Spear
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ – Already loved the book then I listened to it and loved it more then I looked at her site and I was lost.

The Girls Like Girls Trifecta
Hayley Kiyoko delivers song, video, and book. Is there some EGOT equivalent for this?

That Summer Feeling
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ – This book wrecks me every time I read it. In a good way? You’ll find it charming and lovely and funny and swoony, I promise.
