Leftcoastzen I thought it was excellent & powerful! 1d

GingerAntics @Leftcoastzen oh my god the emotional rollercoaster!!! He is such a story teller, and his family is a good model for everyone! More families need to be like this one. … and oh my god the teacher who said “if I was alive then I‘d probably have slaves, too.” WTLF?! 1d

A Sky Beyond the Storm | Sabaa Tahir

A thick layer of cloud rests atop the eastern horizon, and the sky pales, the deep orange glow of an ember breathed into life. High above, the stars whisper their goodbyes and fade into the depthless blue dome of the firmament.

I Am Spock | Leonard Nimoy

I‘m feeling very much led in this direction this afternoon. I got quite a laugh out of the mental image of Spock as midwife by @Bookwomble . I don‘t think I‘ll be getting that out of my head anytime soon. Also, I have never been more excited for a book read by the author… sorry Wil.

The Falling in Love Montage | Ciara Smyth

I take a moment to think about what it means to me so that the words come out right.
“History is who we are,” I say finally. “The past shapes us. Even the parts you can‘t remember.”

The Earl Meets His Match | T. J. Alexander

#NetGalley #ARC #audiobook

I liked the story of how Lord Christopher Eden is not only forced out into society to find a wife. In order to secure a wife Christopher needs a valet. But as much as Mister James Harding might be helping Christopher, he's also a huge distraction.

I enjoyed having Christopher's POV only. This way I found out about James' thoughts and feelings alongside Christopher and that made the slow burn romance much sweeter.

Simple Men (First Edition, First) | Eric Arvin

so-so

This was uncomfortably heteronormative in places with casual homophobia and odd sexism to go with it. It made parts of the story very awkward. I couldn‘t help pulling for both couples by the end, but I almost bailed. Luckily it was a quick read. I think the problem is that SO much has changed since 2011 in how we talk about gender, identity, etc., and this just has not aged well.
