Just three recs... I can do that rather than waiting on the 25-week hold list at the library!

1. Geekerella by Ashley Poston. I know I'm late to the game but I just bought it from Ashley at DragonCon and devoured the entire book on the flight home. They're so sweet! The texting relationship! The feeling of coming home to con! The punny vegan food truck! The disaster child who is too awkward to tell the truth at this point! The stepmother straight from Captain Awkward!

2. Red, White & Royal Blue by Casey McQuiston. Oh gosh, I guess I have a theme going. Listen, sometimes you need those fuzzy tropes. These dumb boys who care a lot about the world and each other. Almost felt like a Merlin fic with the barcodes scratched off, and I mean that sentiment with the utmost amount of love.

3. The Long Way to a Small, Angry Planet by Becky Chambers. I know this book came out in 2014, but I just got around to reading it, and I can't believe I waited so long. If you somehow haven't already read it, don't make my mistakes, don't wait any longer to get to hang out with this family on their little spaceship. It's just like, yes, this is in fact what people are like. All of them. Just hanging out with my imperfect friends, in space.
