2 - Cemetery boys
Amazon recommended me this book while i was buying something else and the cover looked cool so here we are months after buying it i finally read it.
First things first i read the br translation and not only did they keep the use of neutral language in the book (bruxe) but also made a point of having all the team involved be queer wich is very nice and always appreciated.
The story was fine, i guessed who was the bad guy and what he was doing from the moment he was introduced and even how the story would end with Julian the dead boy being either ressurected or not being actually dead(turns out it was both) and the solving the crime part of the book was not very explored but the real focus of the book are Yadriel's attempt to be accepted as a man and a bruxo and his relationship with Julian and those are actually very well written.
Yadriel and Julian's relationship and growing romance was very sweet, every moment they spent together is gold. Julian's impulsiveness is a perfect balance for Yadriel's overthinking and they bring out the best out of each other, honestly the scenes in his bedroom where they were listening to music together and being gay were everything. I also was very glad that outside of misgendering Yadriel when they first met there was no conflict in the romance regarding his transness.
Not sure why but i was surprised both of them were already out, i feel like in these ya romances usually at least one of them is either in the closet or unaware of their queerness and i fully expected that to be Julian. Instead he is not only agressively out but has a queer found family of his own (do wish we had spent more time with them cause they were great).
Yadriel's relationship with his family and his desperation to be seen by them was something i didnt get at first, but seeing them interacting i got why that mattered to him and seeing that big connected community i really wanted him to be a part of that as well. And im so glad he not only gets that but his father apologizes and accepts him BEFORE he saves everyone and does some impossible bruxo shit no one has done in centurys, his family loves him for who he is and not just because he is the big damn hero.
Yadriel confronting his uncle in the end was kinda bad, it was way too obvious to work as a reveal and i just didnt care about the guy like stab him and move on... that said once he died it gets incredible and i legit got emotional when Julian came back to life only to see Yadriel dying for him(shoutout to Maritza for bringing him back and also for deciding that using animal blood for healing is terrible but human blood is more than ok i stan) and the moment where Julian is freaking out being protective over him to the point of almost fighting his dad was honestly my favorite part in the whole book.
Like i said i figured it would end with Julian being ressurrected early on and i was honestly kinda disappointed, like its a love story with a ghost its a tragic romance with no happy ending waiting to happen. But actually when we got there i was so happy and just seeing Yadriel get to introduce Julian to his mother and have him shouting and cheering for him cured my depression. Fuck tragedy.

Another Leclerc - social media
+ summary: When rumors go around about another Leclerc joining the f1 grid, people automatically assume its Arthur, completely forgetting about y/n leclerc. She'll do anything for a formula one seat. Even if it meant going behind a certain driver's back.
+pairing: none.
+ warning(s): sexism, google translate (I don't speak Italian nor French but if I have something wrong, let me know), like one curse word.
face claim: Lindsay brewer
+ author's note: for a while now I've been wanting to get back into writing, but writing fics stress me out, so I figured making social media/instgram posts will be a lot easier to put together. I've also decided to change how I do social media posts and I'm trying to figure things out, so in the meantime, bear with me.

⤷user2: and the fact that she's replacing someone that didn't need to be replaced is astounding!

Chili man🌶️
How could do this to me? I thought we were friends.
Mini Leclerc
What do you mean?
Chili man🌶️
Don't play dumb, y/n.
You know exactly what you did.
Mini Leclerc
Yes, I did sign with Ferrari.
Yes, I did take your seat.
You didn't sign an extension and they reached out to me. I saw an opportunity and I took it.
Chili man🌶️
I was getting ready to talk to Fred about an extension.
Mini Leclerc
Early bird gets the worm?
Chili Man🌶️
You're a real bitch, you know that?
Mini Leclerc
You think that's the first time a man, much less anyone has called me that?
You know as much as I do that Formula one is a competitive sport and in order to get a seat, you may have to do some unspeakable things.
Let me ask you a question, though.
If the roles were reversed and you were me, would you have done the same thing?
*read*
Mini Leclerc
you leaving me on read lets me know you would've.
But I'll never apologize for my actions, Carlos.
If you have any interest in IndyCar, I can give you some resources to help you out. Good luck in any of your future endeavors, Carlos.
