@willaful @romancelandia @romancebooks “The Trouble with Trying to Date a Murderer” by Jennifer Cody. This book is BONKERS. It’s set in a universe that I can only describe as “Paranormal John Wick.” If you want “realism”, this is not the book for you. If you want a hilarious paranormal M/M romance grounded in absolutely zero reality, I recommend it!

@willaful I was way down the holds list for Beth O'Leary's new one, "The Wake-Up Call", but then it appeared available at another library so I grabbed it. Plot's just started to get bubbling there. O'Leary's been hit-or-miss with me in the past; when she's good, she's really good, so I'm hopeful. Listening to Tarah DeWitt's "Rootbound" and waiting to figure out if I like the main characters - not clear yet. @romancelandia @romancebooks
@willaful @romancelandia @romancebooks I just dnf'd Paris Daillencourt Is About to Crumble. Very disappointed, it was funny but just so much anxiety. So I don't know. Maybe finishing The Secret Lives of Country Gentlemen? I kind of drifted away in the middle...
@willaful @romancelandia @romancebooks isn't it hard when you can't pinpoint why you feel a feeling, just that you do? I get that.
I'm listening to Dax by Sawyer Bennett and reading an ARC of Blood and Bonbons by Melissa Nicole. Early for both, but so far so good.
@willaful @romancelandia @romancebooks @lenoreo I’ve had Dax on my TBR for a while, I’ll be curious to hear what you think of it.

Executive Orders by Tom Clancy, which is also very uncomfortable in the current world, for different reasons than the Henry book!
@willaful I'm reading Lisa Peers' _Love at 350 degrees_, and f/f romance with protagonists over 40, set in the context of a "reality tv" baking competition.
So far it's so, so good (I'm at 39%)
