Sticking It to Cancer One Book at a Time

“Committing it to ink makes it truer.”

The Undertaking of Hart and Mercy by Megan Bannen

by 7 Comments

This was a warm blanket of a macabre fantasy Romance about life, death, and making yourself actually live your life that I devoured in a day and have spent nearly a week searching my mind for how to review. There are a couple things that have held up the writing, one that it’s a weird book that is both very straightforward in its description but the minute you scratch at its surface it gets quite difficult to nail down, and second that this is a […]

I prayed this was not the doctor. “I’m the doctor!” he said, waving to the children.

Nothing to See Here by Kevin Wilson

by 4 Comments

I thought it over. Dollywood. “Islands in the Stream.” That body. She was the best thing that had ever come out of Tennessee. Jesus Christ, it wasn’t even close. ― Kevin Wilson, Nothing to See Here I’ll admit it. I chose this book because of its cover. The combination of the title plus a cartoon wrapped in flames immediately made me curious to see if the author shares the same dark sense of humor as I do. It turns out, they do. Nothing to see […]

Abi’s Accidental Grand Unified Theory of 2022 (kidding, sort of)

This Used To Be Easier by Katia Rose

by Leave a Comment

It feels kind of silly to be writing another review of a Katia Rose queer romance after I have already submitted my “Farewell for now Katia” review of the last one of them that I read, but I sort of forgot to review This Used To Be Easier so here we are. That is no knock against the book itself, a masc4femme lesbian romance about two girls who were best friends growing up, but were forced apart by circumstance and expectations. Meg is returning to […]

Astrid Parker’s No Good, Very Bad Case of Comphet

Astrid Parker Doesn't Fail by Ashley Herring Blake

by 3 Comments

I have been waiting for Astrid Parker Doesn’t Fail for months. Ever since I read Delilah Green Doesn’t Care back in June as the first in my spree of reading every sapphic romance I could get my hands on. I realise this isn’t as long as many people wait for books, I myself used to be someone waiting for Winds of Winter before losing interest some years back, but I’ve been impatient, and I’ve been a good girl and sometimes I get nice things, even […]

No one in their right mind would unironically refer to a sexy grown man as sötnos

Ship Wrecked by Olivia Dade

by Leave a Comment

Maria and Peter share one unforgettable night of passion together, which leads to some awkwardness after Maria leaves without so much as a note the next morning. They then discover that they’re about to become co-stars on the incredibly popular fantasy show Gods of the Gates. As their characters’ storylines involved being ship-wrecked on a small island by themselves, Maria and Peter, along with a small film crew are basically supposed to stay on location for years, and after they work through the awkwardness of […]
