GUILTY PLEASURE — This is an immersive historical romance that is great for people who need a bit of escapism. Cora and Manuela are both queer women, but its 1899 so being openly queer is not an option. Still, there’s a large cast of queer folks, so it gives readers a sense that even if being queer in this period was a “guilty pleasure,” it probably shouldn’t have been so “Guilty.”
