pickThis was a super fun queer historical mystery featuring a bi woman protagonist! Set in late 1940s New York, the story follows an especially personal case for Will, as the person accused of murder is her boss and lead detective! Lots of interesting twists and turns, well-drawn characters, and nuanced representation of disability and queerness. Great audiobook narration too. I'll definitely be checking out more of this series! #Bisexual
pickAmazing, insightful writing about three adults whose erotic adolescent bond follows them into their thirties. Set in Cuernavaca, Mexico and translated from Spanish. Very weird, slow-paced, and melancholy, about "what happens when the built-up dread of our world on fire begins to seep into the soul". Nuanced bisexual men representation! #Bisexual #BisexualBooks
It's here at last!!!!
Pre-ordered and had to wait for ages, it was published in July.
It's the "Now" time of #JaneAustenThenAndNow and I'm challenging myself to tackle a whole pile of Emma adaptations and retellings! I'm hitting more movie and TV versions than ever, as it's been years since I've seen most of them, and I threw some new-to-me titles on this list as well. What are you taking on this month, #PemberLittens?

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️💫
Premise: Two university students make a surprising connection in an online gaming community.
Review: This is a charming new-adult queer romance. Not only does it describe first love in adorably realistic detail, but it also deals with some interesting social and parasocial issues that I haven‘t seen addressed in other romances. ⬇️
pickWhile there are a couple of dark moments, for the most part, this is a lovely little romp, perfect for the Great British Bakeoff fan. I did find it difficult to reconcile how Alain's character shifted but maybe that's just how dudes are :P

so-soMmmm I thought this was YA, since the MC is 16, but…maybe like older YA?? It was alright. The story felt a little half-baked, and it was a lot of sitting around and waiting for things to happen. Also, how in this small town has no one noticed a BASEMENT full of goths going missing???

pickA page-turning mystery about five queer characters (plus token straight guy) taking part in a reality TV show. Often quite funny, it's sort of part of the reality TV genre but also laughing at it. Lots of #bisexual chaos! Feminist critique of "nice guys" is spot on as is interrogation of the controlling abusive guy who claims to just be setting boundaries. They are all terrible people, but which one killed the guy who died in the last episode?
The #bisexual choas in this reality TV crime thriller is delightfully ridiculous #QueerBooks
