    Saw someone with gender critical (code for TERF if you didn't know, now you do) in their bio which immediately made me feel immensely uncomfortable SOOOO lets flood this thread with your fave trans books and why you love them!! 🏳️‍⚧️🫶

    I have so many faves that it's hard to pick, but one of my top faves is definitely Heir to the Autumn Court by Elle Porter! It features a fae princeling putting together their court, which happens to be a bunch of beautiful (mostly trans) guys.

    Editing to add that if you think a book counts as trans, it probably does!! Any genres are encouraged 🫶🫶 (also have been LOVING how much of a range y'all have been recommending! It's cool to see y'all talk about books I haven't heard of yet!!)

  • Making a List

    Hey, readers! 🌊 I’m putting together a list of polycule/throuple books! I have about 12. Does anyone have a favorite book with one or both of these in the story??

    Can I mute a book I've read?

    I accidentally read a very popular book, and I didn't much like it. The problem is that because it's so popular, it's taking up about 70% of my feed right now. I disagree with nearly everything people say about it (I won't say which book it is so I don't start an argument that boils down to taste being different, lol), and it's getting a bit much.

    I figure it's rude to ask people to stop talking about it, so I'm wondering if there's a way to mute a book? Or do I have to delete it and lose my progress on a badge I really wanted? :')

    EDIT: I have no integrity, so the second someone asked which book it was, I told them. Sorry.

    Yeah, this is already making my skin crawl and I just started it. AJW is a beast when it comes to horror, and his YA stuff was already pretty intense but this is a whole new level.

    Superb and beautifully written. I think that Isabel Cañas is going to become an auto-read author for me, because I thought The Hacienda was great, but Vampires absolutely blew me away. I'd highly recommend this for people who are tentative about dipping their toes into horror because it had a lot of tension and the vampires were creepy as hell, but it was definitely more focused on the romance and the war, and the horror elements were like the seasoning that brought it all together. Cañas is a master at writing yearning.

    I can appreciate a nice platonic friendship but come on, you’re lying if you don’t think my boy Sam is crushing on Frodo a little bit 😭 (call me delusional)

  • Learnt something

    I learnt from an author on Instagram the actual difference between why choose & reverse harem

    WC: All members ( 2 or more) are ALL connected . Swords cross and everything

    RH: 1 woman, 2 men or more just connect with the woman, no swords
