Hello Darlings!
This is a new meme I would like to join that Sasha and Amber started on their blog and kindly invited people to join. I’ve been slacking off with reading WLW books lately so now I will be accounting myself for it every two weeks.
WLW Wednesday is a bookish meme created by Sasha and Amber @ Sasha and Amber Read meant to highlight WLW books you’ve read in the past week.
The Legend of Korra: Ruins of the Empire, Part One – Part Three by Michael Dante DiMartino, 4 stars
I’m not screaming enough about Korrasami on this blog. Anyway, if you didn’t know yet, Korra and Asami are the Sun and Moon and all the stars, hung the sky, etc., etc…. I didn’t much care about the redemption ARC that’s playing out here but we got cute Korrasami kisses and Korra and Asami in cute PJs so it’s a win.
The Lady’s Guide to Celestial Mechanics by Olivia Waite, 4,5 stars
I’m a huge historical romance lover recently so reading this was a dream. Especially since we got BOTH art and science here and I was so into those two words merging and seeing how women’s art and women’s science was disregarded by men but in different ways and how those two managed to overcome it and came out winning!! Oh, and the romance was so tender and sexy, sexy, sexy!!
The Tea Dragon Tapestry by Katie O’Neill, 5 stars
CUTE, CUTE, CUTE!! Greta and Minette are cute, Katie O’Niell’s artwork is cute, the tea dragons are cute! Do yourself a favour and read this series — it’s technically for kids but that doesn’t mean it’s not thoughtful and deep.
Gideon the Ninth by Tamsyn Muir, 4,5 stars
STUNNING!! PHENOMENAL!! WHY DIDN’T I READ IT SOONER!! Everyone and their mother knows about lesbian space necromancers, or so I hope. And it’s just as great as advertised!!
- What WLW books have you read this week?
Oooh I really want to read Gideon The Ninth!! Even more so since you loved it! 😊💜
