Finished "Lavender House" by Lev AC Rosen. A classically written mystery-noir with a cast of queer characters. This was fun! I especially liked Andy's mental journey in finding his life's purpose as he solves the murder. 5 out of 5 ⭐️. 📚💙 📚🌈 #booksky #lgbtqbooks

Finished "Aliens Snared My Heart" by Hawke Oakley. Exactly as advertised! Reptilian alien with featherboa tentacles with a human man..& mpreg! Not much plot but like a puddle, there was enough there to splash in & have fun! 4 out of 5 ⭐️. 📚💙 📚🌈 📚🌶 #booksky #queerbooksky #mmromance #alienromance

Finished "Prince and Assassin" by Tavia Lark. This book made me swoon! The conversations between Juilen & Whisper made me giddy. The side characters were a great source of comedy & the spice was emotionally well done! 5 out of 5 ⭐️. 📚💙 📚🌈 📚🌶 #booksky #romancebooks #lgbtqbooks

Finished "Trying to Kill the Sun" by T.F Author. I love the premise of this queer superhero romance. I adored Noah's & Anatoly's relationship but I do feel the story needed more time in editing bc a lot of the dialogue got repetitive in the 2nd half. 3.5 out of 5 ⭐️. 📚💙 📚🌈 #booksky #queerbooksky

I just pointed out something on TT & explained that it can easily be seen as a dog whistle if you are careless about it. The worst yet funniest thing is the amount of people who crawl out of the woodwork who prove to you that it really IS a dog whistle. smh

Finished "Redemption" by Kenya Wright. I liked it. Ebony & her strength to fight for her family carried the story for me. Yoshiro became the perfect support for her. My only nitpick is that there were some unnecessary dream sequences. Check TWs. 4 out of 5 ⭐️. 📚💙 #booksky #blackbooksky

Finished "Full Speed To A Crash Landing" by Beth Revis. My first heist story in a long time & this audiobook was fun! Ada's flirty but deceptive personality was the driving force of the story. Her opinionated observations made the worldbuliding feel very organic. 5 out of 5 ⭐️. 💙📚 #booksky

Finished "Spin The Dawn" by Elizabeth Lim. I loved the competition & treasure hunting aspect in this YA fantasy. Felt Maia's decisions near the end were extremely frustrating but then again it sets up for book 2 & teens be teens😂! 4 out of 5 ⭐️. 📚💙 #booksky

Finished "Trusting Cade" by Luna David. This was just meh. I liked Braden a lot & his characterization but Cade was VERY boring for me. Cade felt a bit TOO perfect. A lot of his dialogue felt like a PSA than actual conversations. 2.5 out of 5 stars ⭐️. 📚💙 #booksky #romancebook

I'm proud of myself today. I was able to solve a car problem all on my own. Added freon to my car to fix the air conditioning. Go me for doing independent adult things! 😆

Finished "Eric Linnaeus - The Witch's Curse" by Kikito Lynn. I love this book SO much! If you love paranormal/supernatural TV shows akin to 2000-2010s, this reads as one. It is chef's kiss! It felt like a TV season of events but it is only the beginning! 5 out of 5 ⭐️! 💙📚 #booksky

Due to unscientific anecdotal evidence over the years, I am officially under the belief that anyone who includes "morningstar" in their username is doomed to be incredibly wrong in every online discussion. (Free yourself from the curse if that is you! Change your name!)

Another finished book with a beautiful cover! "Blood Scion" by Deborah Falaye has detailed worldbuliding & did a good job showcasing the brutality of the Lucis regime. I love the FMC however I found most of male characters kinda flat in personality. Still 4 out of 5 ⭐️. 📚💙 #booksky #blackbooksky

Why? WHY...am I hearing on Tiktok that some people are genuinely asking for the age of consent to be raised to 25??? This is a horrific idea on multiple levels. This shouldn't be a discussion at all! Scary AF!

Just finished a book. Not going to name it since I'm about to be shitty about it: If you're going to write a dark romance, you have to let the story SIT in the darkness for a bit. Just info-dumping & then characters quickly dismissing it with sunny acceptance 5 pages later is NOT DARK. 📚💙 #booksky

One thing I like about a plush toy as my Tiktok avatar is that it stops a lot of implusive decisions. I have to wait until after my 8 hour shift to make & post a "good idea" for a video. For 98% of the time, the audacity is gone & the video isn't made. This is a good thing.

Just finished "Heavenly Tyrant" by Xiran Jay Zhao. So..in this sequel, Zetian realizes developing a new govt sucks and the men in her life doesn't make it easier! Prepare to annotate a lot because this adds a whole bunch of new lore to digest. 5 out of 5 ⭐️. 💙📚 #booksky

I understand Crunchyroll's Anime Awards dont really matter..but I really REALLY dont want Solo Leveling to win "Anime of the Year". Simply bc all the other nominees felt like they were written by ppl who touched grass before. Solo Leveling's story however..no. Just no. Still nice animation but no.

Read the last 2 books in the Ashley N Rostek's "WITSEC" series. While I'm happy that all 4 love interests were given their time to shine with worthwhile spicy scenes, I didn't appreciate how cartoonishly silly the villains got near the end. For that, 3.5 out of 5 ⭐️. 🌶📚 📚💙 #booksky

Forgot to mention this but I finished "The Guardian Herd" series by Jennifer Lynn Alvarez. Was the worldbuliding in these books all over the place? Yes. Did I still enjoy them? Also yes bc unhinged middle grade books are awesome! Overall 4 out of 5 ⭐️. Check TWs for graphic injuries. 📚💙 #booksky

Just finished "Smoke" by Aja. This was a nice crime thriller romance & I liked that female MC was in her 40s. I understand this is part of a series but I wish the book was much longer to better establish the side characters. Look up TWs before reading. 4 out of 5 ⭐️. 💙📚 #booksky #blackbooksky

Random thought: Not enough people appreciates Erythrosuchus. It is a reptile from the Triassic period & it looks like an adorable Trex puppy! I want merch of it but I can't find any!

Just finished "Don't Fight It" by Samantha Cole. This was a spicy menage romance set in small town Kansas. Dynamic between Paige, Tucker, & Shane was well done. However I wasn't a fan of the final conflict. It felt a bit too over-the-top to happen in a small town setting. 4 out of 5 ⭐️. 📚💙 #booksky

Currently reading "Phoenix and Giovanni" by Rayona Lovely Wilson for the #transrightsreadathon. So far very powerful read and I'm mad at all the adult characters in this book. Stop neglecting poor Phoenix! 💙📚 #booksky
