i totally fell off with this blog over the holidays, but i’m back and somehow i have almost 100 followers!? y’all are the best, and i hope everyone had a great new years! i managed to read a list of cages by robin roe in between all of the holiday madness and i absolutely adored it. i honestly felt like my heart was being torn out during the last third of the book, and it’s definitely going to stick with me for a long time.

i wanted to start out this year with a series, and after ordering all of the raven cycle books on sale from amazon not too long ago, i thought this would be the perfect time! i also want to start posting more original content on this blog, like edits, playlists, etc., so hopefully you’ll be seeing some of that from me soon!!

Pro Tip

Don’t read books with trans main characters by cis authors, they can’t even get side characters right most of the time so it usually doesn’t end well. At least don’t expect much from them

Of course I’m not going to say this without also mentioning some trans and nonbinary authors:

Austin Chant (writes romance and speculative fiction)

Kris Ripper (writes romance and erotica)

Meredith Russo (writes contemporary, only one novel is currently out)

Alex Gino (writes children’s fiction)

Juno Dawson (writes YA fiction)
