Sex in Seattle Series by Eli Easton
Fairly quick reads and overall quite enjoyable! Not mind-blowing, but good, uncomplicated reads before bed.

Trials of Fear Series by Nicki James
Currently on book 4 of this series, and I've generally been enjoying it, though some les than others. The later books seem to be improving though, so I'm hoping thh]at trend continues!

Interesting book talking about the science of sex and all the very weird things that people have experimented with and thought throughout history.

The Starless Sea is on my list! I adored The Night Circus, so I have high hopes for it. I'm currently reading Flight of Magpies by KJ Charles, The Obelisk Gate by NK Jemisin, and Sour Heart by Jenny Zhang. In terms of fic, I'm reading The Nobility of Ascent, too!

i read bonk a few years ago and absolutely loved it! mary roach has a wonderful way of writing, her work is so accessible and humorous. it took me a bit longer to read bonk than it normally would because i kept stopping to screenshot her hilarious anecdotes and share them on twitter!

Yes, it was great! I've already got several of her other books marked to read later!
