RECOMMENDED: Space Opera by Catherynne M. Valente is $1.99! A sequel is coming out in September! Carrie gave this one an A-:
I loved the book and would gleefully quote it all day. It made me feel happy and bubbly. It celebrated art of all kinds, even (possibly especially) shitty art. It made me feel hopeful and it made me laugh, and I love the message with which it begins and ends.
The Rec League: Closed Door Queer Romances
This Rec League comes from Katie! 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).

HaBO: She Charges His Caravan
This HaBO is from Christine, who wants to find this book based on sample she read: I downloaded a sample of this book within the last few years and I lost track of it… but I’m still thinking about it! The story is set in a pre-industrial world, but I’m not sure if it was Western European-ish or from parts further east. I don’t know if there are fantasy/paranormal elements. There’s an arranged marriage, I’m … Continue reading HaBO: She Charges His Caravan
