Spice trader Cinnamon’s quiet life is turned upside down when she ends up on a quest with a fiery demon, in this irreverently quirky rom-com fantasy that is sweet, steamy, and funny as hell.

All she wanted to do was live her life in peace—maybe get a cat, expand the family spice farm. Really, anything that didn’t involve going on an adventure where an orc might rip her face off. But they say the goddess has favorites, and if so, Cin is clearly not one of them.

After Cin saves the demon Fallon in a wine-drunk stupor, Fallon reveals that all he really wants to do is kill an evil witch enslaving his people. And who can blame him? But now he’s dragging Cinnamon along for the ride whether she likes it or not. On the bright side, at least he keeps burning off his shirt.…

6-5-4-3-2-1

Some books I’ve read in the last couple years that I rated 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, and 1 stars!

It was SO hard to narrow down the 5 stars because there were sooooo many incredible books I wanted to include but I kept it to six—just know that it pained me greatly to do so.

We NEED to talk about the Hot Girls Read situation

As someone with a master’s in postcolonial literature, I can confirm that this is some colonizer 💩

I usually watch book drama from afar but this is one that truly baffles me. Some of my favorite takes so far have come from @tomesandtextiles @fromthemixedupdesk and @mrs.yang_reads but just know I’m engaging with every picture, video, and think piece that crosses my feed. And yes, she’s blocked

\ \ Hey loves!\ \ We are starting a series called Flaunt It Friday. A day where I shout out and spotlight author and upcoming releases that I am looking forward to!\ \ We are starting out with one of my FAVORITE authors, Kimberly Lemming.\ \ If you found yourself on Booktok around 2021 like I did, you were also served an influx of books and genres, probably ones that you have never encountered before. While monster romance was not out of my comfort zone, I had only dipped my toes into vampire and shifter romances, aka romances where it was centered around the more human attributes and the fact that they were a monster was second nature. I also never saw books that were unabashedly black female center within Monster romances and romance as a whole. When I was served one fine morning a video of a content creator who was talking about this book (that would soon become my whole personality) I did not know that my life would change.\ \ That Time I Got Drunk and Saved A Demon.\ \ What in the world was this title? The art was also cartoonish in a way that felt fun and lighthearted, and the promise of spice, all of those factors had me saving that video to add it to my TBR pile. Then one book became two. Two became getting an arc for the third, and it all culminated into me crafting a space that is just Kimberly Lemming dedicated.\ \ Kimberly has a way of bringing characters to life that feel so real. Like I could walk down the road and encounter Brie or Cinn and hang out. They are relatable in a way that feeds to the soft/badass black girl experience, one that seems to be lacking in the publishing world. All crafted in a world that, while purely fantasy, the humor and the romance certainly feel real.\ \ So, I hope I can persuade you to read any and all the books by Kimberly Lemming. I for one am also excited for the next release in her Cosmic Chaos series " I Punched an Alien and Now We're in Couples Therapy" set to be release in August of this year! By the title alone, I think this one is also going right to the Kimberly shrine.\ \ I adore these titles so much!](https://brilefae.binderybooks.com/item/yJVavSMbYe5razl4ZPAa/)

\ \ If you've been wondering where I've been, my usual response is: reading, working, worrying, writing, gaming, and probably watching tv. This time, there's a twist: I went to a Pride festival for the very first time. You might even say it was "Baby's First Pride!" I had a great time and felt super affirmed in that space so I will be going to one more Pride event this weekend to acquire more good vibes.\ \ \ \ Of course, I've also been reading books on my tbr (physical & virtual). Aren't y'all proud?! Earlier this month, inspiration struck and I finally finished a chapter of the murder mystery book I'm working on where the Abuela solves crimes. I plotted out 25 chapters and also fleshed out the characters more, which felt amazing!\ \ \ \ Despite all of this, my mind has still been on Palestine and the rest of the train wreck that has been playing out in US news like the ICE raids, offenses against libraries, protests, and more. If you are able, please donate to this campaign: https://gofund.me/aefe13af\\ \ \ \ Speaking of train wrecks, I've also been watching Love Island USA because sometimes you need to escape into someone else's drama for a minute. Invasion and Apothecary Diaries have also been great distractions.\ \ \ \ My favorite updates have been these awesome ARCs and Pre-Orders that arrived over the past few weeks. I pre-ordered were:\ \

What have I been doing?!

I Say No to Book Buying Bans

I buy a lot of books, but do I read a lot of books? Let’s find out together!

Also, this is satire friends, I only buy books that I’m interested in reading. It may take me awhile to get to them, but I do eventually read them or I pass them off to friends/family/little free library if I decide I’ve changed my mind.
