*Logs back into GR after being gone for 2 years 👀*

Hello. Do y'all still remember me? Lol! God, I missed interacting with you folks here 😂 Seeing the notifs that accumulated in my absence is a bit overwhelming, but it looks like GR only kept those that appeared within the last 12 months... So, I guess I'll need to check each of my reviews if I want to see comments I've missed. Oh, boy 😅

Whew. Things are heating up 😳 and I’m crushing on Sloane just a tiny bit 👌🏻😆

I don't like the new UI for viewing books. Now there's even an annoying bug that wouldn't allow me to hit Want to Read in it.

Anybody else having this problem?

This is what you get for being a Good Samaritan. You die in a girls’ locker room at the hands of a deranged overachiever.

😆

So Scarlett did what a lot of people did after a messy break-up. She went on Facebook to look up her exes.

Scarlett, no! 🙈 lol

DWP fans who are up for a short angsty fic (only ~13K words), read The Anguish of the World Is on My Tongue Series by winter156. God, my heart 💔🥺

That's all.

Oh, my God! That plot twist! 😱‼️

“So how do you plan to make it up to me?”

It took me a moment to register what Teresa had said and when I did, my heart did a little stutter step that was a simultaneous oh fuuuck and oh yesss. “Wait, she’s queer?”

😆

Maybe we’ve got this all wrong. Maybe the whole team should be making out if it results in us playing this well. -Hope

Lol. Ok, TBF, it is getting better. Hopefully, this momentum will be sustained.

I’ve made the biggest mistake of my life. -Becca

A bit dramatic but ok. Really struggling with this book. Please tell me it gets better.

“Do you want to—you could try, um, touching my neck?” August offers lamely, hating herself. “For, like, research.”

Love it when a girl goes scientific 😉

August Landry does not trust people, but she trusts fried chicken.

A woman after my own heart ♥️

“Let’s not end on a sad note. Walk me to the door, look me in the eye like I’ll always mean something to you, and give me a kiss that’ll make me regret letting you go.”

Be careful what you wish for, Lauren 👀

“Women with swords aren’t scary. They’re sexy— all the danger and prowess and finesse with a sharp point. That shouldn’t frighten you. It should turn you on.”

“I don’t see why it has to be an either/or sort of thing.”

Kristie knows what’s up 😏😂

Anybody else having a problem with their reviews not displaying?

Why isn't my latest review appearing? 😑

“If you’re up for it, once your gluteus maximus heals, I’d like for you to use your strapeus averagous on me.”

These new Harry Potter spells are getting insane 🤣

For some reason, my Updates feed only goes back a few short hours before it jumps to posts from 2 weeks ago. It's both odd and annoying 😒

What the heck is going on with Goodreads' servers?? Webpages either load up slowly or not at all... Been noticing it for a few weeks now, but it's especially bad today 😑

I can’t stop thinking about her. Not because I want something that isn’t there, but because something’s there that I don’t want.

Uhuh.

Happy Pride, friends! 😘🏳️‍🌈

Too funny not to share 🤣

When you're trying to be romantic, but she's having none of it 😆

Excerpt from the Acknowledgements:

“Finally, this book would not exist without my wife. Intrigued by my first novel, she began to pester me to write a romance about a 'hot Filipino lesbian' who coincidentally looked like her. She got her wish…sort of.”

Never have I literally LOL'd this early on from a book until now 😂 Way to go, Quinn Ivins' wife! On behalf of sapphic Filipinos, I thank you 😄

“Oh, that’s a good point about a steady girlfriend. That certainly would help. No one likes Shane-lesbians, Carson. It’s not 2003. We want stable, steady, and preferably photogenic.”

Yeah. I want a Bette, Helena, or Marina one myself 😏

“Parmesan lamb chops in a white wine cream sauce is next with a side of garlic fingerling potatoes, paired with the pinot.”

Just discovered a new talent: making myself feel embarrassed even as I read silently alone.

Read that as "fingering" potatoes 🙈

“When you said that you fell for me, did you mean in love?”

This idiot 😭🤣💕

”The thing about us? We’re not two consenting adults with no strings. I could do strings.” Ryan swallowed. “I want strings.”

Ryan, you secret beybi 🥺💕
