Every Step She Takes is out today! Thank you to the publisher for the ARC. 

I really enjoyed this tender sapphic romance!

It’s a coming of age story about a woman, Sadie, who is in her mid 30s and still discovering who she is and what she wants. When the opportunity to have an adventure in Portugal & Spain arises, she jumps at the chance to escape her everyday life.

I really enjoyed both the main characters – Sadie, who is still figuring out why she never hits it off with the men she dates, who feels trapped in a life she never asked for, who was brave enough to try something new and scary all by herself. Mal, who is much further along in her queer journey but who is just as unsettled and unsure in other ways. They were both very likeable & very easy to root for. I loved how they helped each other in different ways, and I enjoyed their journeys, both physical and emotional.

The setting of the Camino was so fun and interesting to read about, and I enjoyed how the queer tour group they’re with became a found family (even if I did struggle to keep all the secondary characters straight in my head).

It’s never too late to figure out who you really are, and coming of age can happen at any time. I definitely recommend this one!
