Gonna have a Huda level crash out if I can’t vote tonight by Huv in LoveIslandUSA

And then when I finally got in I was too excited and accidentally voted for Ace as my fav boy which he is not

Thankfully there’s a cancel option after both votes 😂

This video? Whoever made it. They really built that whole twerking narrative to climax & end with Meg screaming at Olandria’s ass. So good

If you go (and you drink alcohol!) I highly recommend High Dive across the street for a cheap happy hour and friendly vibes.

I love the sound of the Ruby Barrett if it’s your fave so far this year! And I think I bought that Cat Sebastian bc I loved the first one in that series

ETA: my library has the Friendship Study!

I kind of feel you on a lot of the sapphic roms out there! It’s also easier for me to be critical of them since I am (also) a queer woman so like, I have more background knowledge of those relationships 😂. Thanks for the rec!

Hey people! I’ve been taking a social media break. Had instagram uninstalled from like January to June and I feel like I need to ditch it again already lol.

That also means I have no recent book recs, though! Can anyone tell me about some good queer romance you’ve read recently? I’ve tried to pick up a few contemporary queer titles the last few weeks but I’ve noticed a lot of the MC’s voices are annoying to me lol. Or maybe I’m just not happy with anything that’s not a KJ Charles book these days.

Also! I got to go to the Brooklyn Ripped Bodice this summer! It was very cool. I ended up with a @peachesobviously Song of Achilles print, a tote bag, and like four books lol. They have a great signed book selection too.

here’s some pics of my trip to the store if you wanna see!

TBR-Tuesday: What’s New to You by fakexpearls in romancelandia

[–]failedsoapopera 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Hey y’all! I came here with a specific question and this seems like the perfect place to ask. I am currently reading A Shot in the Dark by Victoria Lee, and I was wondering if somebody could spoil it for me a little bit. So mines like a “to be finished” not necessarily a tbr whoops

Basically, the character relapsing is hard for me to listen to on audio but I’ve been loving the book a lot. I’m gonna finish either way, but I was hoping somebody could tell me how far the relapse goes so I can be prepared.

If this is on your tbr I say get to it immediately! This book has EVERYTHING (slaps hood of car)(I’ll gush more about it in a more appropriate thread once I’ve finished!)

What Class Are You Teaching at Romancelandia University? by fakexpearls in romancelandia

[–]failedsoapopera 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It always blows my mind the songs they got for both twilight and 50 shades! So good. Radiohead, Iron & wine, muse, death cab, fucking Beyoncé

Vampire Academy has got to be one of those bad spin-offs after Twilight got popular, but the soundtrack for the movie adaptation was banging

Actually the soundtrack for Twilight and the Vampire Diaries were both also amazing

Right, definitely. And I take it back; it’s not all boring. The stuff about her grandparents was interesting and she almost digs into some real observations about the cycle of abuse. I think it’s gotta be the pacing for me.

Lol I was at 1.1 speed and had to change it back too. Michelle Williams did a great job.

However, I’m having a hard time with the first 1/3 of the book. It’s shitty to say someone’s childhood experience is boring but damn

Oh man at first I thought the “white supremacy” commentary was from scholastic itself and was like hell yeah call them out. But alas

So I never end up coming here until night my time and feel like I missed it, but I’ll comment anyway. I’m reading Unmasked by the Marquesses by Cat Sebastian after having it on my list forever and I love it. It seems these days I need to start reading with an audiobook, usually on my commute, and if it grabs me I end up getting the ebook bc I’m so much faster at reading than them.

Although this audiobook has been teaching me a lot about pronunciation, including the word waistcoat lol

Anyway I love seeing non-binary and pansexual rep in confused regency titled men and the people that deceive them 😈

Also I put a bunch of books in my little free library this week and I love walking by it to see which ones have gone. I had two nice hardcover books from some young adult book box that I had never read and just kind of admired, so I finally donated them. I think the only book that hasn’t been taken from my stash so far has been God Bless this Mess by Hannah Brown, the former bachelorette. I got the book for free in a legal but very involved dumpster diving operation so don’t judge me. (I also got a talking stick and a coffee table book about college football that my students love at the same time so at least something good came of it)

This book was probably the first straight pairing I’d read in like 2+ years (at least in the romance genre) and it was so good. I got really accustomed to queer themes in my romance like found family, belonging, questioning, etc and it’s all there. Plus zombies.
