The Bo0ki3

A blog about books. I'll be posting reviews, weekly features, giveaways, author interviews, and other things.

Can't-Wait Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted by Wishing Endings to spotlight and talk about the books we're excited about that we have yet to read. Generally they're books that have yet to be released as well. It's based on Waiting on Wednesday, hosted by the fabulous Jill at Breaking the Spine. Find out more here.

SOMETHING TO TALK ABOUT BY MERYL WILSNER
Paperback, 336 Pages
Contemporary Adult fiction, Romance, Queer
Publisher: Berkley Books
Release Date: May 26th, 2020
Pre-order: Amazon & Barnes and Noble
From Goodreads: Link

A showrunner and her assistant give the world something to talk about when they accidentally fuel a ridiculous rumor in this debut romance.

Hollywood powerhouse Jo is photographed making her assistant Emma laugh on the red carpet, and just like that, the tabloids declare them a couple. The so-called scandal couldn't come at a worse time--threatening Emma's promotion and Jo's new movie.

As the gossip spreads, it starts to affect all areas of their lives. Paparazzi are following them outside the office, coworkers are treating them differently, and a "source" is feeding information to the media. But their only comment is "no comment".

With the launch of Jo's film project fast approaching, the two women begin to spend even more time together, getting along famously. Emma seems to have a sixth sense for knowing what Jo needs. And Jo, known for being aloof and outwardly cold, opens up to Emma in a way neither of them expects. They begin to realize the rumor might not be so off base after all...but is acting on the spark between them worth fanning the gossip flames?

Candy Color Paradox, Vol
Isaku Natsume
Ameiro Paradox #1
Paperback, 208 Pages
Manga, Romance, Boy Love
Publisher: SuBLime
Release Date: March 12th, 2019
Overall Rating: 4/5 

Disclaimer: I received a ARC of this book from the publisher on Edelweiss in exchange for an honest review. All opinions stated on here are my own.

Reporter Onoe and photographer Kaburagi constantly bicker and argue on their stakeouts, but will their antagonistic behavior paradoxically evolve into something sweeter?
Satoshi Onoe, a reporter for a weekly magazine, has a new stakeout partner, and he’s anything but thrilled about it. Photographer Motoharu Kaburagi’s unconventional reporting methods and overall bad attitude are enough to drive Onoe insane. But the more the two work together, the closer they get.
Satoshi Onoe prides himself on his good writing and ethical reporting for the weekly magazine he writes for. But when the stakeout teams are shuffled around, he ends up being paired up with Motoharu Kaburagi, an ill-mannered photographer who’s nothing but trouble. Onoe despises Kaburagi’s haphazard and unethical reporting methods, and the two constantly fight. But as they spend more time together, Kaburagi’s two-faced attitude makes Onoe begin to see him in a different light.

This isn’t one of my usual reads, but I wanted to try something new. I forgot that you are supposed to read it from right to left, instead of left to right. I need you to understand that it took me a few pages to understand why the story was making sense just a little bit. I’m almost embarrassed but I just laughed at myself.

WE SET THE DARK ON FIRE BY TEHLOR KAY MEJIA
We Set the Dark on Fire #1
Hardcover, 384 Pages
Young Adult, LGBT, Fantasy
Publisher: Katherine Tegen Books
Release Date: February 26th 2019
Pre-order: Amazon & Barnes and Noble

From Goodreads: Link

Society wife-in-training Dani has a great awakening after being recruited by rebel spies and falling for her biggest rival. 

At the Medio School for Girls, distinguished young women are trained for one of two roles in their polarized society. Depending on her specialization, a graduate will one day run a husband’s household or raise his children. Both paths promise a life of comfort and luxury, far from the frequent political uprisings of the lower class.

Daniela Vargas is the school’s top student, but her pedigree is a lie. She must keep the truth hidden or be sent back to the fringes of society.

And school couldn’t prepare her for the difficult choices she must make after graduation, especially when she is asked to spy for a resistance group desperately fighting to bring equality to Medio.

Will Dani cling to the privilege her parents fought to win for her, or will she give up everything she’s strived for in pursuit of a free Medio—and a chance at a forbidden love?
