Book Recs: 10 Lesser-Known Gay Space Books to Check Out

Book Recs: 10 Lesser-Known Gay Space Books to Check Out

Outer space is, well, scary, if I'm being honest. But also cool! In fiction, at least. So I have compiled a list of books that are set in space and on other planets and also gay. (A term I am using broadly, since these are mostly m/m, but there is one about a nonbinary character.) About half are romance-centric, the other half have some romance but it's small or not the only focus. But I enjoyed...
 
Cover Love: Best Book Covers from Books I Read in 2022

Cover Love: Best Book Covers from Books I Read in 2022

Is it just me, or are book covers getting better? I have SO many this year. These aren't in any order. I tried to group them together by similar art styles or color, just for a nice aesthetic. And I chose a few to talk about, but I couldn't talk about them all because I'd just be repeating how pretty everything is a million times. And most of them aren't just great art, they're also great text...

Update: Life and Books (Sep 2022)

Well, September was a month. And it's over now! I never know how to start these posts anymore. I call these "Life and Books," but as it turns out, life is usually either too boring to be worth talking about or too complicated to want to talk about, and I pretty much just talk about books, games, music, podcasts, and movies/shows instead. Speaking of which... I found this really cool cover of...
 
Book Recs: 10 Lesser-Known M/M Urban Fantasy Series

Book Recs: 10 Lesser-Known M/M Urban Fantasy Series

I love paranormal and urban fantasy! I could give tons of recommendations, depending on how loosely you define "urban fantasy." For this, I tried to stick to what most people probably think of---our world (though maybe with known existence of magic), modern times, not too slow or rural, at least some action/battles---though I did slip a few in that don't fit the criteria perfectly. I could give...

Update: Life and Books (Feb 2022)

I know February isn’t quite over, but I didn’t feel like trying to figure out another post for today, so we’re doing this one early. And since the world is not doing great right now, and I’m not doing great right now, and a lot of people aren’t doing great right now, I’ve decided to...

Cover Characteristics: Best Book Covers from Books I Read in 2021

I love pretty book covers! They can definitely entice me to read a book I probably wouldn't have been quite interested enough in otherwise. Or make me more excited for a book I already wanted to read. Or make me want a print copy, just so I can look at it whenever I want. So, as I think I've said before, this is a post I really look forward to each year. I included some runners-up, but I...

Book Review: Because You Needed Me (Tales of the Tuath Dé Book 2) by Tess Barnett

Ciaran, dying from the soul-sucking spell, heads home to Tir na nOg with Trent in the hopes that his father can cure him, even though going home means facing danger and secrets he's kept from Trent. Julien and Noah are also looking for a cure, for Noah, and end up in Tir na nOg too, though it might not necessarily be the chance for a cure they hope it will...
