Soft on Soft
Soft on Soft | Mina Waheed
6 posts | 2 read | 2 to read
Contemporary romance where one homebody and one extrovert make one hell of a love story.June Bana might post nearly daily makeup looks that gain thousands of likes but Real Life June has built a wall behind which she exists with her two cats.But with messy feelings getting in a way of an early hermit life, June begins to realize that she wants more. She wants model/actress, Sunshine Reincarnated Selena Clarke. It doesn't hurt that Selena is amazing with cats and quiets down June's anxiety to bearable levels.June is given the choice of facing her anxieties about relationships to gain not only a girlfriend but also a better understanding of how far she'd go for love. But would she take it? Would she leave her comfort zone for something softer?Soft on Soft is a character-driven without an intense plot or conflict! For fans of something low on the angst and high on the fluff.Content warning for a discussion of a passed-away parent in chapter 2, a depiction of a panic attack in chapter 8, mention of anti-ace language used against LI in the past, and usage of gendered slur "bitch" not in a menacing manner.

This soft, low-angst f/f romance features a demisexual and pansexual woman in an almost insta-love relationship. I loved that both of the main characters are unabashedly fat women of color. Sadly the story was a bit of a slog for me. And there are a lot of small typos and errors since it's a self-published book, which didn't particularly bother me under the circumstances but might get to others. A low pick for me.

Late in this weekend‘s prompts, but this book is high on my TBR and has pansexual rep. From what I can tell there is also polysexual rep but if you have more recommendations, drop them in the comments below! #pride #pride2022 #pansexual #polysexual

Makes my Sapphic heart sad to rate an F/F romance so low. It‘s definitely cute & I love the rep here for queer WOC, fat girls, demisexuality, etc. Also liked how good Selena was about June‘s anxiety. But good Lord. There‘s an editor mentioned on the copyright page but they didn‘t do anything?? So many errors of punctuation, sentence structure, word choice. As a former editor it was so distracting. And no real characterization either. Alas. 2/5 ⭐️
