I didn't expect to enjoy this one as much as I did, much less have it take me back to High School and give me all sorts of emotions like this did.
The overall story was fun! It was so much fun to read about a high school prom, the ups and downs of that age, the changes in relationships, the growing apart and yet forming new relationships, the borderline of being a kid and yet learning to grow still.

Nonbinary British writer Olivia Laing‘s experience of renovating a garden in Suffolk is entwined with an exploration of the role of gardens in history & in particular their connection with sociopolitical issues. The role of gardens in the lives of queer folk during a time when it wasn‘t good to be gay, the therapeutic effect of gardens to this day, the lush botanical language: there‘s so much that I love about this book! #LGBTQ
I loved this. Holden is about to surprise his bf of 4yrs with tickets to LA for a chance to compete on Madcap Market, a game show Holden and his mother used to watch religiously until she passed away from cancer. However, his bf breaks up with him and he goes to LA wondering where he‘ll find a partner. Enter Leo Min. They agree to pretend to be together to get on the show. This was steamy (for reals if you‘re not into gay sex sit this one out)👇🏼
I‘ve only read one other by this author- Cantoras, but I definitely will pick up her other books when I see them.
For fans of Sarah Waters and France‘s de Pontes Peebles. Historical Fiction that follows tango music‘s evolution in mostly Argentina, through the eyes of a young woman who chooses to disguise herself as a man in order to be accepted as a musician.
Slow moving but beautiful. Sapphic and sexy.
4/5⭐️ Finally finding out what the Bright Lands are was absolutely nuts. Wasn‘t expecting all that! I loved the way the book paced itself with clues every which way but still never enough for me to figure out till the big reveal. I think I enjoyed Clark‘s POV best.
