Today I officially decided to join next month’s F/F February readathon! I am so excited for this, first of all I have a lot of F/F books I own and especially a lot of novellas that were free at some point and I just never get to them, so this is going to be my chance to read some of them. And then any even that celebrates not only F/F relationships but sapphic books in general (like the announcement post explains) obviously is going to own my whole heart.
I decided to just focus mostly on what I already own so I am not joining the challenges, although some of these books definitely meet some of them.
If you want to join but don’t know what to read, make sure to read Charlotte’s announcement that also has A LOT of awesome recs, divided both by genre and by readathon challenges! I also have F/F recommendation posts here and here so make sure to check them out if you need inspiration for joining in on the fun.
I will try not to read anything else, but I am in the middle of my tgcf reread (that’s like, probably 2000+ pages if it was a physical book) and I don’t want to pause it for a whole month, so I will also be reading that although it’s not f/f.
I am sharing here a tentative TBR where I basically just dumped all the books I found in my kindle/audible/shelves that meet the criteria for the challenge and that I think I might read. I definitely know I won’t be able to read all of them but that’s okay! The titles in bold are the ones I definitely count on reading, the other ones are options I’m giving myself in case I finish the ones I want to get to first.

Thank you! I’m very curious about it myself, it was free on audible for a while so I decided to grab it. Hope it won’t disappoint!

Good luck! I don’t have a set TBR but I’m joining as well 🙂 Maybe I’ll get to the Deadline finally! Or pick up the Sunstone as well.

Good luck to you too!! I read the first two volumes of Sunstone in January and they’re great, I really didn’t expect to like it so much! I hope you like it if you pick it up 🙂
