He’s got a giant head and he looks like a baby bobcat. He … Continue reading Elyse Watches The Bachelorette–S21 E1: Picasso →

Hi, I am requesting this for a coworker who was lamenting that there are no adult closed door queer romances, as everything closed door is either YA or adult but not actually a romance because it is full of pain and struggles (no HEA). I brainstormed for a while and could only come up with YA titles. Help! Tara: Heather Rose Jones writes queer historical fantasy that fit the … Continue reading The Rec League: Closed Door Queer Romances →

Goooood morning! It’s a slow content day so that means afternoon links has turned into a little morning treat. Might I suggest giving it a read over tea or coffee and maybe your favorite pastry. Also breaking news! I’m tired of it being hot. I am longing for fall or, dare I even say it, winter. I want to nest in my blankets or take a steamy bath without worrying about passing out. I also … Continue reading Links: Podcasts, Howie Duwett & More →
