Book Review: F.T. Lukens – Love At Second Sight
I might’ve mentioned before that F.T. Lukens is one of my absolute favourite authors since they write queer fantasy in settings where queerness isn’t questioned, so the focus is on other aspects. After reading „Otherworldly“, though, I was a bit hesitant because it wasn’t exactly my favourite book of the year. So it really took me quite a while to pick up their next book, „Love At Second Sight“. Actually it was decided by chance, since I have a box full of snippets with the titles of unread books and this year I basically pull a snippet out of the box and (most of the time) read what’s on it.…

Book review: Rebecca Thorne – Can’t Spell Treason Without Tea
It’s been a while. Yes, I’m alive. Yes, life’s been busy. Anyway. I’ve been reading a lot recently, so I decided to come back with a book review of an absolutely lovely book I’ve read recently: Can’t Spell Treason Without Tea by Rebecca Thorne. I’ve made mistakes in connection to this book. Nope, reading it was definitely no mistake. But I’ll explain if you click the „Read More“ 🙂 Short info: WLW romance, nonbinary side character, potential queer side romance developing Hint: I’ve read the German translation published by Piper

Book review: Aiden Thomas – Cemetery Boys
It’s pride month ❤🧡💛💚💙💜 No better way to celebrate that than by advertising some queer books. I decided to use this time of the year for recommending some of the books I’ve read but either forgot or didn’t find the time / energy to review. Because there are indeed a few books that deserve a recommendation. One of those books is Cemetery Boys by Aiden Thomas. I’d easily call this one of the best queer books I’ve ever read and I’ll let you know why. Trans masc protagonist, MLM romance, trans author (Latinx) Hint: I’ve read the German translation published by Dragonfly as „Yadriel & Julian – Cemetery Boys)

Book review: F.T. Lukens – Spell Bound
If I haven’t done so before, I hereby declare F.T. Lukens my favourite author of all times. I mean it. They deserve it. I’ve read three out of their four books (and the fourth one is resting in my bookshelf, waiting for its time to shine) and all of them were absolutely stunning and exactly the type of fiction I looooove. If you’re looking for some cozy queer fantasy, F.T. Lukens is your author. And Spell Bound is worth a consideration. Short info: Queer romance, nonbinary protagonist, nonbinary (I think) author

Book review: Travis Baldree – Legends and Lattes
Sometimes I aimlessly scroll through Amazon’s section of queer romance books to see if there’s anything noteworthy that I haven’t discovered in the book shop yet and that doesn’t scream „SPICE“ loudly and clearly. During one such scrolling sessions, I stumbled across Travis Baldree’s Legends and Lattes and I was intrigued immediately. When I found it in the local bookshop, I bought it – and then it rested for a while in my bookshelf before I finally made a move to read it. Short info: WLW romance, queer fantasy, very cozy

Book review: Gry Kappel Jensen – Nightshade (Rosenholm Trilogy part 3)
I can’t put into words how much I was waiting for this book to come out after reading the second part of the Rosenholm trilogy. You can find my review here. The series built up a lot of tension and the ending of part two was so damn promising that I was burning to read part 3. Yet, I had to wait for a bit before I could finally dive into the book, because my bookstore got two (!) faulty copies for my order and I was seriously bummed. Every day I had to wait for the book was a day too much. As soon as I finally got an…

Book review: F.T. Lukens – In Deeper Waters
F.T. Lukens has my heart in a tight grip. And it all started with So This Is Ever After, a book I randomly discovered as an Amazon recommendation. When I found a copy in the local bookstore I couldn’t get my hands on it fast enough because the summary had sounded so tempting. And I was hooked. I discovered that there were even more books by F.T. Lukens and started running after an English copy – until there was a sale on English books online and I used the opportunity to order both a copy of In Deeper Waters and Spell Bound. Since then, I had been waiting for the…
