Fun fact: Today is also a great day to support your indie bookshop. (And not just because a certain online mega-retailer is having its annual sale, but because indie bookshops need our support all year long to thrive.)

Let me read my dragon smut in peace, Bethany! But seriously, Jessi doesn't have that classic literature dog in them. Every time someone says, "OMG YOU GOTTA READ (INSERT CLASSIC TITLE HERE)?!?!" Jessi loses a shred of their sanity. Classic lit reimaginings with queer characters, on the other hand?!
