We are currently focusing on MG and YA fiction. If you have any questions, you can reach us on Twitter or email us at Latinxbkclub at gmail.com.

[close] Welcome to Hawthorn & Aster Readers — where indie romance blooms wild. We’re a cozy corner of Goodreads run by Hawthorn & Aster, a queer, woman-owned marketing and pre-publication studio for indie romance authors. This group is for readers, reviewers, and bookish creators who love discovering new voices in romance — from spicy paranormal adventures to soft contemporary slow burns and everything in between. Here, we: ✨ Chat about our current reads and favorite tropes 💌 Share ARC opportunities and review calls 🌸 Cheer on indie and self-published authors 🔥 Celebrate romance in all its diverse, messy, beautiful forms Whether you’re an ARC reader, an author we’ve worked with, or just someone who wants to gush about fated mates and found family, you’re welcome here. Grab a cup of tea (or wine, we don’t judge), pull up a chair, and make yourself at home.

[close] This group is for all educators actively attempting to be anti-racists in and out of the classroom. It is for all educators attempting to decenter whiteness in classrooms. It is for all educators that value celebrating varying culture and identity! It is for the social studies teachers that teach #hardhistory. It is for the ELA teachers that value #ownvoices novels. In short, it is for all of us seeking to be better advocates, disruptors, and anti-racists.
