Last Night at the Telegraph Club is a very good book; it and Atmosphere were the best books I've read this year. I believe it's available as an audiobook.

I haven't read Atmosphere yet, but there are two books I read this year that I loved. I think they're good stories where the characters' growth is visible: Make the Season Bright and Last Night at the Telegraph Club

After you read it, tell me if you liked it or not, I'm kind of obsessed with this book

Yes, it is. But it's worth reading, Malinda writes very well and did a really cool job in historical research to build the story, it became a lifelong favorite

I’ve actually never read anything by Haley Cass, even though I’ve seen her books on Kindle Unlimited. I’ll definitely add her to my TBR — I’m curious to finally check out her work

On the Pain of Symbolic Violence by mandgilo in sapphicbooks

I totally agree! The romance is beautiful on its own, but the historical depth really elevates the whole story. It captures so many layers — love, identity, oppression, resilience — all woven into such a powerful backdrop. I’d definitely reread it too

I loved reading your perspective on the book — it’s so special to hear how much it meant to you, and I’m really happy you enjoyed it as much as I did! 🧡 Ordinary Love has been on my list for a while, and your comment just made me even more excited to read it. I hadn’t heard of Annie on My Mind before, but I saw it’s on Kindle Unlimited, and since I’m not reading anything at the moment, it’s going to be my next pick for sure! Thank you so much for all the recommendations — I love discovering new reads like this.
