@amaliehoward.bsky.social might be one of my favorite people after sitting on a panel called The Art of Antagonist Chemistry (SFF Version) where she proclaimed "I feel like I'm the horniest person on this panel".

She loaded me down with goodies from all of her books including the next ARC. 🥹❤️

I almost cried when I met @amaliehoward.bsky.social and again when she said she still had an ARC of book 2 available because IT'S WHY CHOOSE AND I'M RATTLING AROUND WANTING TO READ IT RIGHT NOW.

Omg THANK YOU so much!! This means so much to me, especially as a bipoc writer. I loved all your recs! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽😍😍😍

The cover of Amalie Howard's "The Worst Duke in London". Its illustrated cover features a bright green background with the heroine wearing a purple dress, sitting in a red chair. Sitting on the arm of the chair is the hero dressed in a jacket, breeches and boots. Both characters have a cat or dog climbing on them.

I recently finished @amaliehoward.bsky.social's The Worst Duke in London and I loved it so much. I was so happy for them, and just like in 10 Things I Hate About You that the villain got what he deserved! I can't wait to learn what Briar's rom-com connection is and to read her story!

So glad you enjoyed!!! 🥹💚😍

So happy you enjoyed!! 🥰
