2023 book 1

 Cat Sebastian's Daniel Cabot Puts Down Roots

I wanted to start the new year off with something on the lighter side, so a queer Cat Sebastian romance it is! (This is the second in a series, but it works fine as a stand-alone—I didn’t read the first one and I don’t think any of those characters even appeared here.) Anyway, it’s 1970s New York and our heroes are a prickly pediatrician (a Ukrainian immigrant) and a music writer/gardener from a wealthy family. They’re best friends and secretly in love with each other, it’s very cute. I loved them and all the secondary characters and just the vibe of this book in general. I personally could have done with maybe one fewer sex scene, but that’s not really a complaint, I just find sex scenes repetitive after a certain point. A/A-.
