My favorite read of the month is the SFF novelette by Kai Ashante Wilson, The Devil in America. My favorite full-length novels from this list are Entreat Me and Radiance (Wraith Kings, #1) by Grace Draven, both fantasy romances, and the gay fiction debut novel by Michael Harwood, The Manservant. Lots of B's and C's.

ReplyDeleteLooks like Feb was a slightly mixed month reading-wise for you. I used to really like Summer Devon's M/M historicals (I think she co-wrote them with Bonnie Dee?) but haven't really read the more recent ones. I need to read the Grace Draven books still...
Li, this past weekend it finally began to warm up, but March was cooold too.
DeleteI think you'll enjoy The Gentleman and The Lamplighter by Devon. It's a nice read, in my opinion, just a bit too short. And, I'm really enjoying the Draven books so far. I have Master of Crows slated for April.
