#TBRuary Day 6: Love is Love

Choose a book from your TBR that's by or about someone with a different sexual orientation than you. The book does NOT have to actually feature any romance, and ace/aro authors and characters definitely count!

WATCH — @timmiller.bsky.social : “Did anybody NOT hang out with Jeffrey Epstein? It’s disgusting how many names are in this, and how long they were emailing him even after it was known he was a pedophile.”
