In this episode of Cyn’s Workshop, I dive into She Gets the Girl and its companion novella Joy to the Girls, a tender, emotionally grounded sapphic YA romance that explores healing, vulnerability, and the messy process of growing up. These stories balance soft, cozy moments with real emotional weight, giving us characters who feel honest, flawed, and deeply relatable.

We talk about what makes this duology resonate—how the romance builds with care, how the characters confront their fears and insecurities, and why stories like this matter for queer representation in YA. From the swoony moments to the heavier emotional beats, this discussion breaks down why these books linger long after the final page.
