#non-binary author

okay i did that YA book trend. how’d I do?

I would like to introduce: my most anticipated release of 2023!!!

Jamison has an amazing style & I've wanted to read their stories for a while now. SO happy they are finally being published. I am hungry for the ambitious black ballerina who makes deals in blood to succeed against the rich.

So lemme tell you a bit about my main character! She’s a personal reflection of myself, despite the fact that she wholly identifies as a woman whereas I’m a lovely non-binary creature 🥰🥰🥰🥰💗

Carolina reviews One Last Stop by Casey McQuiston [Out June 1, 2021]

It’s a series of short 5-10 page vignettes about love and desire between different people in Montreal neighborhoods. The vignettes are connected by theme and location only. The book is packed with representation–there are queer…

Although I would have liked for this to be a little longer, I really enjoyed the art, characters, and historical context. Westerns are not usually my genre, but I was sucked into this story.

Genevra Littlejohn reviews Cinder Ella by S.T Lynn
