[Book Review] Of Fire and Stars by Audrey Coulthurst


4.5 STARS 

Of Fire and Stars takes place in Mynaria, a fantasy world where Princess Dennaleia is sent to live with her betrothed, Prince Thandilimon, in order to prepare for their wedding. Their marriage will seal the alliance between Mynaria and her homeland, protecting her people from other hostile lands. Dennaleia has a secret she has been pushing deep inside her, and it's becoming harder and harder to hide it. Thandilimon's sister Amaranthine, who prefers to be called Mare, teaches Dennaleia how to ride a horse for the ceremony. What complicates Dennaleia's situation even more is when she starts to develop feelings for Mare.

[Book Review] Ash by Malinda Lo



3.5 STARS

Ash by Malinda Lo is a Cinderella retelling with a lesbian romance instead of the heterosexual romance normally portrayed in either the original stories or any retellings of the story. I heard about this book by the BookTuber Riley Marie who described it as a fairy tale story she would have loved when she was younger because she would have loved seeing a romance between two women when she was still learning about her own sexuality. Riley's raving for this book had me interested in the book because of a few reasons.
