Fantasy romance lovers, let’s settle a debate! If you had to choose...
1️⃣ The grumpy but super intelligent hero who would burn the world for you?
2️⃣ The dangerous villain who actually might burn the world? (But, you know... for love.)

Okay, so I just heard of an interesting genre mashup: women's fiction and horror. Ex. is The Haunting of Hill House. Thoughts? #genremashup #booksky

The great thing about the anit trans executive order is that since it was written by morons and refers to sex as "fixed at conception", everyone in the US is now female.

Hmmm. Favorite comfort read...
I would say almost anything by Amanda M. Lee (cozy mysteries), but I especially like the Mystic Caravan series.

I found out a long time ago it's more fun being the Wicked Witch than the Helpless Princess...
