Making a romance novel LGBTQIA+ and inclusive makes me love it so much more! The plot here was light and fluffy with a touch of magical realism. A great palette cleanser between heavier stuff. A central theme here was finding community, both in physical spaces and in the people with which you surround yourself. I now want to find a very gay bakery to support. Also A+ for including asexual/aromantic and poly characters, which are even less represented in the genre!
