Also, Muzzy says “How YOU doin’?” We start in Newton, MA with a ubiquitous Dropkick Murphys song playing over some arial shots. Juliana is waiting for him and tells him … Continue reading Elyse Watches The Bachelor–S29 E6: It’s Woosta→
Sorcery and Small Magics by Maiga Doocy is $2.99! This one is a slightly cozy, queer fantasy with rivals who are now magically connected after a curse goes wrong. Last time this was on sale, the comments mention it’s a slow burn and the first book does not have an HEA in it.

Kiki: I love the idea of this cover, but it is just so obvious that these two people are not organically in the same photo They’re looking beyond each other? Sarah: They’re touching but don’t seem to be connected. Tara: It’s giving more “Okay, okay. Don’t look, but did you see that person? I said don’t look!

Happy Saturday! Here’s how we’re kicking off our reading this March: Claudia: I’m reading Manic Pixie Dream Earl by Jenny Holiday. It’s interesting because Earls Trip didn’t quite hold my attention but I am enjoying this one much more. It’s out in late May. Shana: I’m reading Taken to Lemora by Elizabeth Stephens. It’s a dark alien romance. Her worldbuilding is solid but I haven’t decided if it’s too dark for me. Sarah: I am … Continue reading Whatcha Reading? March 2025, Part One→
