#WhatchaReading ? I enjoyed Come As You Are by Jess K. Hardy, a romance with middle-aged characters! (Though still in great shape.) FMC is trying to save her father's ski hill, which her evil corporate ex is trying to buy out (boo!); MMC is a former addict who runs a sober living home and wants his guys to work for her. I liked how hard they work on overcoming their fears and communicating.
@willaful oh, I’ve got that on my “look out for” list. Actual characters of my age is a major selling point. I’m listening to Susan Lee’s “The Name Drop” which started delightfully but is reaching the hard part of the plot now. @romancebooks
@willaful I just finished reading Serena Bell’s “Hott Take”, the second in her “Hott Springs Eternal” series; it’s a good fake engagement/marriage of convenience book, definitely not the expected resolution of the “faking it” part, but really sweet characters. Bell’s Rush Creek setting is a fun place to go back to, as well. @romancebooks
@willaful Now that’s done I’m picking up Chanel Cleeton’s “Fly With Me” which I haven’t read enough of to talk about yet…@romancebooks
@willaful I finished _Murder in Belgravia_, by Lynn Brittney; very much a historical procedural, set in Edwardian London. Read it in one long gulp, and now I'm struggling to write the review. Positive: a lot of historical fact woven into the narrative in ways that make sense. Negative: setting up a love triangle for the series, and a slight tendency towards exposition..
@willaful @romancebooks I'm still re-reading bits of my favorite Jacqueline Gilbert category romances. This time: Country Cousin, one of the few not set in the world of theatre
@ScribblingSandy I don't think I've ever read her. Theatre book sound cool!
@willaful I love her books so much! Laura Vivanco got me hooked on her when she gifted me Poppy Girl in December 2009. I guess it must have been a present for finishing my PhD. I need to check the card; I still have it somewhere
@willaful @romancebooks I'm still not reading new, but on a road trip I relistened to Bookshops and Bonedust by Travis Baldree, this time with my hubby. Still delightful.
