Hello Bindery Babes!! I am so excited for Pride this year -- Sapph-Lit and grotto in NYC have some incredible events planned and I just can't wait for it to be warm and read at the beach, the pool, on the porch and in my yard.

Summer to me is always when I read the most books -- there's so much sapphic romance and contemporary lit fic to get to! -- and for this upcoming Pride month Sapph-Lit has a fiction pick slotted for June.

Here are all of the books that are on my radar -- What is standing out to you? Is there a title that's not here you think we should vote on? Let me know in the comments!

As always, thank you so much for your support Bindery Babes!! xx Nina

I AM SO EXCITED TO SHARE THESE WITH YOU!!!!!

After we had our first cover design meeting for book 2 aka CREATIVE DIFFERENCES by Annabel Paulsen and Lydia Wang last month, I wasn't expecting the first round of sketches to come back so soon. These are super rough sketches to give us an idea of movement, poses, composition, etc! I'll share the next version once our feedback is taken into account :)

ALSO SO EXCITING: We are so lucky to get to work with the artist that everyone loved in the comments: Dana Lédl <3 Which of these 4 versions is your favorite? Which do you think Annabel, Lydia and I like best?

DO NOT SHARE THIS WITH ANYONE PLEASE THIS IS JUST FOR US CHICKENS!!!!

xx Nina
