#BookBracket2025 for August was easy! The tagged historical queer romance was by far by favourite in an otherwise meh reading month. If you like your historical romances with real, interesting historical details and context, with bonus feminist and trans characters, A Shore Thing is for you!
Martyr! was an easy win against the two it came up against though. Can't beat how beautiful the writing is.
pickA bright queer Victorian romance featuring bicycles, botany, redemption all over the place, and hilarious side characters. I loved this book! It is always fun finding a book that I can see my own relationship reflected in. I‘m also a sucker for enemies to lovers and redemption of antagonist characters. This book also has some really well done love scenes. #LGBTQIA #VictorianRomance #Botany #Bikes
pick4.6⭐️ I love this book more than I thought I would. The chemistry between the MMC and the FMC was amazing, and the mouth on the MMC was impeccable. Always love a good Fay romance, but you throw on a little vampire with it, I‘m totally on board. Looking forward to the next book.
I purchased a #BlindDateWithABook and this was my selection!
I foresee a Bridgerton spinoff series with the Smythe-Smiths!
pick⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
“Tomb of the Sun King” was a fun addition to the “Raiders of the Arcana” series. I enjoyed the characters (Neil was annoying at first but his ongoing character development was promising), and there was plenty of adventure to be found in these pages. I look forward to when the next book comes out in November!

pickFinished my #BookSpin book this afternoon with my furry reading buddies.
(Admittedly chores are only half done, but progressing… I have tomorrow as it is a bank holiday 😂)
It was a pretty good mystery, with some twists. The characters were interesting and the short history behind it interesting too!
