I've only just discovered your newsletter, but it's such a fun read that I can safely say: I'm glad you're back writing it! 😜 Aaaand adding Business or Pleasure to my cart as we speak.

I’m so lucky that you did, because that’s what led me to stumble upon your Substack! (And thank you so much for the sweet words 🤗)

helloooooo i am a new subscriber and i've just come on here to say 'The Serpent and The Wings of Night' by Carissa Broadbent is one of my fav romantasy books from this year. vampires but they live in a spooky night-time vampire kingdom, a hunger-games style survival competition, and a HARD-WON victory for the couple in the end. genuinely good and not something that made me want to throw my kindle out the window, like that Jennifer Armentrout series i shall not name
