Clare-Dragonfly And Jane is all pining over Rochester. I do not understand what she sees in him. 🙄 2y

i.besteph Idk what they hype is about Miss Ingram. She isn‘t even an appealing character. And Rochester seems flaky 😤 2y

Part of Your World: A Twisted Tale | Liz Braswell

pick

I have seen many of these Disney twisted tales, and always wanted to read one.
I really enjoyed this one as it played on the original story, but gave The Little Mermaid a different ending. I can't wait to read another one of these twisted tales.

It took a few chapters for this debut to gather strength, but it finishes as a really fun read! I loved the Ren Faire setting for this romance. Definitely reading book 2 when it comes out this fall! #bbrc #yeahbaby #greenwithenvy for cover and that Emily is a bit envious of the roots people have in this small town and wants them herself. #bookspinbingo #centersquare

LibrarianRyan, TheAromaofBooks

TheAromaofBooks Woohoo!! I enjoyed this one, even though I felt like it was a little rough in spots. Looking forward to book 2 next month!! 4y

LibrarianRyan 😁👍🏻❤️ 4y

Sarahreadstoomuch @TheAromaofBooks yeah, it‘s definitely got that “debut” feel in parts. Still very enjoyable and looking forward to the next one! 4y

If I Don’t Have You | Sareeta Domingo

pick

Blogger/artist Kayla meets film director Ren at a press junket, & there‘s a connection, they ‘get‘ each other. But there‘s a world between them, they‘re unlikely to meet again, & both have stuff going on...

This steamy romance is completely out of my normal reading (if anyone‘s seen my normal reading, please send it home!), but I enjoyed it. The characters are well-drawn, the conversations felt real, the complications weren‘t overly-contrived 👇

rockpools and the steamy bits were steamy! I also enjoyed the love/hate relationship Kayla had with her sister. And can we talk about just how stunning that cover is?!

This may never be my go-to genre, but I‘d certainly read more by Sareeta Domingo.

This is part of publisher Jacaranda‘s Twenty in 2020 initiative, publishing 20 Black British authors throughout the year. Thank you to #NetGalley and #Jacaranda for an eARC to review. 4y

rockpools Ren‘s world of blockbuster movies is #setinhollywood, and he‘s there, sending postcards, for a couple of key scenes in the book (kind of tenuous but...) #Booked2020 Kayla spends a fair amount of time #greenwithenvy , especially where her sister‘s concerned. #BBRC #yeahbaby . Book 3 (I think) for #NetGalleyReviewathon @sprainedbrain @LibrarianRyan @Sarahreadstoomuch @BarbaraTheBibliophage @4thhouseontheleft @Cinfhen 4y

Cinfhen Woohoo 🎉 an exciting new ARC and it ticks off lots of challenge prompts 🙌🏻💕 (edited) 4y

CarolynM I like the sound of this (I'm always up for romance recs, especially from people who don't read them much). I've stacked it and I'm going to see what its price looks like🙂 4y

rockpools @Cinfhen I‘m up to 75%, even with a bail this week 🎉🎉🎉 (little things!) 4y

rockpools @CarolynM I think I‘ve read a year‘s worth of romance in the last month - it‘s most odd! Hope you enjoy it if you find it. Definitely NSFW, mind! 4y

Sarahreadstoomuch I love that cover 😍 4y

rockpools @Sarahreadstoomuch The cover artist has *definitely* read the book! 4y

I absolutely loved this audiobook. The cast was incredible, the story was enthralling & I enjoyed every moment of it. It tells the story of a group of people, living in a green community that is cut off from the world after Mt Rainier erupts. 🐵

The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo: A Novel | Taylor Jenkins Reid

“People think that intimacy is about sex. But intimacy is about truth. When you realize you can tell someone your truth, when you can show yourself to them, when you stand in front of them bare and their response is ‘you‘re safe with me‘ - that‘s intimacy.”

Thousandth Floor | Katharine McGee

Days behind on #awesomeautumnbooks (again), and trying to catch up since it's already October and I should be on to the next challenge!

So, here is #GreenwithEnvy. The Thousandth Floor is a scandalous YA series about the different people in various economic classes in the tower that takes up the majority of the vertical City of New York. There is lots of jealousy, blackmail, and lavish parties.

swishandflick I'm reading the second one now and loving it almost more than the first, I think! 7y

Kaylamburson I have the second one on overdrive right now, but haven't started it! I'm excited now!! You'll have to let me know what you think when you finish, @swishandflick!! 7y
