#WhatchaReading ? I’m halfway through Behind These Doors, a queer historical (with some polyamory) involving class issues and women’s suffrage. One main character is a “nob,” the other a reporter who was raised “above his station” and feels like neither fish nor fowl. It was edited by K.J. Charles so you know it’s good. :-)
On KU, supposed to be part of a series but I think there’s only the one so far.

@willaful @romancelandia @romancebooks Started listening to Flor’s Fiasco by Ruby Dixon, I’ve been waiting for this on audio forever so I can finally finish Icehome series. Exactly what I was expecting so far, fun and steamy.
@willaful @romancelandia @romancebooks I was reading an historical m/f regency but then I paused for Freya Marske’s A Marvellous Light and Natasha Pulley’s The Mars House in quick succession, and now I’m having trouble finding any other fiction good enough. I’ve had to switch to non-fiction for a bit 😊
@wendypalmer Ah, the good book hangover! A Marvellous Light is so satisfying! I don’t know The Mars House, will have to put it on the TBR.
@willaful @romancelandia @romancebooks “the good book hangover” - yes! That’s exactly what it is, I’ll have to remember that phrase 😊
I adored The Mars House but—assuming you’ve not read Natasha Pulley before—might be better to start with one of her earlier books. She’s previously written literary historicals with a mild fantastic element and understated gay pining, whereas the Mars House is science-fiction, also with the understated gay pining, but also all in on her tendency to zigzag all over moral grey areas. I love her, she’s my favourite author, but she’s not traditional romance genre as such 🤷♀️
@wendypalmer Good to know, thanks!
