SBTB is more independent, and probably 48% more silly

The Rec League: Ace- and Aro-Spectrum Books

The Rec League - heart shaped chocolate resting on the edge of a very old book

This Rec League came from Kirsty. Thanks, Kirsty! Ace-spectrum and or aro-spectrum fiction (both romance and non-romance) is fine. Bonus points for characters exploring/still trying understand their a-romanticism/sexuality. Shana: One of my favorite authors for ace romance is Claire Kann. I’m reading The Romantic Agenda  right now, and I love it! Most of her asexual characters start the book with an understanding of their sexuality though, and the plot is more about them finding a … Continue reading The Rec League: Ace- and Aro-Spectrum Books

Workspace with computer, journal, books, coffee, and glasses.

It’s November! Now to gear up to eat my body weight in food. My partner and I were already planning out Thanksgiving menu and I think we just to make and eat a bunch of sides. The turkey honestly ranks pretty low when compared with things like stuffing, mashed potatoes, and sweet potato casserole. I wore my hot dog costume to the office today and it was a big hit! It was so delightfully silly … Continue reading Links: Pumpkins, Games, & More

Book Review

An Inconvenient Vow by Alice Coldbreath

An Inconvenient Vow

With the exception of Laura Griffin and Rachel Reid, I don’t really do multiple reviews for an author. Well, I need to add a third name to that list: Alice Coldbreath. I reviewed Wed by Proxy as it scratched an itch that I didn’t know could be scratched. I have now worked my way through most of the Brides of Karadok series and despite loving every single book (they’re all so unique in their premises … Continue reading An Inconvenient Vow by Alice Coldbreath

Help A Bitch Out - SOLVED!

HaBO: Threesome in a Parking Lot

This HaBO comes from Becky, who wants to find this romance: This one’s driving me crazy. I own it, but I haven’t read it in ages my digital libraries are so out of control I can’t even begin to try and find it with no author or title. It’s a m/m/f erotic romance where the heroes are already together (they live together, but I’m pretty sure they’re together, together too) and the heroine keeps running … Continue reading HaBO: Threesome in a Parking Lot

Cover Snark: A Feast for the Eyes

Rescued by the Raider by Riley Onyx. A toxic, bright green cover. A bare-chested man in a leather loincloth and a leather strap across his chest is resting a sword on his shoulder. The blade is definitely against his skin and he has tribal tattoos all over his arm. He is lifting his leg as green spray swirls around his legs.

Welcome back to Cover Snark! From Jennifer: Nothing says vicious raider like pausing the fight for a barre routine… Sarah: Do you think the other Banished Alien Warriors get SO MAD when this guy is on the team with them? “OH HEY! Y’all, I have the perfect synchronized rescue routine for us! Places everyone. And 5 and 6 and 7 and 8!” Amanda: It looks like he’s lifting his leg to air something out. Maybe … Continue reading Cover Snark: A Feast for the Eyes

A Haunting on the Hill by Elizabeth Hand

A Haunting on the Hill

A Haunting on the Hill is a horror novel set in the same mansion as Shirley Jackson’s classic The Haunting of Hill House. There are brief references to the events in Jackson’s novel and a snippet of her dialogue, but those were the only things connecting the two books.  For me, this was an excellent, creepy book that worked well as a standalone, but I think people especially nostalgic for The Haunting of Hill House … Continue reading A Haunting on the Hill by Elizabeth Hand
