I’m floating outside your window at night like a vampire, tapping on the glass, but it’s just so I can ask if you remembered to leave a review for the indie book you just read

I don't write book reviews very often, but I was lucky enough to get an ARC of Cat Sebastian's After Hours at Dooryard Books. One of the best books I've read this year, by a great author at the top of her game. Need to be reminded about finding joy when the world is on fire? this is for you

Glitterland, by Alexis Hall Richly detailed with striking imagery, this romance between a posh bipolar writer and a working class would-be-model "glitter pirate" is full of warmth, wit, and compassion. Simple and beautifully told. #🌈📚 #Authors #books #reviews #lgbtqromance #booksky #queerbookworms
