It’s Whatcha Reading time! Where we talk about the books we’ve been loving (or hating) this month and try desperately not to BUY ALL THE THINGS. Go forth into the comments, and godspeed! Amanda: I treated myself to All the Single Ladies , which was mentioned on a podcast episode and sounds all around awesome and empowering. In terms of romance, I’m reading the Billionaire Bachelor by Jessica Lemmon and the setup reminds me so much … Continue reading Whatcha Reading? August 2016 Edition→
Reader Mary Star recently sent us an email asking for romances set in Canada. Here’s what she said: I’m hoping the Bitchery can help me out — I’m going on a cruise to Nova Scotia and New Brunswick this fall and clearly need to start thinking about my reading! 🙂 I like bringing books that sort of evoke of the feeling of the vacation and I’d be all for some romances set in Atlantic Canada, … Continue reading The Rec League: Oh, Canada→
I was going to ease you guys into this review, but then I remembered that the Bitchery are not an audience that needs to be eased into these sorts of things. So here’s the tl;dr right at the beginning: “My Dad Wrote a Porno” is a podcast where a British man, Jamie, and his friends James and Alice read aloud an erotic novella written by Jamie’s father. It goes about as well as you’d expect. … Continue reading Guest Squee: “My Dad Wrote a Porno” Podcast→
It’s time. We talk about what we’re reading. We buy all the books everyone else is reading. It’s the most wonderful thread each month! You ready? Let’s do this! Sarah: I’m reading all the Mary Balogh Regency re-releases. One after the other. A Certain Magic was wonderful. I may have to read it again. I’m also reading Rebekah Weatherspoon’s vampires lesbian sorority book, Better Off Red . I thought I had the book on a 9-hour flight but no, … Continue reading Whatcha Reading? July 2016 Edition→
It’s time! It’s time for our monthly thread where we discuss what we’re reading, and then turn around and buy more books because everyone is reading something really interesting and we want to read that, too. Have I mentioned how glad I am that I’m not alone with this habit? REALLY GLAD. Let’s get started! Sarah: I am reading Diablo Lake: Moonstruck by Lauren Dane . WITCHES FINALLY letting myself read WITCHES. Redheadedgirl: I just finished The … Continue reading Whatcha Reading? June 2016 Edition→
Not all of us get our daily dose of romance through physical books or e-reading. Some prefer to stock up on audiobooks, whether it’s for a long drive or designated gym time. We received an email from Reader Marci, requesting a few great audiobook recommendations or favorite narrators: I was wondering if you would consider doing a recommendation post about audiobooks? Are there any that you or your readers love and consider keepers? Any favorite narrators? … Continue reading The Rec League: Must Have Romance Audiobooks→
It’s time! It’s time! Put your wallet in the freezer, get a good drink, ring the bell, whatever – it’s time to talk about what we’re reading in the most enjoyably expensive monthly thread! I want to hear about what you’re reading, because I’m sure you’re currently engrossed in something awesome and we all want to know about it. You do have excellent taste, after all. Also, the kitten is absolutely NOT judging you for buying more books … Continue reading Whatcha Reading? May 2016 Edition→
We received an email from Reader Nettle about her recent love of unassuming heroes. While I’m personally a fan of (at times overbearing) Alphas, I know some ladies at SBTB HQ love a good, quiet Beta hero. SB Sarah: ME ME ME ME ME ME ME ME! *ahem* Here’s what Nettle wrote to us: This might be an odd request. I just re-read Georgette Heyer’s Cotillion, and Freddy made me want more heroes like him – … Continue reading The Rec League: Unassuming, Underestimated Heroes→
It’s time for our monthly discussion of expensiveness, where we talk about what we’re reading, what we liked, and then buy more books because everyone has great recommendations. Also – this is one of my favorite threads every month, so thank you for being part of it! Sarah: I’m buffet-reading books and it’s not good. That’s usually a sign that I’m stressed and, well, yeah, that’s accurate. I started listening to Dragon Bound by Thea Harrison … Continue reading Whatcha Reading? April 2016 Edition→
All right! It’s time for everyone’s post they love to hate because it often leaves very unhappy wallets! March is nearly over (wow!) and hopefully it’s starting to feel a little like spring wherever you are. I know I’m looking forward to bringing my book outside to laze around in the sun. So let’s get this party started! Amanda: I mentioned on a previous Whatcha Reading that I had picked up Dumplin’ by Julie Murphy , … Continue reading Whatcha Reading? March 2016 Edition→
Happy February, everyone! Even though it’s almost over and it’s a rather short month, I’m sure we’ve all been getting some reading time in, especially with winter refusing to go away. Be warned that this post is hazardous on your book budget, so careful with the one-clicking! Amanda: I’m not actively reading anything right now because I’ve been in a weird slump, staring listlessly at my TBR pile. However, I’ve picked out two books that … Continue reading Whatcha Reading?
