Book reviews and recommendations
Sometime in January I did a Top Ten Tuesday on “Queer Books I Want to Read in 2023”. I planned on it being a mix of backlist and new releases, but the 2023 releases completely took over, so I’ve been keeping this topic (all the ones I missed then) in my back pocket.
Continue reading “Top Ten Backlist Queer Books I Want to Read in 2023”There are so many great books coming out this spring! So much so, I’ve managed to fill the entire ten with purely new releases I’m really excited for between the start of March and the end of May. I’ve no idea how many I might be able to squeeze in, but I hope as many as possible.
Continue reading “Top Ten Books on My Spring 2023 To-Read List”I really love hearing people talk about their hobbies and things they’re passionate about. These are all characters with creative interests (writing, baking, photography etc) I’d be happy to sit down for a conversation with.
Let me know what you think!

However, in the past couple of years I’ve read so many good stories in the genre, it’s one I’ll actively seek out. And there’s so much variety!

I’m sure I’m going to spend all of today reading other peoples lists and thinking — Duh! How’d I forget her? — but these are the ten books with the most memorable, most enjoyable heroines I can think of.
Continue reading “Top Ten Favorite Heroines”This wasn’t going to be a specifically 2023 releases post, just generally queer books I’ve been meaning to get to, but it turns out there’s more than enough coming out soon so it’s sort of turned out that way. The backlist books might need to get their own post the next time a freebie pops up.
Continue reading “Top Ten Queer Books I Want to Read in 2023”Apologises if I’ve balleds up and any of these aren’t actually debuts. I’ve checked, but I’ve likely messed at least one up. Either way, these are ten 2023 books by (at the very least) new-to-me authors which I’m really excited by.
Continue reading “Top Ten 2023 Debut Books I’m Excited About”For todays freebie prompt, I’m stealing an idea I saw Lydia Schoch use way back in June. Basically, instead of making my own recommendations todays, I’ll share some of the tropes or topics I really enjoy reading about, and hope that you’ve got some great suggestions to add to my TBR.
Continue reading “Top Ten Tuesday: Rec Me Books!”I didn’t think I’d have as many as ten goals, to be honest, but one I started thinking about it I was able to break these down pretty quickly.
Are you making goals? What are they? Do we have any in common, or any polar opposites?
