Meet Cute Club by Jack Harbon

February 5, 2022 by faintingviolet 3 Comments

Last week the Twitter Discourse around Romance focused on fallout from a tweet by Jack Harbon about the intent of those outside a marginalized community writing exclusively about that community (he was specifically referring to women, often white women, writing only about queer men). Separate from the actual conversations that happened around that initial tweet, it made me realize that while I’ve read queer romance by queer women, non-binary authors, and those who identify as genderqueer I had not yet read a m/m romance written […]

Finally! A Truly Trashy Romance

Match With the Demon by Chace Verity

January 10, 2022 by Emmalita 7 Comments

For years, people have been asking me about the trashy romances I read. Sadly I have had to explain that none of the romances I read are trashy. It’s very confusing for everyone. I’m not sure where they got the idea that romances are about trash. Finally I can hold up and recommend a trashy romance. In Chace Verity’s third cozy Canadian demon romance, Match With the Demon, a recent empty nester dad matches on a dating site with an improbably handsome man, who turns […]

Work For It (Just For Him, #4) by Talia Hibbert

December 31, 2021 by narfna 5 Comments

Perfect book at the perfect time. This is only my second book read out of Talia’s backlist (we are on a first-name basis apparently) and it was just as good as I’d hoped it would be. I haven’t read any of the other books in this series, but I probably will now that I’ve met some of the other characters and liked them, and vibe going on here. I don’t know if they will live up to this one, though. I was thisclose to giving this […]

The Territorial Lecherous Moth and The Dangerous Marshmallow

Proper Scoundrels by Allie Therin

November 26, 2021 by Emmalita Leave a Comment

Proper Scoundrels is a spin off from Therin’s Magic in Manhattan series. The adventures of Sebastian and Lord Fine won’t make much sense if you haven’t read the series, but you should read the series. It is excellent and Therin built a wonderful world while writing it. I’m so glad she’s writing past Arthur and Rory, and that we get to spend more time with Jade and Zhang. Wesley, Lord Fine, feels separated from the world by his title, and by his experience as a […]

The Gentle Art of Fortune Hunting by K.J. Charles

March 15, 2021 by Catticus Finch 1 Comment

This book is light hearted and frothy as a Regency can be in K.J. Charles’ hands. She has stated that she wrote this to take a break from writing a different one and threw in a lot of the usual tropes. And it was a lot of fun! Robin and Marianne Loxleigh of Nottinghamshire (hmmm…Locksley?) have arrived in London to find suitable marriage partners. Short on cash, they aren’t much different than the women seeking to marry a lord, they are just more honest about […]

It’s like I see the beginning of something and my brain goes right to the end.

The Home I Find With You by Skye Kilaen

February 23, 2021 by Emmalita Leave a Comment

It was profoundly strange to read a dystopian romance set in a United States after a climate change and racism driven civil war while my city and state were going through a climate driven disaster exacerbated by racist policies. If it had been written by another author, I probably would have put it aside as too close to home, but Skye Kilaen was writes with such kindness that it was a balm to read about her characters working together as a community to survive. Set […]

Zirza on A Gothic Classic for a ReasonIt's one of those wish-you-could-read-it-again-for-the-first-time books. I loved it.
Emmalita on “It came to something when you found yourself hoping that the footsteps you heard were ghosts.”I loved the ending! I don’t think it’s been out long enough to talk about why though.
Dixie on Track Her Down by Melinda LeighI am just starting Track Her Down and I have read them all in order till now and thought I...
Roland of Gilead on How can you give us the gift of a crazy character named Rando Thoughtful and then just as suddenly take that gift away? We need to talk, Uncle Stevie.I came across this randomly years after it was written because I was searching "Random Thoughtful. But I have the...
Emmalita on “Only you, Em, would refer to heartbreak as a distraction. I think I would have a more sympathetic response if I asked to marry a bookcase.”Oh my goodness, Gallifrey was beautiful. I’m sure her mittens were gloriously murdery.
