June Reading Wrap-Up
I ended up reading 10 books this month. Definitely more than I would have expected if you asked me on June 1st. It does help that I listened to four audiobooks over the course of as many days.
Every book I read this month (except The Way of the Househusband) was queer. I read queer year round, but I always pay special attention to make sure my #PrideMonth reads are especially queer.
What was your favorite book this month?
Books read:
• Mooncakes by Suzanne Walker and Wendy Xu
• The Way of the Househusband vol 8 by Kousuke Oono
• Legends & Lattes by Travis Baldree
• Stealing a Thief’s Heart by C.L. Cattano
• The Devouring Wolf by Natalie C. Parker
• The Princess and the Grilled Cheese by Deya Muniz
• The Witch King by H.E. Edgmon (reread)
• The Fae Keeper by H.E. Edgmon
• My Dear Henry by Kalynn Bayron
• Fake Dates and Mooncakes by Sher Lee

Since I pretty much learned the story of the Manson Family through the fictional novel, The Girls by Emma Cline, every time I come across an adaptation (Manson's Lost Girls, The Haunting of Sharon Tate) or photos/GIFs/clips of them, I can't help but think back on all those passages about how beautiful the mysterious Suzanne Parker is whenever I see Susan Atkins. (The main character, Evie Boyd, clearly pines after Suzanne throughout the book, desperate to get closer to her; although she is horrified by the crimes Suzanne and the others eventually commit, expressing regret having ever met them). And that includes Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, in which Atkins is depicted being reduced to a bloodied, screaming, torched mess.

The Passing of Three Beauties
I stopped doing “bundled” biographical posts a very long time ago, but this week three Hollywood actresses passed away within days of each other, adding up to a theme of sorts. It’s possible I may have dedicated individual posts to any of the three of them eventually, but taken in sum these deaths amount to a serial event, though we ourselves impose the construction. All three ladies were upwards…

I can't believe Theo James dared to do another period romance after leaving Sanditon.
Ladies, when do we riot?

“Looking for loaves, loves, and laughter? Do I have the books for you! Culinary romances feed the stomach and soul with their delicious mix of hot food and even hotter relationships. You come to them to read about the trials and tribulations of the restaurant industry. From opening bakeries and restaurants to maintaining them, making money and food is objectively hard. Add in the complications of celebrity chefs, reality baking competitions, and other famous employees and you have a blend of messy but delectable romances. After all, food is the gateway to the soul.
Now, culinary romances are not a new invention. I have, however, noticed an uptick in the number of culinary romances published, and I am not alone. Bettina Makalintal’s Eater article even noted, “Move over, bodice rippers. It’s all about apron tuggers now.” I cannot argue with her point that there are more and more culinary romances hitting the shelves, and many of them are queer or racially diverse.
Culinary romances give authors the ability to showcase food culture and the ways food is sold to the public. From celebrity chefs, to cooking contestants, to chefs that run businesses, part of a character’s success relies on the way they market themselves and their food to their intended customers or audience. Then throw cultural identities and work-love life balance into the mix and you have yourself a compelling romance. Given the size of the sub-genre, I only included a selection that are sure to leave you hungry for more.”
