Butcher & Blackbird

Well, I definitely didn’t have recommending a book with “accidental cannibalism” in the list of trigger warnings on my bingo card, but here we are… While I definitely was icked out at some of the descriptions of decaying dead bodies and um, some of the descriptions of the murdery activities in this novel, it was […]

Novellas: An Update

I have definitely focused a lot on novellas this month. Since my last update, I have read an additional 11 novellas along with my other reading for the month, and the previous 18 I already mentioned. Some of these are really just… wat. Sex Stalker is by a dude, which is clear, because only a […]

The neurospicy elements were handled kindly, and showed one partner supporting the other by doing the things that they knew were overwhelming for the undiagnosed partner. And(!) in the process of researching how to support her partner, […]
