On My Side
by Katie Duggan
Thank you Katie Duggan for providing me with an advance copy of this book.
On My Side has
• Sunshine x Sunshine (I don’t see often so it’s definitely nice to see)
• A spicy audio content creator🌶️🤭
• Queer rep🏳️🌈
• Autism rep ♾️
• References to Gilmore Girls 📺 (and Star Wars)
• Spice🥵😮💨🤭
• Mental Health rep.🧠💚
• CAT DAD (enough said)
Initial thoughts, it started out slow for me but picked up some shortly after. I love the references to Gilmore Girls, just recently started watching that.
As a spicy audio listener I adore that the MMC, Ren, is a spicy audio creator. That had me intrigued from the start.
I also love and appreciate the autism rep. Especially as someone suspected to be on the spectrum (they won’t give me an actual diagnosis but they say I exhibit behaviors🙂)
I love seeing queer and ace representation in books, As I am grey-ace and bi myself (pun not intended because I’m ironically single… so I’m “bi myself” okay sorry I’ll leave🫣)
The snark and sarcasm from Piper, especially towards the end made me laugh🤣
1 star just for mentioning pickleball (Just Kidding, but high key as a roller derby girl I have beef with pickleball🤣)
Overall slow to start for me but once it picked up it was so good. I love the nerdy aspect, and the pet name “sweetheart” makes me kick my feet and squeal, I love it so much and both being switches🥵😮💨😍🤭
Stars: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Spice: 🌶️🌶️🌶️
