For Love & Liberty; Untold Love Stories of the American Revolution was recommended to me on Twitter. Overall, it was a good suggestion. Four different novellas make up the collection with a very attractive ebook price. I did not love… Read more »

The Hidden Blade by Sherry Thomas
Strictly speaking, The Hidden Blade is not a romance. Sherry Thomas has put out the world’s longest prologue and I couldn’t be happier about it. If I’d had My Beautiful Enemy I’d have started reading it the second I finished The… Read more »
Midnight Crossroad by Charlaine Harris
What happens when a roller coaster author stops delivering that giddy can’t-believe-you’re-still-reading thrill? A DNF at page 123. I generally tear through a Charlaine Harris book in a few hours, reaching the end with the same unsettled feeling I get after inadvertently eating… Read more »

One night on Twitter I asked people to let me know about books they knew dealt with disability and/or had PoC characters because it’s not easy to search for that on NetGalley or retailer sites. Heidi Cullinan tweeted me to… Read more »
Covet Thy Neighbor by L.A. Witt
In one of my links posts last week, I mentioned wanting to read a romance featuring a religious or atheist character where there was no conversion narrative. That caught the attention of Riptide editor Sarah Frantz, whom I’ve talked to… Read more »
The Inheritance Trilogy by N.K. Jemisin
One of the side-effects of contributing for this blog is that I’ve started to actively seek out POC authors in other genres too. Last autumn, I suggested my local library acquire this trilogy and in December I got a message… Read more »
