pickThe local bookclub picked crossroads to read because Devney Perry and Jay Kristoff were coming to town. I loved her Romantasy Shield of Sparrows- and am really enjoying her contemporary romances too- Formulaic and HEA but I like the characters and backstories!
so-soIt was a cute story, but the writing didn't really flow for me. The characters weren't very consistent and things jumped around a lot. I appreciate the effort to the fall rom com trope though. #55-2025
Listening to my first "duet" audiobook and exclaiming in real disgust the first time the actual duet thing happens. Do people really not like the alternating narrators doing both voices? This is jarring. It also feels cowardly, to me? Let every gender do every genders' voice!
#LittensLoveRomance Ch.15-16: I still feel bad for Amelia. Noah knows she‘s lonely. He offers to spend time with her. And yet he leaves her alone all night so he can go hang with his sisters. I understand it‘s their tradition but couldn‘t an exception have been made? He still doesn‘t want her getting too entwined in his life. I wonder what will be the tipping point where he realizes he needs to ask her to stay.
#LittensLoveRomance Ch.13-14: who are these two kidding? Just friends. Bah. How long will that last? Noah already admitted he cares for Amelia - their one kiss knocked their socks off - I don‘t think these two are destined for friendship. But it‘s nice that he‘s willing to be around her now. This is progress. I do think though that Susan is going to track her down (she texted her location to her mom) and ruin things. Susan feels like a “ruiner”.
#LittensLoveRomance Ch.11-12: Noah is so sweet once we break through his tough shell. He‘s finally allowing Amelia in - I sure hope these two don‘t hurt each other because I think they need each other. Here‘s hoping Amelia can get over her embarrassment over this night and she gets closer to Noah. But Monday is coming soon - what‘s the game plan once feelings get involved?
pickI‘m on a roll this weekend. This was a fun fake-dating holiday rom-com. It‘s spicy, and more importantly, filled with great characters and solid writing. I don‘t think anything billionaire romance truly feels believable, but the fantasy is fun and you can‘t help but root for Fable and Wilder. This is all the NetGalley backlist title I chose for #doublespin
