Get Rec’d with Amanda – Volume 93
Welcome back to Get Rec’d! For this edition, I will warn that there are a couple titles related to tech and politics. One is fiction and the other is non-fiction. That may not be everyone’s bag right now. I also have a new mystery with a twist and Sarah popped in with a recommendation. What recommendations have your received lately? Let us know in the comments!
Get Rec’d with Amanda – Volume 91
Welcome back, everyone! It’s Pride Month and I have two recommendations that you might want to put on your radar, especially if you’re doing any kind of reading challenge for the month. I also have some non-fiction about a musical era very near and dear to my hear, and some fantasy. Any recommendations you’d like to pass along? Leave ’em in the comments!

The Rec League: Grumpy/Sunshine with Grumpy Heroines
This Rec League was sent in from Cassidy: I’m looking for a book recommendation (recommendations if I’m being honest) for a book with a reverse grumpy x sunshine relationship. As much as I appreciate the brooding, cold, grumpy hero, I prefer romance where it’s the woman who is the grumpy or closed off one while the guy is social, pleasant to be around, funny, and an overall ball of sunshine/ a golden retriever—but books with … Continue reading The Rec League: Grumpy/Sunshine with Grumpy Heroines

The Rec League: Cricket Romances
This request came from Vicki. Thanks, Vicki! I was chatting with someone in India who is unhappy with their cricket team and remembering playing cricket as a kid. I’m wondering if there are any good cricket romances. Sarah: I am stumped! Amanda: Same! If any exist, they’re most certainly indie pubbed or not readily available in the US, given that Jodi McAlister’s reality TV romances were Aussie-only for a while, given that her publisher wasn’t … Continue reading The Rec League: Cricket Romances

The Rec League: 20th Century Sapphic Romance
This Rec League is from Alex. Thanks, Alex! I’ve been on the hunt for sapphic historical romances that take place between the 1950s-80s. Outside of those date parameters is fine, but 20th century preferred. I just want historical happy queers that don’t die tragically. If it helps, I loved Lev AC Rosen’s Evander Mills series, and Cat Sebastian’s We Could Be So Good, I just need more lesbians (who doesn’t?) Amanda: Last Night at the … Continue reading The Rec League: 20th Century Sapphic Romance
Get Rec’d with Amanda – Volume 87
Hi, everyone! Welcome back! This was not intentional, but three of the four books are sci-fi and/or have something to do with the end of the world. I tend to compile the selections in the order I’ve seen them or given them, making my way through an updated list. And clearly, my mind keeps turning into post-apocalyptic themes. Apropos of nothing, I’m sure! Have you received any good book recommendations lately? Let us know in … Continue reading Get Rec’d with Amanda – Volume 87
