Blessed by the Cupid Distribution System by Robin Jo Margaret
Worldbuilding: Piqued curiosity
Plot: Mostly clear Characters: Some more thought out than others
Storytelling: Balanced
Immersion: Satisfying, fulfilling experience Emotional Response: Engaging
Thought Provoking: New ideas came up
Cover: Matches the story well Content Warnings: Mental health (anxiety and depression) This was a short but sweet story that starts with Iris feeling really sad about not having a Valentine's. A simple wish turned into a day that was full of firsts that ended in an HFN with a thoughtful gift to keep the budding love open. Reviewed on |

Cupid Calling by Viano Oniomoh
Worldbuilding: Piqued curiosity
Plot: Mostly clear Characters: Some more thought out than others
Storytelling: Balanced
Immersion: Satisfying, fulfilling experience Emotional Response: Engaging
Thought Provoking: New ideas came up
Cover: Adequately represents the story I was worried the dating game aspect would have caused unnecessary drama for these two, but it was the shared experience of figuring out what they needed in a relationship was the main focus. It was a slow burn with a lot of character growth for these queer Black men. Reviewed on |
