I'm gonna start the audiobook of Ramona Riley after I finish my current listen. What are your thoughts on the book so far?

What did you think of it? I've listened to the audiobook and bought and read paperback later. I think it's underappreciated. Just because the setting is MF dating show, it's not less of a sapphic romance.

I really enjoyed how you wrote her. I wasn't her biggest fan before but I certainly discovered her in this book.

It was definitely worth the wait. 🤌🏻🤌🏻🤌🏻

I will definitely re-read it soon. I loved all those little bits entwined together, like when Nicola first saw Geeta and then the movie premiere. And how Nicola melts into a puddle all the time.

I've waited for this book for over a year. It was the perfect ending to the series.

Yay! It's so wonderful ending to the series. I fell in love with Geeta and Nicola.

It was so wonderful. Bloody marvelous. I finished the book last night. Wonderful series as a whole.

The novel starts as funny and light and becomes more serious as the story develops. The story matures from the baby-sapphics to mature women loving women.

Discovering Nicola by Clare Ashton is bloody wonderful.

I loved how the first 2/3 of the book was mostly just Nicola and Geeta. Clare Ashton gave them room to breath, learn, discover and become themselves. I loved the short flashbacks entwined into the scenes. Especially Nicola got a lot of backstory.

There are so many wonderful, funny, emotional, hilarious, heartaching and insightful bits in the novel. I lost count at some point.

The MCs are mature in age and also mentally. They have insecurities and feel jealousy but both say things out loud eventually before everything goes down the drain.

Discovering Nicola can definitely be read as standalone but reading Millie and Olivia first gives you more context. It's queer awekening later in life sapphic romance.

Go get your copy!

She has really great books. I've read probably 10 of them so far.

How is the book? I've struggled with the previous release but haven't completely given up yet. The one before that I have on my Kindle but haven't started to read yet.
