Books returned June 25 & July 2
Love, Lies and Hocus Pocus - totally impulse grabbed this off the new releases shelves because I liked the cover, but found myself caught up in the mysteries of the two characters and where their magic comes from. Already got the next book out.
I Want Be A Wall - Asexual gay romance fangirl weds gay guy tragically in love with his straight best friend. Who is somehow their gardener. None of this is really explained but it's cute watching them figure out how to support each other.
Rock Manning Goes For Broke - tragic, funny, "gonzo" story set in a developing dystopia. I honestly don't know what I just read.
Spell Bound - Rook has been kicked out of magical society after the death of his grandmother because he isn't magic enough. His harebrained plan to rejoin his people is strangely... kind of working? Accidentally? And the non-binary apprentice of his new boss' competition is entirely too cute... Super cute queer magic romance. Incredibly sweet and cozy. 🪄💜 I think I'm going to have to pre-order F T Lukens ' next book as a gift to myself.
The Renaissance of Gwen Hathaway - Ren faire YA romance. Very sweet and a little bit magical. I wasn't in the mood for the main characters' body image issues, but they were age appropriate and probably resonate well with the book's actual target audience. I unfortunately had just read an adult romance with a more mature view of weight so going immediately to this viewpoint was jarring and a bit unpleasant. But I still enjoyed the book despite mentally screaming at the protagonist a lot. 😅
Cookie Press - returned unused because it got too hot for baking. Maybe another time!
