Welcome back to Get Rec’d, as we creep every closer to 100 of these things! This time, there’s a mystery and a romance for fiction options. For non-fiction, we have some kinky niche history and an essay collection by trans and gender-nonconforming writers. Get any good recommendations lately? Let us know in the comments!
This Rec League was sent in by Anne: I’ve been re-reading Susanna Kearsley’s books about the Jacobites was reminded about how very unlucky the Stuarts were in their efforts to regain the throne in England. I am interested in books about what might have happened in the Stuarts were successful or if Queen Anne had named her half-brother as her successor instead of her German cousin. On a similar note, I’m also interested in books … Continue reading The Rec League: Alternate History
This Rec League came from our staff reviewer Shana: Have we done a Rec League on books where the couple’s first time having sex is awkward or bad and they had to learn how to give each other pleasure? I feel like I remember us talking about those romances but I’m not sure what we might have called the Rec League. I love historical married couple romances, and this trope feels somewhat adjacent. Carrie: Jennifer … Continue reading The Rec League: Awkward Sex
Happy Sunday! We have two different non-fiction options, some fun sci-fi, and even a romance novel. I rarely pick romances for this feature, so it always feels like a big deal to me when I do. Do you have any recommendations you’d like to share? Leave ’em in the comments!
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!
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!
Welcome back, everyone! Wow, we are quickly closing in on 100 of these! I can hardly believe it. This time, I have an even split of fiction and non-fiction. All are quite different from one another. Have you received any good book recs lately? Share them in the comments!
Welcome back, everyone! I surprisingly only have one non-fiction recommendation. I can hardly believe it. However, I have two mysteries below and they are very different from one another. Any recommendations you’d like to pass along? Leave a comment below!
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

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
