#WhatchaReading ? I enjoyed Come As You Are by Jess K. Hardy, a romance with middle-aged characters! (Though still in great shape.) FMC is trying to save her father's ski hill, which her evil in c/[email protected]

@willaful @romancebooks I'm still not reading new, but on a road trip I relistened to Bookshops and Bonedust by Travis Baldree, this time with my hubby. Still delightful.

#WhatchaReading ? I'm halfway through Behind These Doors, a queer historical (with some polyamory) involving class issues and women's suffrage. One main character is a "nob," the other a reporter who in c/[email protected]

@willaful @romancelandia @romancebooks Started listening to Flor's Fiasco by Ruby Dixon, I've been waiting for this on audio forever so I can finally finish Icehome series. Exactly what I was expecting so far, fun and steamy.

#WhatchaReading ? I was up all night 🥱 finishing You Should Be So Lucky. Amazingly, it's somehow not a letdown after the gorgeousness of We Could Be So Good. in c/[email protected]

@willaful @romancelandia @romancebooks sounds cute! I'm listening to Check & Mate by Ali Hazelwood and so far it's keeping my attention, which is not easy these days!

Been reading Forever My Girl by Heidi McLauchlin but giving up and deleting it because the MMC can't have a single thought about a woman that isn't misogynistic as hell. They all want him, they're all in c/[email protected]

@willaful @romancebooks yeah, was super meh on that book, and I don't remember if I finished...

Friends, #WhatchaReading ? I finished The Other Side of Disappearing and think it'll be one of my top romances of the year. I loved the plotting, the richness of the themes and the really satisfying in c/[email protected]

@willaful @romancelandia @romancebooks I actually finished a book in Mexico, listened to Bride by Ali Hazelwood. It was enjoyable!

OMG, the mmc of Role Playing by Cathy Yarley uses a fleshlight. That's breaking such a verboten romance rule I hadn't even realized it was a rule. in c/[email protected]

@willaful @romancelandia @romancebooks I adore that book, especially as a demi.

My daughter loved How to Excavate a Heart! What sapphic YA romance next?! in c/[email protected]

@willaful @romancelandia @romancebooks I read it 7+ years ago, but I enjoyed Keeping Her Secret by Sarah Nicolas. And I loved The Summer of Jordi Pérez by Amy Spalding, especially the audiobook.

For light romance, what about Legends and Lattes?

#WhatchaReading ? I read A Mother for Christmas, a kindle freebie. A bit mawkish, but I can't say I wasn't warned by the title. The prose was quirky and had some personality to it. Could have used in c/[email protected]

@willaful @romancelandia @romancebooks I finished listening to On a Night Like This by Liz Maverick, and just started listening to Do Your Worst by Rosie Danan and so far it's fun!

#WhatchaReading ? I'm still sniffling after finishing Stars in Your Eyes by Kacen Callender. Painful but beautifully tender and hopeful m/m romance that explores how abuse and trauma can negatively in c/[email protected]

@willaful @romancelandia @romancebooks really enjoyed the unconventional romance that was Stars in Your Eyes!! Glad you loved it too!

I'm reading nothing! Sad but true. Ah well.

#WhatchaReading ? I finished the most waste of time old Harlequin, The Wild Side by Diana Hamilton. One of those awful misogynistic old skool books that's pretty fun if you're in the right mood -- but in c/[email protected]

@Eve @willaful @romancelandia @romancebooks seriously. And that's not even books from the 80s or 90s, the 00s too

@willaful @romancelandia @romancebooks I'm finding that more and more with my old Harlequins, very few gems.

I'm not really reading at the moment, we're in the mountains for our 20th anniversary! We did listen to Legends and Lattes by Travis Baldree on the road trip, my second time, Brett's first.

[\#WhatchaReading](https://romancelandia.club/tags/WhatchaReading)? On my third try, I finally finished The Wake Up Call. I liked it fairly well by the end, but I don't read Beth O'Leary for tropiness in c/[email protected]

@willaful @romancelandia @romancebooks I'm avoiding reading my ARC of Evergreen by Devin Greenlee for my read ahead #readathon for #COYER. It's just not capturing me, and the reviews have the same complaints I already notice, so I really want to DNF. Instead I decided to relisten to Eight Winter Nights by Liz Maverick after recommending it, so maybe I can read the next 2 novellas. Definitely more my mood right now.
