Enum & Valerie commented on What the River Knows by Isabel Ibañez
Is this really a romance plot between Inez and WHITFORD??? The alcoholic who's locking her up all the time, and threatening strangers with violence? Are the straights okay???
@vivavaleria@eldritch.cafe on the mammooth site. Reading mostly wlw rom-coms, with the occasional exceptions. I try to rotate languages, but it isn't really easy to find queer romance books in other languages than English. Reviews and comments usually in the same language as the book.

— Revenge Game by Jordyn Taylor (Page 162)
She just had AP Macroeconomics in the building next door, and before that, Accounting. Her goal, she says, is to learn everything there is to know about capitalism so she can dismantle it someday. "The mansplaining," Jess replies, "is going to be the death of me."
[..]. "Gross domestic product", she answers. "Much like Mr Mansplainer himself"

Great story in a well-engineered universe with so many little aspects. If you like gay communist vampire revolutionaries schemeing their ways to overthrow the conservative vampires elites, this book is for you.
One thing I love about this book is Taylor's and Evangeline's enemies-with-benefits relationship. Like hatefucking your bully and nemesis every week is a totally normal thing that people just do. And no, it's not an enemies-to-lovers plot.
This had knocked my socks off; I had no more socks left to knock.
— Youngblood by Sasha Laurens (Page 274)
Both our heads turned in time to see the swish of long hair as a girl ran across the residential quad and tackled someone to the ground with a hug. Giggles! Smiles! Girls being girls! "Imagine living with that," I said.
— Youngblood by Sasha Laurens (Page 26 - 27)
Sure, hugs and girls are sooooo bad
