Weekly Round Up. 2

My rabbit died yesterday. These were all pre-written, I don’t know how the next week will look in terms of…anything. Currently everything tastes like sadness.

But anyway, here is this week’s Weekly Roundup of Goodreads M/M Romance Groups Love’s Landscape stories:

Game On by Ollie White: This here is an absolutely perfect example of a story that uses too much telling, but is still fantastic. So yes, that can be done (but, no, you probably can’t pull it off yourself).

Indian Summer by D.C. Williams: A short and simple friends to lovers sort of story.

Budding Love by Adara O’Hare: A rather weird but good sci-fi tale of…uh…xenobotany?

Dancing for Diamond by K-lee Klein: a moderate quality tale of second chances, starting over, and making your own way in the world–but not necessarily alone.

Tidewater by Les Joseph: Two guys stuck in a place they hadn’t wanted to be, looking for something better. Or at least a little luck.

Jaden’s Honor by Sassy Lane: I read this, and it was wholly okay. But I would not read it again.

Love the Little Guys by M.E. Sanford: Tiny Top Seeks Tinier Bottom. Sex Ensues.

Blaze of Glory by Jeff Erno: I hate to say anything bad about a story about a soldier with PTSD, but let’s all try to remember that a touch-button issue doesn’t automatically make you a good writer. Even if you do allllllll the research.

Exposed by Bette Browne: a gay-for-you cop story, where neither of those things are all that important. Slow paced, long sex scene when it comes… Nothing special, but not bad.
