The Comeback by Lily Chu is $1.99! Thank you to everyone who let us know about this sale. If you’re like me and eager for any k-pop romances after watching K-Pop Demon Hunters, this might scratch that itch. (Also, where are all the k-pop romances?!)
GUEST RECOMMENDED: The Ruin of a Rake by Cat Sebastian is $1.99! We had a guest review of this one from Heather Morris and they gave it an A-:
That quibble aside, there are so many things little things that I loved. Platonic male-female friendship. Sharpshooting and fake duels. Seduction-by-bookkeeping. A frankly excessive amount of kittens.
RECOMMENDED: The Queer Principles of Kit Webb by Cat Sebastian is $1.99! Lara wrote a Lightning Review for this on and gave it an A:
At a time when I didn’t have a lot of energy, I was gifted with pounds of joy, laughter, intrigue, and suspense. The Queer Principles of Kit Webb was a fresh approach to historical romance that made me fall in love with the genre again.
RECOMMENDED: Partners in Crime by Alisha Rai is $2.99! Lara read this one and gave it an A- in a Lightning Review:
Because of my absolute abhorrence of a Big Misunderstanding plot, I nearly didn’t come back to this book, so if that turns you off, too, don’t make my mistake. You’ll be rewarded with a fun, emotionally nuanced, and surprising heist adventure – a very memorable one!
A Sorceress Comes to Call by T. Kingfisher is $2.99! This is listed as a Kindle Daily Deal so definitely grab it today. This came out in August and we’re big fans of her books!
The Soldier’s Scoundrel by Cat Sebastian is $1.99! This is a gay historical romance with class differences, which readers seemed to really love in terms of the pairing. However, other reader mention having some problems with the book’s pacing.

How to End a Love Story by Yulin Kuang is $1.99! This released last spring and was mentioned in Hide Your Wallet. I believe Kuang is the one adapting and directing Emily Henry’s Beach Read as well.
RECOMMENDED: The Mimicking of Known Success by Malka Older is $2.99! We mentioned this on Hide Your Wallet and Carrie reviewed it and gave it a B+:
The writing technique is excellent, the worldbuilding interesting and poetic, the characters enjoyable to spend time with, and there’s tea. It was interesting, entertaining, and enjoyable – two thumbs up.
RECOMMENDED: We Could Be So Good by Cat Sebastian is $1.99! Thanks to everyone who let us know about this deal; fingers crossed it’s still active! Lara gave this one an A:
TL;DR: Read this book if you’d like to be swept along safely in a rising tide of emotion, predominantly love.
RECOMMENDED: You Should Be So Lucky by Cat Sebastian is $1.99! Big thank you to everyone who let us know about this one. Lara reviewed it and gave it a B:
I’m in an unusual position here. Usually, Cat Sebastian novels are endlessly charming and they have caused many a Bad Decisions Book Club over the years. This one didn’t quite hit that same high for me, but I did still enjoy it.
