edit data

JW Kingsley has been a voracious reader since the age of four. As soon as she could hold a pencil she was scribbling stories, bad poetry (and some decent poetry), and dreaming about writing her own books.
She is currently making a new home in a small town in North Carolina after spending the last twenty years traipsing around the world with her partner, their daughter, and half-feral cat. If she’s not writing she’s home-educating, gardening, cooking, chasing around two puppies, or traveling—all while drinking ridiculous amounts of tea and reading a mix of smut, fantasy, and time-travel novels.

3.5 stars rounded up. This was a good read- a bit of a departure from Christina Lauren’s norm, I’d say, but worth the read! Emery is a work-a-holic with a top secret scientist job her husband has no idea the truth of. When an accident (or was it?) fo ...more

Ooh I really liked this one! Was it perfect? No. But it did help sustain some moon/space joy that I’ve been missing since the Artemis II mission ended. I loved Joan and her whole arc (haaaaaaated Barbara) and the ending had me sobbing.
