BOOK REVIEW: Redwood and Ponytail

This book was beautiful in so many ways, and at times really hurt my heart with how good it was. Huge thanks to Abrams Publishing for sending me an early readers copy to read and review! I am, of course, always excited to read new LGBT+ fiction, so to read this book about two girls…

Well…Maz Evans has done it again! Just when I thought I had the feels trip of a lifetime in Simply The Quest, the third book in the series Beyond The Odyssey comes in with the strength of Zeus and punches me right in the feels. So yeah, excuse me while I just nip off to cry into the…
