Workspace with computer, journal, books, coffee, and glasses.

Hey, everyone! How the heck is it Wednesday? I just got back from vacation and of course, I’m swamped in work and other obligations. It sucks. Definitely not the “ease back into real life” that I wanted. Over the weekend, I attended a big Disney pin trading evening (my first one!). I had a lot of fun, but I think the highlight was attending Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Party. It was really exciting to … Continue reading Links: Murderbot, Fat Bears, & More

Series Review: A League of Their Own

A LEague of Their Own with a black woman in a blue unform holding a ball, and a white woman in a red univorm with a bat over her shoulders members of the ensemble are at the bottom

CW: period-appropriate homophobia and racism, raid on a gay bar at the end of episode 6 I wasn’t planning on watching A League of Their Own when I heard it was being turned into a TV series. The original film was such a foundational part of my childhood, how could I possibly enjoy an 8-episode series as much?

The Bromance Book Club by Lyssa Kay Adams

But none of those things are better than an epic groveling scene, especially when it has an alpha protagonist brought down to their knees and desperate beyond measure. It’s when you can really feel how much one protagonist (usually the one who has screwed up royally) loves the … Continue reading The Bromance Book Club by Lyssa Kay Adams

HaBO: Sports Hero, Artist Heroine, Sexy Baked Goods

This HaBO is from Katie Lynn, who remembers so much about this book, I’m sure someone will know it right off the bat (pun totally intended): So, this weekend I was talking to a friend (who is my book partner in crime), trying to recall the title of a book I read last year sometime. I’ve been od’ing on sports romances, and recalled this one as being good and worth a reread. Except I can’t … Continue reading HaBO: Sports Hero, Artist Heroine, Sexy Baked Goods

The Devil in Denim by Melanie Scott

The Devil in Denim

Is everyone tired of hearing me talk about this book yet? I mentioned it on a previous “Whatcha Reading” and I gushed heavily on my podcast with Sarah where I talk about contemporary sports romances. Admittedly, I don’t try new authors as much as I probably should. I DON’T LIKE CHANGE! But I’m really glad I gave it a chance. I liked it. No, I loved it. So much that I actually bought it after … Continue reading The Devil in Denim by Melanie Scott
