Savannah Carlisle is the author of The Library of Second Chances and is a sports business reporter and nonfiction author under the name Kristi Dosh. Her romance centers on a Little Free Library, so of course we are talking about that. We also discuss the difficult economies of small coastal towns, and the ways that memories can be attached to a place. Then we talk about sports romance – and why she doesn’t want to … Continue reading 651. Little Free Libraries and Sports with Savannah Carlisle and Kristi Dosh→
We Solve Murders by Richard Osman is $6.99! This came out last September, but I suspect some of you may still be waiting for your library hold to come in. Maybe snap this up if you impatience is winning out.
This Rec League came from Elle. Thanks, Elle! I feel like I struggle to find what I think of as feminist romances. I would love urban fantasy, paranormal or fantasy romances where the women are powerful and shine just as much as the guy characters. I love a good devoted guy MC too. Shelley Laurenston is the best fit for what I am thinking but I’m sure there are others with interesting takes and characters … Continue reading The Rec League: Feminist Fantasy→
Hello, everyone! How are we doing on this Wednesday? If you’re feeling a little low today, that is okay. I am too. My partner and I are currently going HAM on words of affirmation. There has also been lots of snow lately, both in New England and wildly in my home state of Florida. My fellow Southerners, how are you holding up? Supposedly, it’s supposed to be colder in Massachusetts than in Alaska this week … Continue reading Links: Music, Embroidery, and More→

Bombshell by Sarah MacLean is $1.99! This is the first book in the Hell’s Belles series. Book two is also on sale. Elyse gave this one a B-:
Objectively I can look at this book and say that some readers may have an issue with how much time spent on the girl-gang scenes versus the romance, but also ONE OF THEM SPECIALIZES IN EXPLOSIONS. I think part of this imbalance is to set up the rest of the series, but the gang’s quest for justice was very heisty and fun.

We also mention this in two Rec Leagues: Gentle Historical or Fantasy Road Trips and “Normal” Heroines in Fantasy Romance.
This HaBO is from Kate, who hopes to find this romance. Content warning for the description below: I probably read this book back in the 80s or 90s, and I need to find it again…because it had such a crazy plot. I must reread it. The heroine is a doctor or a health care professional. She lives in Montana or Wyoming on a ranch. Her elderly husband recently died and left the ranch to her. … Continue reading HaBO: Just Wow→
Happy Tuesday, y’all! I feel like it’s coincidentally the perfect time to talk about new books and just load up our TBR piles so we don’t have to come up for air in the next four years. No particular reason why! Which books are on your list this week? Let us know!
