Also happening tomorrow is #freethebooks2025 where a bunch of spicy romance authors on KU are setting their book for free because fuck censorship. You’ll probably find the most options by searching the hashtag on instagram.

FIGHT BOOK BANNING - FREE E-BOOKS!
anti censorship protest
Today only, check out the hashtag #FREETHEBOOKS2025 and grab tons of spicy, totally tree books trom authors lending their voices and stories to the fight against fascist, spicy book banning.
The new political regime has made it clear that a war against the freedom to choose what we read is upon us. In protest of legislation making romantic and spicy books illegal, we ve decided to #FREETHEBOOKS, because the right to tree speech shouldn't just apply to bigoted ideals. Choosing whether or not to partake of spicy books should be OUR choice, not the government's.
So «STUFFYOURBOOKHOLE and grab some free spicy books, and give the Fascist censorship plans

Hi to everyone who followed me because of the cosmo post. I’m reading a book about priests who turn into veggies and fuck the parish cook. But don’t worry, they’re MAGIC veggies so BV and Yeast Infections aren’t a thing.

So, this happened and I’ll never get over it.

The genre is ... exactly what it sounds like. A (usually) human protagonist falls in love/lust with an object that has gained sentience via curse, magic spell, or other paranormal forces. Cassie Durand, who runs the aptly named TikTok account @UnfortunateReads, has reviewed everything from gingerbread-man smut to garden-gnome smut to glittery purple-Crocs smut. "I have a soft spot for Light Me Up by Sabrina Cross," says Durand, referring to a book that can be loosely described as Pixar-lamp erotica. "The entire story was born out of an unhinged Threads conversation I had with the author."

10. A woman wants to lose her virginity to a demon that's obviously trapped inside a crocheted octopus.
Not real.
Sounds like a book.

I have a lot of hyperpigmentation on my forehead and this did a great job hiding that. I top it with a white ELF setting powder because I’m scared of the sprays.

Coming out of my blah cave for a minute because look at what showed up at my house today! Aren’t they adorable? Not exactly the bootylicious candy corn that inspired Corny but pretty stinking cute.

I am so in love with this ornament sent to me by a friend. It’s fantastic and immediately went on my little rainbow tree.

Okay, I’m working on keeping my writing life and my normal life separate because I write the weird shit but this review has me lol-sobbing right now and I need everyone to see it.

Screaming and kicking my feet. Omg t why was this the cutest story ever?! I am in love. Such good spice. Phin is demon bf goals. I love him. Everything about this. I'm sobbing from my eyes and my kitty. I cannot wait for the next one in this series (please tell me there is more).
Jasmine has two girls and a shitty ex husband. He takes the girls for thanksgiving with his new gf and she is left home alone. Well with her life size teddy bear that houses her demon. Same deal as before, find your soulmate or end up in hell. But what if her demon is her soulmate all along?

Thanks to @vanessanorth.bsky.social over on Threads (which I have decided I will only be using for my pen name), I’ve broken out the pretty notebooks. I’ve carried it around with the intention of writing in it for months. Now it’s a to-do list, thought catcher, and other nonsense.
