I just completed my first lgbtq bingo of the year! @Kenyazero #LGBTQBookBingo from the top down: 📖Topping the Alpha (this is horrible, don‘t waste your time) 📖 the Girl From the Sea 📖Halo 📖Bloom 📖Lose You to Find Me
Lovely Jade helped me cook breakfast and read SOMETHING SPECTACULAR, which is delightful so far. I do love a book that mixes lots of funny bits with lots of deeper bits.
I should‘ve taken a picture of my breakfast, too. It was beautiful: a fried egg atop cubed hashbrowns strewn with crumbled thick bacon, cheese, and a generous, artful drizzle of sriracha mayonnaise. Alas, it has now left this world, soon to return in a less appealing form.
Meant to post this last week, but I'm just 5 books away from filling out the #lgbtqbookbingo. I think I'll manage at least 2 more spots this month.

pick4/5
This was a very fun read. I hadn't read Something Fabulous, but I still enjoyed this book. It's a very spicy, regency reimaging full of fantastic LGBTQ+ characters. Peggy literally faints the first time she sees Orfeo perform, but they both have to figure out how to live their own lives and be together.

pickI always enjoy the way Alexis Hall writes, so enjoyed this, but it felt a bit all over the place, with a lot of secondary characters & a lack of balance in the development of the 2 MCs. I was expecting an over the top regency romp like Something Fabulous, but apart from one delightfully ridiculous poetry reading scene, it was closer in tone to the more angsty A Lady For A Duke. I wish he‘d slow down his writing pace & give more time to each book.
Look what released!
