It’s about time roommates Alejandro and Kenny get married. Or at least, that’s what all their close friends and family think when they announce their engagement. The kicker? The two are faking their whole relationship so Alejandro can get a green card. But if Han was going to marry anyone, it would be his ride or die since second grade. Han has never been able to put down roots, and the only one who truly breaks through his walls is Kenny. Sweet, sensitive Kenny is newly single, and what better distraction from his soul-sucking relationship than proposing marriage to Han? Kenny can’t think of anything more fun than spending his life with his best friend, even if it’s just for a piece of paper. But as Kenny keeps up the charade, he’s soon struggling to resist their sizzling chemistry. The line between fact and fiction begins to blur the closer they get to their wedding date. With all eyes on Han and Kenny—including a meddling ex and immigration officers—will these two bros make it down the altar for real?

I’ve got 9 Queer BIPOC Books for y’all to enjoy.](https://bookish-afrolatina.binderybooks.com/item/S2Owrp1edeDiCaanvG6n/) Pride Month ain’t over yet! I’ve got 9 Queer BIPOC Books for y’all to enjoy. These Vengeful Gods by Gabe Cole Novoa (Queer YA Fantasy) In a world bound by violence, a teen descended from the god of Death must keep their true identity a secret as they fight their way through a gladiator-style competition towards victory and rebellion against the gods who murdered their family. The Broposal by Sonora Reyes (Gay NA Romance) A queer romance about lifelong best friends entering a marriage of convenience to avoid the looming shadow of deportation. I really enjoyed this book! It’s got depth, sweetness, drama, & spice. Heat and Run by Adriana Herrera (Sapphic Romance Novella) Heat and Run is a steamy sapphic omegaverse novella where insatiable lust meets the magic of the holiday season. Omega Melina thought she’d spend the chaos of her 1st heat cycle on an Tribarian island retreat, until she crashes, literally, into the mountain lodge of an irresistible alpha the broody & mysterious Dhanyaris. The River Has Roots by Amal El-Mohtar (Queer Romantasy Novella) Follow the river Liss to the small town of Thistleford, on the edge of Faerie, and meet two sisters who cannot be separated, even in death. Loving Safoa by Liza Wemakor (Sapphic Paranormal Romance) When schoolteacher Cynthia gets a tattoo at a block party in 1991 Flatbush, she doesn’t realize she’s embarking on a life-changing romance w/ an immortal Ghanaian vampire. This tale spans time & defies the utopian/dystopian binary. The Ballad of Jacquotte Delahaye by Briony Cameron (Sapphic Historical Fiction) In the tumultuous town of Yáquimo, Jacquotte Delahaye is a shipwright, but her ambitions are bound by the confines of her self-seeking father. When her way of life is threatened, she is forced to flee her home & become a pirate w/ a motley crew of refugees, including the mysterious Teresa.

I’ve never actually read the Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, so I went into this book blind, but I still found it captivating. Jim’s code-switching, planning, dream conversations, & drive are perfect for combatting the frequent depersonalization of enslaved folks. The pacing was steady & the ending was cathartic for me. I don’t know what else to say w/out giving spoilers!!! The Broposal by Sonora Reyes This book tore me apart & then put me back together again. I love this author’s writing & knew this would be a good book but I was a bit apprehensive to read it. Han & Kenny’s friendship is so pure & I loved their flirtatious scenes together. As heartbreaking as some of the story was, I am so happy w/ how it ended. Reyes covers some incredibly heavy topics with care. The characters felt real to me. Heads up, this story contains a few explicit scenes, so don’t be surprised when they sneak up! Please read this book y’all. The Color of a Lie by Kim Johnson The Color of a Lie is a fantastic book for putting readers into the shoes of Black folks in the Civil Rights era. A lot of folks don’t realize that northern cities were also violent towards Black folks & how that played into the creation of the suburbs of America. I love the way the author included details like the instructional video in Levittown, students reading 1984, & connected the story to historical events. Calvin’s struggle w/passing for white hit close to home for me because my great-grandfather had to pass in order to get work in Philly. I don’t think people realize how painful that experience is & that it left folks with consistent anxiety. I recommend this book to anyone from the age of 12 (10/11 if your child has good comprehension & seems to be emotionally mature enough to handle it) & up.If you want to learn more about racial passing and depictions of it in media, check out my content & research here: https://www.bookishafrolatina.com/passing \[ID: in comments\] #BookReviews * * * 3 books 1 [Bookish AfroLatina's Library\\ \\ Gabby\\ \\ • Mar 7 2025](https://bookish-afrolatina.binderybooks.com/) Join for free [Bookish AfroLatina's February Reading Wrap-Up](https://bookish-afrolatina.binderybooks.com/item/U40xLfCtmFuNabb80060/) It's time for my February Reading Wrap-Up!
