#OffMyShelf “current issue”

Really interesting memoir about growing up nonbinary and asexual. I read for a variety of reasons but one is to experience what is outside of my own microcosm and this book certainly does that. I can also imagine this book being a lifeline for anyone who is questioning their own gender. It‘s so important that works like this remain accessible for everyone.

Gothic story. Haunted house. Terrible relatives. Second chance at love (M/M). Neurodivergent MC.

When my mother was alive, I was a different person. That little girl wore simple clothes and wildflowers in her hair and could sing any aria or tavern song known in the Northern Kingdoms.

I'm reading these as my library holds come in. I don't think it's massively important to read them in order. This is book 5, I've read 1 and 2.

The writing has improved loads. It read like original fiction and not reworked fanfic. It's still simplistic and a lot of things are touched on but not fully explored.

My husband & I didn‘t exchange gifts since we decided we‘d rather use that money to take a mini vacation (sans kids). Although I did order myself 2 books I‘ve really wanted to read.

Very charming and cozy watching these two work hard to figure each other out and grow closer. I wound up looking qualia since it never came up in the book, and understanding this concept of fleeting moments and one-time experiences really heightened my experience of this quiet, slow-paced story. #Manga #LGBTQIA

Cute cozy mystery ~ lots of nods to classic characters and tropes. #bookspin for December.

This is a really interesting, thought-provoking primer on gender non conformity. You may not agree with Alok's critique of the gender binary, but their counter arguments to common criticisms of gender nonconforming people are well put.
