Hey, lovelies! Again, I have been so caught up with trying to reorder my life (my daily schedule is currently waking up in the evening and going to bed in the morning because midterms and homework messed me up) that I haven’t had the chance to sit down and go through all the awesome posts in the blogosphere. But it will happen very soon and I cannot wait to read about what happened during the past week!
Sapphic Saturday is coming up on October 17th. This monthly/bi-monthly event is a 24-hour sapphic book readathon hosted by Arin (she/her) and Brittany (she/her). It is an awesome event that I have been wanting to participate for a while, and what better time to start than this month?
I chose three books to fulfill all the reading prompts for this month’s Sapphic Saturday. It is completely doable for me to read them all in one day as long as I don’t stop to write reviews (which I might still end up doing). Wish me luck!
- Thorn by Anna Burke
- Own Voices: sapphic
- enemies-to-lovers book
- magical main character
- YA novel
- spooky book: dark fantasy
- Get It Right (Love at Knockdown #1) by Skye Kilaen
- Own Voices: bi/pan, sapphic
- 2020 release
- novella
- The Vela (The Vela #1) by Yoon Ha Lee, Becky Chambers, Rivers Solomon, S.L. Huang
- Own Voices: queer
- trans author: Yoon Ha Lee
- nonbinary author: Rivers Solomon, S.L. Huang
- BIPOC author: Rivers Solomon

SAME! It’s just so comfy and wonderful to read in pjs (& in bed), especially on cool/cold days. 🥰☺️💕

Can’t wait to take part again this month!! I had no idea that Thorn was sapphic!! 👀 This looks like such a great TBR! I hope you manage to get through it all!!

After posting this comment I now realise that I was confusing this Thorn with another book called Thorn 🤣 but I’m still intrigued by it regardless!

Love your TBR!! We’re taking similar routes–marking off as many prompts as possible with three books 😅 I’m hoping I can pull it off, though it will definitely be difficult lol. So glad you’re joining us 💛 -Brittany

Good luck with the readathon! I wish I could participate but I’m not sure if I’ll be able to because I’m working for most of the event :/
Hsinju @ Hsinju's Lit Log
😢 Thank you, and good luck with work, too! There is always next month or the one after that! 😊

Good luck with the readathon!! Very tempted to join in too, even though I always fail at reading on Saturdays…
Hsinju @ Hsinju's Lit Log
Thank you! I know it’s going to be loads of fun! Aw shucks, but you can always join even if you aren’t reading much during this 24-hour readathon. ☺️

Hmmm there’s no way I can fit anything else into this month’s schedule but this looks so tempting
