Most of today’s covers were found by Sneezy, who certainly plumbed some depths! Sneezy: The dude looks distressingly like he was long hold selected from another picture and slapped on. …and with the general ambiance of the cover, the publisher’s logo looks like a pair of testies. Amanda: I think the author font is the same one Alice Clayton used to use? I feel like he just told that played out “tickets to the gun … Continue reading Cover Snark: What If a Disco Ball Were a Man? →

It’s our last Whatcha Reading of the month! There are five weekends this March, and that tends to throw some scheduling off. Sarah: I’m about to start The Duchess by Sophie Jordan, part of the Scandalous Ladies of London series. I’m curious on levels: first, this sounds like it will include an exploration of social power and the leveraging thereof, and two, I want to see if I can read a historical, as it’s been … Continue reading Whatcha Reading?

The Duke Gets Even by Joanna Shupe is 99c! This is book four in the Fifth Avenue Rebels series. I loved the intimacy in the last couple covers of this series. Have you read all four? What do you think?

We’re looking at the ads and features from the March 2016 issue of RT Book Reviews! We’ve got cowboy heads growing out of gravel roads, a dude who looks like he’s on fire, and that one guy who is always ripping his shirt off from romance covers. We decide on an in-house definition of “Castle Bangenschloss.” Oh! And a really angry reader wants self pub authors to stop using the same stock images for different … Continue reading 607.

RECOMMENDED: A Nobleman’s Guide to Seducing a Scoundrel by KJ Charles is $2.75 at Amazon! I’m hoping this isn’t a soon-expiring Kindle Daily Deal from yesterday. Lara gave this one an A-:
For me, the best part of this book was the conversations between Luke and Rufus, both in the bedroom and outside of it. There was such a profound connection between the two, that it was easy for me to be swept away by it.

This Rec League comes from Anna. Thanks, Anna! This might be a long shot, but I was listening to one of my favorite podcasts the other day and enjoying the banter between one of the hosts and the producer, and it made me think of how many fun dynamics there are in that scene. Are there any romance novels set in the podcasting industry? The closest thing I can think of is The Ex Talk, … Continue reading The Rec League: Podcasting →
Welcome back! Last time I talked about making tiramisu. This time, I’m talking about lasagna. My partner had a dinner request, which they so rarely have, so I had to oblige. I’ve never made lasagna, but I’ve made plenty of other involved pasta dishes like stuffed shells. However, I was not expecting to make a hearty sauce from scratch. I did, though, and it was amazing. I used this recipe and I really don’t think they’re … Continue reading Links: F1 Racing, Readathons, & More →
RECOMMENDED: The Monsters We Defy by Leslye Penelope is $2.99! Sarah read this one and gave it a B:
I liked the painstaking and careful character development of the first half more than the zoomy-zoom plot of the second half, but the foundation of historical fiction and incredible detail coupled with folk magic, ghosts, and negotiating with spirits made this an exceptionally fun, absorbing, and thoughtful story.
