Kiss Her Once for Me by Alison Cochrun is $1.99! I remember Aarya being excited for this one in Hide Your Wallet, but it seems like there was too much emphasis on pop culture and not enough on the actual relationship.
Before I Let Go by Kennedy Ryan is $3.99! This one came out in the middle of November and was mentioned on Hide Your Wallet. It is book one in the Skyland series.
I know many romance readers are also ritual re-readers, with books they re-read or seek out at different times of year. Some folks read The Hogfather every holiday season, for example. Other people re-read a specific book once a year, but the timing is more flexible, and might be whenever the mood strikes them. I think that’s so neat, both as a unique way to celebrate a book that is precious to a person, and that … Continue reading What Are Your Annual Re-Reads?→
Once again, I challenged our reviewers to pick their favorite (only one!) book they read this year. However, Sarah changed the rules up and said everyone’s favorite read had to be a 2023 release, but that they can have two bonus pick for books not released this year. Here are our favorites of the year! We’d also love to hear about your best read of 2023! Since Sneezy is recommending webtoons, I’ll drop them here. … Continue reading Our Favorite Reads of 2023→
Scandal in Spring by Lisa Kleypas is $2.99! This is book four in the Wallflowers Quartet. I can’t remember if this one or the first one was my least favorite out of the four, but that being said…they’re all very good.
Infamous by Lex Croucher is $2.99! This is a sapphic Regency romance and was mentioned on Hide Your Wallet and Book Beat. Both Shana and Tara were really looking forward to this one.
RECOMMENDED: The Adventures Of Amina Al-Sirafi by Shannon Chakraborty is $3.99! Thank you to everyone who told us about this sale; fingers crossed it’s still valid. Carrie squeed about this one:
I adored every part of this story – the stakes, the world-building, the language, the characters, and the action. I can’t wait to read more of it.
Act Your Age, Eve Brown by Talia Hibbert is $1.99! It’s the third book in The Brown Sisters series, which we’ve all enjoyed at the site. Do you have a favorite of the three? Mine might be Take a Hint, Dani Brown.

If you’re new to Hide Your Wallet, this is where we list new releases we’re pretty excited for in the coming month. Each reviewer has a book maximum (five per person), and we’ve separated HYW into two parts. The first HYW of the month will cover books that release from the 1st to the 14th. The second HYW will cover books released from the 15th to the end of the month. We also think this … Continue reading January 2023 New Releases, Part One→
Get a Life, Chloe Brown saw my expectations’ proffered hand and kissed it gently, and then proceeded to charm their pants off. In a tent. With s’mores. (Not with s’mores, because s’mores apparently are not a thing in the UK.) This metaphor got away from me, but you get the idea. This book is outstanding.
