The book "A Marvellous Light" by Freya Marske standing next to a pot of daffodils, hyacinths, and tulips.

Elegantly written Edwardian fantasy, murder mystery, gay romance

A Marvellous Light by Freya Marske

March 29, 2022 by Dome'Loki 1 Comment

First of all, Thank you, again, llamareadbooks for gifting me this book in the Cannonball Book Exchange!  A book that combines several genres I enjoy was almost guaranteed to be a hit but it is the beautiful writing that makes this such a wonderful read. You look like a Turner painting and I want to learn your textures with my fingertips.  You are the most fascinating thing in this beautiful house.  I’d like to introduce my fist to whoever taught you to stop talking about […]

Weirdos, teenagers, degenerates, and women

Ship It by Britta Lundin

March 23, 2022 by carmelpie 2 Comments

“Real writing” is done by serious people, whereas fanfiction is written by weirdos, teenagers, degenerates, and women.” This is a comics convention. When did this industry start caring about what fourteen-year-old girls like? Have you ever found a book that feels as if it was written just for you? From the first two chapters, I was in love with this book. Small town girl – Check. Self-identified outcast – Check. Obsessed over a band or a show or a movie to the point of writing […]

Sweet Queer Supernatural Romance

Match With the Demon by Chace Verity

January 30, 2022 by GentleRain 2 Comments

I saw Emmalita’s positive review of this and decided to pick it up — I’d never read anything by Chace Verity and it’s been a while since I read any romance outside of fanfic, so this was a bit of a random read. But it was very sweet and cozy, which is the type of book I was in the mood for. I breezed through it and enjoyed it. Match With the Demon follows Harrison, a single dad whose son Justin just left for college. Harrison […]

The book, "Red, White & Royal Blue" by Casey McQuiston standing behind a small American flag and a white notecard with an elaborate crown on it.

Sexy, gay version of an American falling in love with a British royal

Red, White & Royal Blue by Casey McQuiston

January 12, 2022 by Dome'Loki 1 Comment

Red, White & Royal Blue has been on my to read list for a while as Cannonballers have steadily given it positive praise.  Happy to report it did not disappoint.  I do enjoy an enemies to lovers story and McQuiston delivers with Alex Claremont Diaz, son of the first female President of the United States, and Henry, Prince of Wales.  Set in a fictional 2020 (that I would very much like to trade for our own 2020), Alex is in his final year of college, […]

The book "Winter's Orbit" by Everina Maxwell stands next to a wooden snowman decoration.

“Well someone has to marry him, said the Emperor.” Part space opera, mystery, and romance, all of it captivating.

Winter's Orbit by Everina Maxwell

December 14, 2021 by Dome'Loki 10 Comments

Winter’s Orbit came on to my radar through Cannonballers and then I noticed my independent bookstore featuring it as a staff pick for Pride month.  It went on my book wish list and I got it for my birthday! In the far distant future there are multiple galactic civilizations and they are all connected through ‘the link network’ governed by the Resolution.  Trade happens through the link and having the Resolution in place means that no invading force can use the link to attack another […]

Rolling with my homies

How to Vex a Vampire by Alice Winters

May 1, 2020 by katie71483 1 Comment

  How to Vex a Vampire by Alice Winters reads like a cross between a script for Will & Grace and an early Laurell K. Hamilton novel, with a side of True Blood thrown in for good measure. Honestly, I can’t decide if I love it or hate it. Maybe a bit of both. Finnigan is an enormous flirt who is apparently a wee little man blessed with the capability to make just about anyone like him. He’s also a human homicide cop who has […]
