Fantastic second book!

[review contains references and spoilers for Bone Shard Daughter, book one of The Drowning Empire trilogy] After defeating her father, Lin hoped taking over as emperor would be a smooth transition, but no one knows who she is and don’t trust the Sukai family after the terrors of tithing festivals and constructs.

Cute Sapphic Cheerleader-Quarterback YA!

Home Field Advantage by Dahlia Adler

June 3, 2022 by LB Leave a Comment

This is a delight, which I knew it would be after loving Dahlia Adler’s Cool for the Summer last year. Amber has dreams of becoming cheer captain and being able to get a scholarship so she can go to college away from Atherton and be able to be out and openly date girls. But while she’s still in high school, she and her best friend Miguel are each other’s beard, especially after Miguel had been blackmailed, to make sure if the blackmailer tried to out […]

Relatable Messy Friendship and Romance YA

Just Your Local Bisexual Disaster by Andrea Mosqueda

May 20, 2022 by LB 2 Comments

This book perfectly speaks to messy teenage romance and feelings, and navigating friendship and romance, especially when the person you think you like is also your best friend. Maggie is such a fantastic protagonist, and I loved being a part of her journey of figuring out who she likes and wants to take to her sister’s Quince. Maggie’s younger sister is getting ready for her quinceñera and as one of her damas, Maggie needs to figure out who she wants to take as her date. […]

Road Trip Romance

No Rings Attached by Rachel Lacey

May 6, 2022 by Pooja Leave a Comment

Lia is on the hunt for a fake girlfriend to go to her brother’s wedding with her, and her best friend Rosie offers up her childhood friend Grace as an option. Sparks fly when the two meet, but Grace has a complicated past and is wary of relationships. This is the second book in the series, but reads perfectly well as a stand-alone. Though the story starts off with the fake-dating trope, things quickly heat up between the couple until they enter a complicated relationship […]

She Gets the Girl

“Some things belong so much they could never break”

She Gets the Girl by Rachael Lippincott and Alyson Derrick

April 16, 2022 by llamareadsbooks Leave a Comment

When I saw this was a sapphic enemies-to-friends-to-lovers, I jumped at the chance to read this book. And, even better, it’s set in Pittsburgh! And even more better, this is actually written by a married writing team, which is pretty darn cute. Starting college is the perfect chance to reinvent yourself, or at least that’s what Molly and Alex hope. After a bad start at a party, Alex realizes Molly is exactly what she needs. She’ll create a five step plan for Molly to get […]

The Devil Wears Tartan book cover

Love In Plaid

The Devil Wears Tartan by Katia Rose

April 10, 2022 by Sofi Keren 4 Comments

TikTok got me on this one. I found myself watching a video where the author promoted her new romance novel where two women from rival highland dance schools hate each other and then…really don’t. I ordered it immediately. It was delightful. Moira is still reeling from a breakup that happened some time ago where her ex-girlfriend called her boring, something she really took to heart. All she really wants is to keep teaching at her family’s dance school, but she feels like she’s supposed to […]
