Fence was starting to come out right around when I stopped regularly getting floppies for budgeting reasons. It is exactly the kind of comic I would have love and would have added to my pull list. It is still exactly the kind of comic I love now – sports romance is the genre of romance…

I heard about Take Him Home by Ashlyn Harmon while attending a panel at Sports Romance Con 2026. It was a panel on LGBT+ representation in sports romances and had a stacked group of panelists. I was caught off guard by how emotional I became during the event. Being in a room of people celebrating…

A couple months ago I asked my friend Caitlyn if I could borrow a flower crown for a cottage core themed birthday party. She lent me not just the flower crown but also two Abby Jimenez books. I mostly use audiobooks for nonfiction but drew the library lottery and was able to hybrid read between…

Set Point by Meg Jones is now the second tennis based LGBT+ romance I’ve read. The first being Thirty Love by Tom Vellner, which was one of the first books I read this year and rated four stars. Like Thirty Love Jone’s Set Point is a rival to lovers story, the hottest trope right now…

Audiobooks are my favorite format for taking in nonfiction and I was not let down by the audiobook for A Terrible Intimacy: Interracial Life in the Slaveholding South by Melvin Patrick Ely. I was provided both the ebook text and audiobook by the publisher for review and I hybrid read between the two. That said…

Most Ardently: A Pride & Prejudice Remix by Gavbe Cole Novoa is another book I have been saving for the Trans Rights Readathon and indeed I am reading it for the “transmacs and trans man representation” category.

I chose Hijab Butch Blues by Lamya H to fulfill the “book recommended by a friend/bookseller/librarian” category of the Trans Rights Readathon. It is the second book I have read for the 2026 Trans Rights Readathon. I’ve been saving the memoir for this purpose since hearing about it in a video by Alex on Pucks…

Kind: A Romance Where Nothing Bad Happens by Hannah Leigh promises that “nothing bad happens.” It delivers. That is not to say there are not stakes in the novel. Both main characters undergo tremendous character growth and face difficult, complicated choices that they help each other navigate. The main characters, Drew and Ellis, aren’t quite…

My first read in the Trans Rights Readathon is Marsha: The Joy and Defiance of Marsha P. Johnson by Tourmaline. It fulfilled the category of “a book by or featuring trans elders, or a trans history book.” I highly recommend the audiobook which you can find at the Queer Liberation Library or another library near you! Remember…
