It's been a while since I've posted about book recommendations so I created one, specifically for June ✨️ Creating this queer graphic novel and maga list makes me want to reread them despite having a massive tbr this month already 😆

Anyway, I call this list "𝚛𝚎𝚊𝚍 𝚝𝚑𝚎𝚖 𝚒𝚏 𝚢𝚘𝚞 𝚠𝚊𝚗𝚝 𝚜𝚘𝚖𝚎𝚝𝚑𝚒𝚗𝚐 𝚎𝚡𝚌𝚒𝚝𝚒𝚗𝚐, 𝚏𝚞𝚗, 𝚊𝚗𝚐𝚜𝚝𝚢, 𝚏𝚛𝚞𝚜𝚝𝚛𝚊𝚝𝚒𝚗𝚐, 𝚌𝚞𝚝𝚎, 𝚑𝚎𝚊𝚛𝚝𝚏𝚎𝚕𝚝, 𝚏𝚞𝚕𝚏𝚒𝚕𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚐 𝚊𝚗𝚍 𝚜𝚘𝚖𝚎𝚝𝚑𝚒𝚗𝚐 𝚝𝚑𝚊𝚝 𝚠𝚒𝚕𝚕 𝚜𝚝𝚒𝚌𝚔 𝚘𝚗 𝚢𝚘𝚞 𝚏𝚘𝚛 𝚊 𝚕𝚘𝚗𝚐 𝚝𝚒𝚖𝚎🤚🏽."

Not gonna lie. That was what I felt when reading these mangas and graphic novels ♥️

I don't see them that much here on booksta and thought, why not post about these gems ✨️ I would say these are some of my top tier list that I have yet to see here on booksta so I'm sharing these here ✨️

P.S. Had these checked, all are clean 👌

💬 Happy Tuesday aka New Release Day! Are you picking up any new releases today? 🤎📖 Happy Release Day to This Cursed Crown by @allywritesandstuff! Thank you to @inkyardpress for gifting me copies of these books! 🤎🫶🏻 Outsiders are always given a choice: the Forest or the lake. Either way, they're never heard from again. Leelo has spent her entire life on Endla, coexisting with the bloodthirsty Forest and respecting the poisonous lake that protects her island from outsiders who seek to destroy it. But as much as Leelo cares for her community, she struggles to accept that her younger brother will be exiled by his next birthday, unless he gains the magic of enchanted song so vital to Endla. When Leelo sees a young outsider on the verge of drowning in the lake, she knows exactly what she's supposed to do. But in a moment that will change everything, Leelo betrays her family, her best friend, and Endla by making an unthinkable choice. Discovery could lead to devastating consequences for both Leelo and the outsider, Jaren, but as they grow closer, Leelo realizes that not all danger comes from beyond the lake—and they can only survive if Leelo is willing to question the very fabric of her society, her people, and herself. . . . h a s h t a g s : #thiscursedcrown #thesefeatheredflames #alexandraovery #inkyardpress #storygramtours #bookstagram #bookphotography #bookphoto #flatlay #flatlaytoday #flatlayphotography #igreads #goodreads #instabook #bookish #booksbooksbooks #fantasybooks https://www.instagram.com/p/Cl1MwsoOUBk/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

It took me a while to finish this because this novel was stressing me– NOT IN A BAD WAY BUT IN A GOOD WAY.

Going forward, the writing is brilliant. It did really well in drawing my attention and curiosity from the very start until the end. I was glad that the writing really did fit the story, I think that’s one of the main reasons I enjoyed this book very much.

The world building was intricate. I would say the author did well in introducing it in the novel, I quite enjoy it. The world building did really feel medieval to me and perhaps a little bit of the GoT atmosphere. I would definitely love to see more of it in the 2nd book. Although I’m quite waiting for the Dragon and Vampire concept to be shown more, it wasn’t that much here, so I hope the 2nd novel will exercise these more.

The plot was very much politial at the beginning. However, it did waned and went towards the character arc route, in my opinion, in like 60%, which I didn’t have a problem considering the characters were really likeable. I was really rooting for them all. Still, it was politically intrigued to me in some ways and more building of the storyline.

I would say I was more attached to the characters, especially Rhella and Virgil. Their dynamics and chemistry are undeniable. They’re giving me so much of a strong couple and ride or die couple vibes, and strangely, the Percy and Annabeth, I don’t know why, honestly. I’m definitely looking forward to the developments of this pairing.

Asriel, on the other hand, I was rooting for him to be honest, but after that scheme of his, I was upset. I was expecting so much of him, but I would say I’m disappointed with his character.

There are quite a few suspicious characters, in my opinion. I would say let’s see how it goes in the next instalment.

The parts towards the ending on the hand— I’m not quite sure how I should feel about it, I’m suspicious? It was abrupt to me and felt anticlimactic. That being said, let’s see how it would go after that part in the next instalment.

Overall, this was a solid introduction for the series. I’m really rooting for this and excited for the events, especially Rhaella, Virgil, Asriel, and the rest of the characters’ development in the next instalment ♡

If you like these, you’ll need to check this novel ♡

◇ political intrigue

◇ world building

◇ well written characters

◇ queer cast

◇ royals

◇ fantasy elements (dragons, prophecy, vampire, and the likes)

◇ strong and potentially ride and die couple

◇

Thank you, author, for the e-arc opportunity, I definitely had fun in this novel. I’m super excited and can not wait for the 2nd instalment ♡

P.S. I made an honest mistake on my tbr post and had this book under sapphic, but the right category would be queer for the characters 🔖
