Four students. One horrific crime.
At Saint Ursula, guilt doesn’t fade. It festers.

Sweet potatoes was the first related food I thought of! (Thanks to sensitive doggy digestive systems.) Anyway, have some chronic illness time!

Mama Cass came in a few minutes later with bowl of mashed sweet potatoes. She looked at Lelia as she set it down in front of her. “The sugar, the salt, or the potassium?” she asked. Lelia looked up at her, confused. That was a very specific question. Was Mama Cass familiar with dysautonomia?

Cassia lives with chronic pain, but the truth is deeper. Her magic was never gone, only caged. Now, as rival fae courts close in, she must choose who to become. One sees her power. The other sees her pain. Only one man sees both and stays.

Trying to write “on brand” when your brand is ✨trauma and yearning✨ no matter the genre.

Is it an identity crisis or just range? 🫠

I finished It's All In Your Head by @nordqvistbooks.bsky.social last night. It's such a sweet story with amazing disability & chronic illness rep.

You can read my full review over on goodreads and The Storygraph.

#BookReview #BookLover #DisabilityRep #ChronicIllnessRep
A graphic showing the book cover for It's All In Yoir Head by Sabina Nordqvist which has a purple background and illustrations of a male character with a cane and a female character resting against the title. There are 5 purple stars underneath it as a rating, and a white text box with the following text: it was beyond amazing to read a book where both the main characters are disabled. The disability and chronic illness rep in this book is perfect. So much is included. But beyond all of that, this is just such a sweet (and sexy) fake dating to true romance novel. Skylar and Pike are perfect for each other. All in all this was an incredible book and is immediately going into my "to be read again (and again)" pile.

It was midnight. I was tired and more than a little emotional.
But Dying Light was out.
A book that started as heartbreak and healing was finally in readers’ hands.
And even though I was exhausted, I felt exactly where I was meant to be.

There’s a song in my book—one I wrote before I even finished the story. It became the heart of Dying Light.
Out in two days.
🌊 Original lyrics, from me to you.
