#Whatcha Reading? I'm rereading Tam Lin by Pamela Dean, which I have little memory of other than loving it. (I'm a sucker for any book set at college or boarding school. Miss Pym Disposes, Gaudy Night, Cat Among the Pigeons , Daddy-Long-Legs -- all gems.)
Reading it reminded me (unsurprisingly) of Fire and Hemlock by DWJ, which makes me wonder if there's any non creepy way to retell Tam Lin? But I don't know the ending yet.

@jensilber You might try "Miss Pym Disposes," it's a very un-typical mystery. Most of Tey's books are.
Alas, I did not love Loveless. I actually haven't really liked any of her books except the Heartstopper series, which of course I adore because I'm not a monster.
@willaful I'm half way through "If Only You" by Chloe Liese. Despite my reservation about het romance, people keep recommending Liese's books for good autism rep.
It's fine, so far. I enjoy Liese's writing style, and I think the autistic FMC is written well and interesting.
The MMC, though, is rough for me. He's the "bad boy horny caveman who feels extremely broken but is actually a sweetheart but no one can know". That whole "I can save him from his frozen heart" thing. 🙄
@willaful On reflection:
- Decent autism rep. Not amazing, as it’s not front and center. But nothing anyone could really complain about.
- Good general disability rep. MMC has gluten issues. Side characters with a ton of disabilities.
- Good romance arc. The MMC is a golden retriever & doesn’t do anything too stupid and dudebrosportsguy-ish.
My only complaints are around the male POV, with which allosexuals would probably be fine.
