Rom Com/Contemporary Publication date: 11/20/2020 Kindle Unlimited: Yes Cliffhanger: No The Great Book Slump of 2020 is over!!!
So, a while back, I put together a rock star romance list and got RIPPED A NEW ONE for one of my recommendations. (I stand by that recommendation, by the way--but if you're curious, check out the comments here.) Long-story-short, this reader was irritated that one of the books featured a rock star with addiction issues and a checkered sexual history (ahem)--and he wasn't very nice to his newest female employee. While I didn't agree with what this individual had to say (she wasn't very kind and didn't use her inside voice, that's for SURE), it did make me realize that manwhores and alpha jerkwads DO seem to show up a lot in rock star romances. BUT, as with anything else in life, there are exceptions, of course. So, with that in mind, here are my favorite rock star romances that do NOT feature a manwhore or alpha jerkwad lead. You're welcome:
Well, the Great Book Slump of 2020 rages on. There were more books thrown on the DNF pile last week. Here's the full report (save yourselves...it's too late for me):
Friday the 13th doesn't have to be all scary and gloom and doom. We could just read great romance novels instead of waiting for something awful to happen. Just a thought. And with that thought in mind here are 13 GREAT 2020 romance novels that I hope you'll adore just as much as I did:
What about y'all? What books are in your top 13 for 2020? Feel free to share 'em in the comments!
Yes, I'm still in a horrific book slump. But that doesn't mean I'm ready to give up. In fact, there are several new releases coming up this month that I'm crazy-excited for. Hopefully, one (or all) of them will save me from the pits of book despair. (No pressure, authors) So, here they are--my hopefuls:
While I did get a brief reprieve from The Great Book Slump of 2020 when I read an ARC of The Has-Been and the Hot Mess by Isabel Jordan, I have been sent back to the pits of book despair. Here's this week's DNF report:
If ever there was a time to read books about witches, vampires, zombies and werewolves, it's the day before Halloween! So, with that in mind, get ready to 1-click some spooktacular romance reads. You'll thank me later:
Once every couple of months or so, someone who doesn't read romance (often a white man, for some reason) pops up on social media with a hot take about how romance novels don't really need to have happy endings (known from here on out as HEA) to still be considered romance novels. Whenever this happens, Romance Twitter (Romancelandia) comes out in full force to stomp on the unfortunate idiot's throat. It never helps. The idiot just gets louder and louder, proudly proclaiming their ignorance to the world. Well, apparently, last week it was time for another unfortunate idiot to step up and proclaim (as loudly as possible) that romance novels don't need a HEA--and further, that romance novels are slut shame-y, and that it's gross to assume all HEAs should include a paired-off couple. Other various bullshit was also spouted. I'm proud to say that I didn't directly address the idiot. But, today, I'm going to debunk every stupid thing the idiot said so that when this happens again next month (and it will happen again next month), I can just point them to my reply instead of repeating myself. So, here it goes:
As you know, my epic book reading slump rages on. So, for today's list, I thought I'd fondly remember the most recent 15 five-star books I read and reviewed on the site. (Because who knows when I'll find another one, you know? Things are looking pretty grim right now.) Without further ado, here they are:
I used to be one of those people who never DNF'd a book. Not ever. I read to the bitter end, even if I was hating every minute of it. I don't do that anymore, and you shouldn't either. Here's why:
I've talked about neighbor romance before, but I think it's WAY past time to update that list. Wouldn't you agree? If not, you will after reading about THESE neighbors:
Given that I am in the midst of an unprecedented book slump, I'm hoping y'all can help me decide what to read next (since I no longer trust my own judgement). I'll let you know what's sitting on my Kindle right now, and if you could let me know your picks, I'd appreciate it. Thanks in advance!! Here it goes:
I might have mentioned that I have a weakness for grumpy heroes, right? Because I really, really do. Grumpy bosses, in particular, are some of my favorites. With that in mind, here are my picks for the 11 hottest grumpy bosses in romance today. Happy reading:
I'm in a horrific book slump, y'all. It's unprecedented. I've marked so many books DNF (did not finish) lately that if I was to stop and review them all, I'd never get anything else done. So, because I have a life, I'm just going to give you a brief report on everything I've DNF'd lately. Now, please note, none of these books were poorly written. They just weren't for me. But I'm including buy links because one person's crapola is another's cat nip. (I don't judge. You do you.) Here it goes (takes deep breath):
