RECOMMENDED: The Worst Guy by Kate Canterbary is 99c! This is the only non-KDD on the list. It also made our Best Reviews of 2022 list. Elyse gave it an A:
The Worst Guy was the first book I read in 2022, and I hope it’s setting the tone for the rest of the year because I loved it. It’s an enemies-to-lovers story with tons of competence porn. It’s also The Grumpy One/…the Introverted One, I guess? There’s no sunshine here, and I honestly appreciate a heroine who doesn’t have to be the sunshiney one.

So she decides to write what the market is buying and she has the … Continue reading Writing Mr Wrong by Kelley Armstrong →

RECOMMENDED: Romantic Comedy by Curtis Sittenfeld is $2.99! Elyse gave this one an A:
Celebrity romance is one of my favorite tropes, and for me this book stands out. Romantic Comedy features a hero who is not purely defined by celebrity status, gives readers a deep dive into a world I found fascinating, contains an epistolary courtship, and at times is laugh-out-loud funny.

RECOMMENDED: The Blighted Stars by Megan E. O’Keefe is $2.99! Elyse loved this scifi with romantic elements and gave it an A, but gave a warning:
The Blighted Stars is the first book in a series, so we don’t get a ton of resolution in this novel, romantic or otherwise. If you’re looking for a complete romantic arc, don’t start this book.

Incense and Sensibility by Sonali Dev is $2.99! It’s book three in Dev’s Rajes series, which is full of Jane Austen retellings. Dev’s books can get pretty emotional, so I suggest checking content warnings.
