I’d love to know if you read & like any🤞🏼hoping for at least 1 gem in there 😊
“See, I'm not much for PNR. If it is REALLY well written and/or not really romantasy, I'm good. Like that first Rebecca Yarros dragon thing Fourth Wing. I was surprised it was romantasy according to GR. It didn't really seem YA, either.And IA's Burn for Me et seq. PNR??? I think not. Nor Written in Red. (what a great book)
But if it's all the internal monologue about "oh, he's too good for me" and descriptions of him and eventual sex scenes and stuff, I'm bored.
Series and individual book suggestions would be welcome. I like me a little bit of romance, but not a book centered on romance.” (Pulled from https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...)
Kateblue, I’ve quickly grabbed some suggestions for ya. Don’t have time to break them down, sorry.
This is an old series that’s still running about an FBI unit w/psychics: https://www.goodreads.com/series/5252...
WTG!
😆By hype I meant those you see everyone reading and raving about, a book that seems to be everywhere at once/pushed on seller and rec sites, etc.
I typically avoid a book by an unknown author when I see it blasted everywhere. The rare times I haven’t, I’ve gone in with my hopes too high and been disappointed. Instead I’ve waited a year or more to see if the enthusiasm around it has remained and may check it out then.

I think Sandra reads Jayne Ann Krenz‘ books. Maybe hit her up if she doesn’t see these recent posts.

👍🏼 I’ll try to find some suggestions for ya
CassieCruel, that sucks! I don’t think I’ve had that issue yet. Agree, Victoria, I wish there was a way to stop getting recs for certain KU books.
Sandra & I love that series. It’s completed and one we’d definitely recommend.
Sandra wrote: "I'll let you know what happens, without the guff :)"That’d be great 😊
My bad 😊 that would be sweet! And very much yes to the remembering!
WTG!

Love that y'all are enjoying it 😊
Me too, I'm saving #7 for closer to #8. Saw this last year and have high hopes for 8 this year:https://marthawells.dreamwidth.org/65...
18 Jun 2024: I finished the draft of a book today that I've been working on since around December 2022. In 2023 there was cancer and other stuff, but it is finally done. I don't think I can say too much about it since the publisher hasn't announced it yet, so I'm going to leave it at that. But in short, yay!
I really liked Edwards' Beginner's Guide to Necromancy - hope you do, too.
Oh, sorry, I meant I haven't started her Devil's Cradle series. I keep up with her others. Dark in You is my favorite, too. Sandra liked DC as well and recommended it; I'm looking forward to it, just haven't started.
