Welcome back to Cover Snark! From Elizabeth: I can’t. Just beyond bonkers. The antlers also seem to be a crown?!? Or a third eye and antlers?!? And based on deer man, is the guy behind him a magic skunk with the white? Cover has flowers, fire, shrubs, a cave, library shelves and books. Plus random mismatched fonts. Jeez. Sarah: Left dude and Center dude have the same Cut and Paste face, right? RIGHT? (It’s freaking … Continue reading Cover Snark: Jazz Hands →

For this month’s kickass woman, we turn our attention to Japan and the legendary life of Queen Himiko, the first recorded ruler of ancient Japan – not only the first female ruler, but the first ruler, period. I’m going to do a little summarizing here, but I’m also going to be very link-heavy. So much legend surrounds Queen Himiko that I am waaay over my head in terms of describing her life, but I do … Continue reading Kickass Women in History: Queen Himiko →

For whatever reason, March is one of the most packed months this year with regard to queer releases, and it’s got some of the best queer romances I’ve read in a while! Treat yourself to the kickoff of spring with one (or five!) of these delightful books!
Every now and again, I remember this video. Well, sort of. Specifically I remember to sing and dance to it across the kitchen at inopportune moments. I also love silly videos featuring game characters and screen recordings. It’s one of my favorite subgenres, even if I have NO idea which game it is (I know which game this is). Do you have any fave video game clips or parodies? Please do share in the comments … Continue reading Friday Videos are Uber L33t →

Thank you for joining me for a “from the vault” episode! This is episode 147, originally aired June 26, 2015, so almost 11 years ago. Drs. Jen Lois and Joanna Gregson did a multi-year study on the community of romance authors and I have never stopped thinking about it. In this conversation, we’re talking about that study, what they learned about romance as a community, especially about gender dynamics.

Dom-Com by Adriana Anders is $2.99! It’s a Kindle Daily Deal, so today only! Lara gave this one a B grade:
While I was frustrated by the third act and by the plot line that didn’t make sense, I was delighted by everything else. I really enjoyed reading Dom-Com and am very happy to recommend it to the Bitchery!

CW: Self-harm (historical), violence, death of secondary characters. AJ reviewed the first book in the series, Slippery Creatures and enjoyed it and so did I. There is a simple reason for this being a review of the next two books together rather than one: when I finished The Sugared Game I was in agony, desperate for the rest of Will and Kim’s story in Subtle Blood. This is the second time I’ve read this trilogy. It … Continue reading The Sugared Game and Subtle Blood by KJ Charles →
