I simply do not understand how I slept on this. Brb aggressively throwing money at Kobo 💸 for my much-needed fix of men in sweaters crying
After Hours at Dooryard Books by Cat Sebastian is out today so nobody has any excuse for reading anything else.
This romance is like six coping mechanisms in a trench coat and not all of them are healthy, but everyone’s trying their best. I am desperate to hear other people react to it.

I am once more in that overwhelmed and tender state of “have just finished a book by @ajdemas.bsky.social and i don’t know what to do with myself until the next one is released”. My heart is bursting at the seams yet again, her romances feel like crafted in a lab for me, like a designer drug.

I don’t know who needs to hear this but The Appoach（从万米高空降临）by larivegauche is so good, one of those very sensitively and sensibly depicted modern-day mature relationships between professional people that I tried and failed to take my time reading it. Breezed thru! #danmei

It’s not very often that I find a sequel is more enjoyable than the first book, but here it is: Thief of Night holds better than Book of Night (but arguably it’s just a big book split into two). Still not as good as Curseworkers, alas.

KPop Demon Hunters is a brilliant film, but it’s also lovely seeing its voice actors, songwriters, and singers become stars after years of struggling in the industry
