A book promo graphic (made by the incredible Meg for Clio Evans’ ARC & street teams) featuring the two different book covers for Prickly Pair, one discreet with the title & author with a cute cactus and one with the main characters on the front. The graphic is all blue and teal tones, with “currently reading” and “march 31st” at the top, with hearts and a croissant

Screenshot of IG post from my booksta that reads: Currently Reading (ARC): ✨ Prickly Pair by Clio Evans ✨ (Whynot book 3) The synopsis & teasers of this one grabbed my attention and I applied on a whim. I haven’t read the first two Whynot books (it does say they can be read as a standalone) but I am familiar with Clio’s extra spicy writing style and I love a good #WhyChoose story, so I’m excited to dive into the small-town world of Whynot! I know I can count on Clio to not only bring the heat, but also weave together a beautiful poly situation, and this one promises to be MMMF 😍 There was also promise of a sweet little black cat 🐈‍⬛♥️ And we all know I’m a sucker for those! 🌱 SnapCracklePoppies #queerreader #bookstagram #currentlyreading #whychooseromance

Currently Reading (ARC edition):

✨ Prickly Pair by Clio Evans ✨

Small-town romance? ✅
Enemies to lovers AND friends to lovers? ✅
MMMF WhyChoose? ✅
Needless to say I jumped to sign up lol

Cat with a towering TBR pile of books

It’s #Caturday, and my cat, armed with a glare and a paw of authority, has decreed I finish this #TBR pile before the 2026 ball drops. Failure means I’ll spend New Year’s Eve curled in shame beneath a blanket of unread guilt and judgmental purrs.
