A Novel Love Story by Ashley Poston is $1.99! The heroine finds herself in a small town romance novel and I’m definitely tempted by the meta-ness of it all. However, Poston’s romances have always been middle of the road for me personally.
RECOMMENDED: The Finest Print by Erin Langston is $1.99! Fingers crossed this isn’t an expiring Kindle Daily Deal. Claudia picked this one as her favorite read of 2024:
Set in the London publishing world in the mid 19th century, this is an angsty read with working-class characters. There’s a lot about writing, publishing and literacy that were extra treats for me!
Love, Theoretically by Ali Hazelwood is $3.99! This one came out last summer and Hazelwood’s books rarely go on sale. Snap this one up while you can!
The Seven Year Slip by Ashley Poston is $1.99! Thank you to everyone who let us know about this sale and fingers crossed it’s still discounted. Have any of you read this one?
The Dead Romantics by Ashley Poston is $4.99! I don’t believe we’ve ever had this one on sale before. Carrie reviewed this and gave it C, nothing that she was very confused by this one. Do you feel the same?
The Duke Gets Even by Joanna Shupe is $2.99! 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?

RECOMMENDED: The Frangipani Tree Mystery by Ovidia Yu is 99c! You may have seen this mentioned on the site recently because Sarah is reading through the series. Here’s what she has to say:
I really enjoyed this one – the setting, historical period, and mix of cultures were new to me and wonderfully absorbing, and I really like the heroine, who is trying to see through everyone’s BS, and learning that she has some barriers to her own BS detection that need to be removed. She also has master levels of polyglot, so she can communicate across so many cultural lines, and translate through and beneath them – it’s a terrific story.
I am very confused by The Dead Romantics, a contemporary romance between a ghostwriter and an actual ghost. This book has a lot of parts to it, and I’m not sure how I feel about almost all of them. I will therefore write this review as a list of all the pieces and how I felt about them.
