When Sparks Fly by Kristen Zimmer

Go to review page

When Sparks Fly is an easy, enjoyable read with a likable cast and interesting story. I think most fans of contemporary YA looking for a sapphic read will enjoy this one.

She Drives Me Crazy by Kelly Quindlen

Yesyesyes. This book is c h e e s y, but in the good, heartwarming kind of way. I’m not sure I ever predicted the day we’d get a sapphic YA sports rom-com about a girls’ basketball player and an Indian-American cheerleading captain entering an enemies-to-lovers fake-dating scheme, but I love it so much and need a film adaptation immediately.

These Feathered Flames by Alexandra Overy

Full of courtly intrigue and deathly high-stakes, These Feathered Flames is a powerful tale of sisterhood. I literally cannot wait for the sequel.

Malice by Heather Walter

Go to review page

Viciously enchanting, Malice is an immersive and imaginative retelling of the Sleeping Beauty tale. The aesthetic was everything, and I loved how vivid the storytelling was. Although I was screaming DON’T DO THAT!!! at Alyce the entire last 20% of the book, I can understand why she needed to do what she did in the end from a character arc perspective. I didn't realize this was the first half of a duology until the very end, so you can imagine how shocked I was at the cliffhanger. I think this will be one of those cases where I won't truly know how I feel about the story until I read the final conclusion.
