Thick of Love by Danielle Marcus
2.0
this book feels like it’s from the nineties or early aughts but in a bad way. the language and tropes are dated (ableist, heteronormative, marriage-centered). no LGBT representation at all. the cover art is lovely, i’m just surprised this manuscript made it to shelves as is.
