Ahh, it's time for more Manga!! I've been doing so much technical reading recently, it's nice to take a bit of a break, and this is such a lovely story to read. 🏙 I'm going to be drawing the winner of the #Kindred giveaway later today so this is your absolute last chance to get on that if you're keen! 🏙 Plug time - if you like what I do and want to see more reviews and queer goodness out in the world, consider supporting me on my patreon. $2 gets you access to a fun lil queer steampunk story, sketches and ramblings that don't fit in on the website 💕 link in the bio or patreon/herebelesbians . . . #ourdreamsatdusk #shimanamitasogare #yuhkikamatani #herebelesbians

If anyone needs me I'll be hiding from the world and reading cute manga... 💕 I'm so behind on reviews and there isn't enough time in the day for me to do everything I want while still looking after myself and making sure I don't get burnt out!!! 😫🔥 I really need to work on making a timetable or something for myself. 💕 Does anyone else struggle if they don't have a structure to their day? I find if I don't have a plan, or I run out of things to do I get depressed and end up staring at my ceiling for hours!! . . . #horimiya #horisanandmiyamurakun #hero #daisikehagiwara #yenpress #wherebelesbians #manga #sliceoflife #romance #cute #instacomic #comicgram

It's been so long since I haven't had a book already lined up by the time I've finished my current one, but I've just finished I Wish You All the Best and I have no idea what to read next! 📚 My library books don't arrive until Monday so what do I read until then? If you have any recs for books you absolutely powered through then leave them below! Or on the Kindred giveaway post for the chance to win a free copy! I'm only your queer internet mum, I can't tell you what to do. . . . #thewellofloneliness #radclyffehall #vintagebooks #herebelesbians

My copy of this arrived yesterday and I'm already a few chapters in and DAMN. My soft child Ben must be protected at all costs. I cannot wait for them to start getting all the love and good things they deserve!! 💛♡💜🖤 Don't forget that I'm doing a giveaway of Kindred, the new Queer #LoveOzYA short story collection atm - see a few posts back for details!! . . . #iwishyouallthebest #masondeaver

I've been looking forward to posting about Kindred as part of the book tour since it arrived in the mail, making it feel real!! If you aren't following this tour you definitely should be - there are interviews, reviews and giveaways aplenty l, and its generally a pretty fun time. For a full review head to my blog (link in the bio) and make sure to check out my previous post to win your own copy of Kindred!! 🏳️‍🌈 Kindred was truly a fantastic read, and as someone who often struggles to finish short story collections I can safely say that the only struggle I had with Kindred was when I had to put it down! Each story raised the bar higher and higher. Even those stories written in a way, or with themes I might not usually read were wielded in such a way as to create a tale so well-crafted that it was hard to dislike it. Kindred has really raised the caliber I expect from multiple-author short story collections. I really cannot describe how absolutely blown away I was by all the stories in this book as they celebrate queer love - romantic, familial and fraternal. 🏳️‍🌈 Synopsis: What does it mean to be queer? What does it mean to be human? In this powerful #LoveOzYA collection, twelve of Australia’s finest writers from the LGBTQ+ community explore the stories of family, friends, lovers and strangers – the connections that form us. This inclusive and intersectional #OwnVoices anthology for teen readers features work from writers of diverse genders, sexualities and identities, including writers who identify as First Nations, people of colour or disabled. With short stories by bestsellers, award winners and newcomers to young adult fiction including Jax Jacki Brown, Claire G Coleman, Michael Earp, Alison Evans, Erin Gough, Benjamin Law, Omar Sakr, Christos Tsiolkas, Ellen van Neerven, Marlee Jane Ward, Jen Wilde and Nevo Zisin. Includes a foreword by anthology editor Michael Earp, resources for queer teens, contributor bios and information about the #LoveOzYA movement. . . . #KindredStories #AusYaBloggers #AusQueerYA #LoveOZYA #OwnVoices #herebelesbians
