to jail. In addition, as one of the characters is of native Australian descent, racism and racial segregation are also addressed.
It is a work of an extraordinary and simple beauty.
Not to be missed. #gaynovels#gaynovel#queer#queerbooks#lgbtbooks#historicalnovel#historicalnovels#gayhistoricalnovel#euleiolgbt#marlo
