Book Review: When The Earth Was Green by Riley Black
This is an adult book written at an adult reading level, but it captures the same sense of wonder that you’d feel as a child, learning about a really cool animal or historic period at the same time.
Book Review: A/S/L by Jeanne Thornton
A/S/L by Jeanne Thornton is one of the first books I added to my TBR based solely on seeing it on a list of queer books coming out in April.
Book Review: A Gentleman’s Gentleman by TJ Alexander

Book Review: Proof by Adam Rogers
This book would have been so much more entertaining in the hands of an author like Mary Roach.
Book Review: Lustful Appetites by Rachel Hope Cleves

Book Review: They Bloom at Night by Trang Thanh Tran

Book Review: Our Share of Night by Mariana Enriquez
Ultimately, Our Share of Night is another example of why I don’t give books a star rating. This is a clear book and reader mismatch.
