#WhatchaReading ? I just finished Seeing Blind by Poppy Dale, a very sweet, sort of "shop around the corner" romance which is my catnip. Part epistolary, which is also my catnip. Kisses only. Kiss only, really. 😁

One character has prosopagnosia, which is a significant disability for him. Can't say if it's an accurate portrayal but it was very interesting.

Slightly disconcerting that it's set in Manhattan and CA but the author is quite obviously British. 😁

@notTheAudience I remember being very annoyed by a Hazelwood book in which an environmental scientist justified her purchases because "duh, recycling!" I.E. the author doesn't know wtf she's talking about.

@willaful @notTheAudience @romancelandia @romancebooks ROFL, I don't remember that recycling one, but I've definitely had ace spectrum issues with Hazelwood on occasion. I still enjoy other parts, but I'm now thankful I'm not knowledgeable enough about the science community to get bothered by it.

I always find it funny which aspects of books will bother me to the ends of times, and which ones I'll be able to just shrug and accept in order to enjoy the good parts...it surprises me sometimes.
