I read primarily queer books. I love everything from basic mlm romances to classic literature to contemporary fiction. I’m slowly trying to add more non-fiction and challenging subject matter, but I don’t need any additional dystopia in my life. My spice tolerance fluctuates, so sometimes I want all the spice and sometimes I can skim over it.

Generally really good, but a tough read. The MC’s romantic crush on the dying uncle is uncomfortable to read but realistic for someone who might be unsure about their sexuality, esp allo v. ace to put their crush on a “safe” person. I can’t tell if it’s only character perception, but it seems like Finn and Toby have no existence outside of June after they moved to NYC. Were they both shut ins? It doesn’t seem like it.

A poisoned chocolate. A stolen dress. An elusive catburglar. Drag’s not just dramatic, it’s deadly. …
I had a great time following Misty Divine as she plowed her way through solving the murder of her friend and mentor, Lady Lady. Hotel administrator by day and cabaret performer by night. It definitely has first novel energy. Looking back, there were a couple things I wish were done differently by the character and the author, but I was enthralled as I turned page after page.
It was an also a good showcase of the struggles of living an authentic life from both outside forces and the famed inner saboteurs. It may open the eyes if those who only experience drag via tv and the occasional brunch.
I look forward to the next book to see the growth of both the author and Misty’s investigative skills.
