The Ex Talk by Rachel Lynn Solomon is $1.99! I’m unsure if this is a leftover Kindle Daily Deal from yesterday. Catherine read this one and gave it a B-:
There was some lovely writing, some fantastic banter, and I really did like Shay and Dominic together. They had terrific chemistry and the sort of teasing relationship that makes me very happy, because it means there is a firm foundation of friendship underneath the romance.

This Rec League comes from Cyndy. Thanks, Cyndy! I love suspense/thriller romances but have gotten pretty disillusioned with the military and police for all the reasons you’d might expect. I’ve gotten by with some books about ex military groups or non government entities and I can apparently suspend my disbelief enough in those circumstances to have a good time (think Adriana Anders’s Survival Instincts series, which I LOVE). I’d appreciate if there are recs along … Continue reading The Rec League: Romantic Suspense without Military or Law Enforcement →
Hey, ho! Let’s go (read some Wednesday Links)! I had a big productive weekend and I’m still riding that high or I was…until I started getting the telltale pre-period discomfort. Welp, it was nice while it lasted. Speaking of periods, I posted about this on the SBTB Instagram. I discovered the Menstruation Crustacean in a local store and then discovered there are two more varieties: a crab and a shrimp. I think shape-wise, I’d prefer … Continue reading Links: Libraries, Rodeos, & More →
The Minuscule Mansion of Myra Malone by Audrey Burges is $1.99! I believe this was my pick on a previous Hide Your Wallet and I was really intrigued by the concept. However, I never got around to reading it; ain’t that just the way.

Y’all know I love my Brontës and I get so annoyed when either adaptations of their work or stories based on their lives get EVERYTHING WRONG, DAMMIT. My Brother’s Keeper is an eerie story involving the Brontë family, werewolves, and warring cults, and, darn it, it gets everything just absolutely perfect. I was so impressed with this book even though the whole warring cults thing was the least interesting thing about it. I’m copying the … Continue reading My Brother’s Keeper by Tim Powers →

Help A Bitch Out - SOLVED!
This HaBO comes from Kierra, who wants to find this YA book: I read this book a friend gave me when I was in 6th grade (I’m 20 now for reference). It’s about a girl in a post-apocalyptic (maybe, not sure?) world, and she has this love interest named Cole. There are a few other characters. I remember this one guy who dates a girl named Kayla (maybe?). She ends up dying and I think … Continue reading HaBO: Apocalyptic Cole →
Get ready for another beefy release week! This taper off slightly midway through the month, but then get stacked again toward the end. We have some series continuations and a series starter. Lots of contemporary romances, but some mysteries and even a historical. What are you looking forward to this week? Anything already preordered?
A Duet with a Siren Duke by Elise Kova is $2.99! This is part of the Married to Magic series, which is often featured on Hide Your Wallet. Have any of you picked these up? What do you think of the series?

Welcome back to Cover Awe, where we look at covers that caught our eye. Sarah: This is a mystery but I really like this cover I spotted in a Netgalley email. Lara: Spooky bread! I’m here for it! Amanda: And a pun! It wouldn’t be a cozy mystery without a pun on the cover. Sarah: It’s the yeast they can do. Sneezy: The little ghostie face rising with the steam is so cute! I hope … Continue reading Cover Awe: Flowers, Perspectives, & More →
