Behind A Book

As I make my way through every monster romantasy I can get my hands on, I've been thinking about which monster I think I'd fall for in these universes. And shit man, that's a tough decision. Don't even get me started on alien romantasy! Damn all you freaky authors who fuel my lusty daydream needs 😂

Main characters Lea (human) and Rick (minotaur) are lounging and cuddling in the bed of a pick up truck while star gazing.

The MMC is kind and compassionate, and willing to do whatever it takes to keep Lea in Hallow's Cove.

Did I mention I'm a sucker for flowers and Minotaurs? For me, this book's romance had me crying, laughing, and clenching my thighs.

Get it. Read it. Let's talk about it!

The Minotaur stands in front of the FMC in jeans, a button up, and apron with a paint roller while looking over his shoulder at the FMC

The romance, consent, and duty Rick provides is 👨‍🍳😘 chef's kiss.
And Lea! My heart stayed with her, through it all.
The FMC is strong and resilient, who just needs to find her space.

🧵 I finished the ARC for Hallow Cove's Screwed by the Minotaur by @jeniferwood.bsky.social

It was supposed to be a one-night stand... but now they're next-door neighbors.

The Hallow's Cove series has been so fun to read. But this one! Oh my word.

Signing up to get ARCs from some of my favorite authors. Personally, I find it intimidating to do. Why choose lil ol me? But then I remember I'm a badass who likes badass books by badass authors. Fingers crossed I get selected 🤞

And I did. Totally worth it all. Just back to regular ol' boobs today, though.

Mine look fantastic today, too. It's a no bra weekend for me. Maybe I'll get some dribbling moans once I'm done running errands. It really is a situation that needs to fix itself. Fantastic boobs deserve to be worshipped.

I finished The Bromance Book Club this morning, bawling of course. While making breakfast I turned on Ray Lamontagne.
Lemme tell ya, his music is a great soundtrack for that book. Let It Be Me was the song that made me feel this way.
What artist/album do you feel pairs well with your current read?

I've read a few books recently where the FMC has feelings and thoughts that are so close to my own, it triggered me. It made me envious of the lives they get to lead within those feelings and thoughts. Reading has been my only escape from this world lately until it brings it right back into my face.

But where is the lie? No where, because these are truths.

Life had run away from me. I've been so busy and stressed, that I'm barely reading at all! I did start writing though!

In the meantime, what's your favorite space travel-related, science fiction book? I need a break from smut. It's all blending together now.

I am definitely going to check this out. I'm a project manager, so it'll probably help me in my career too!

Good to know. I think i can work with that.

There is more than likely going to be some spicy scenes. But! Another great idea. Keep 'em coming 😂

That's a good idea. I do have ADHD and will need some breaks from writing the book. I'll give this a try when I get stuck or feel uninspired.

I decided to start writing a book. I've thought about it for so long that I'm biting the bullet and doing it. As of right now, it's not my intention to ever publish it. Mainly because I currently cannot handle my art being perceived by the world. Maybe I'll get over that by the time i finish it. 💁‍♀️

Life has been hectic. I haven't been reading as much! But! Work had been slow... so i pulled up Libby on my desktop and am reading some fantasy romance instead of listening to audiobooks. My poor ears need a break from headphones for a bit.

Since my library is getting rid of Hoopla in May, I'm reading all the books I can before it's gone. They have books on there that my library doesn't. I need to get library cards from SF and LA to help me broaden my search for all the smutty books 🤣

🧵/3
5. Look in your email for your library card number. You can borrow items using that number and your new password."

🧵/2
3. Browse until you find a title you would like to read, then either “get” or “reserve”
that book.
4. Choose create a virtual card and complete the details in the form. You will need to enable permission to use your specific location, just one time, for the creation of your library card.

🧵/1 California State Library Palace Project app for more books with no library card:
"Five steps to access California’s Bookshelf and create a virtual library card:
1. Download the free Palace Project app on your device.
2. In the app, use “find my library” function to find “California’s Bookshelf.”

Hey there fellow book lovers!
How do I be part of the ARC club?

Please give me all the advice on how to do it, and who you love to receive ARCs from!

I'm about to be real house poor, so I need something to keep me inside, not spending as much money 😉

My local library is getting rid of our Hoopla accounts. Not enough people were using it. Only 10% of e-content usage was from Hoopla. It was just too expensive to keep 😭 time to see what other CA counties offer it and I'll go get library cards there.

I joined a book club! It's on Discord with occasional meetups. It's my first time in a book club. I'm slowing down the audiobook speed (to 1.25x) for this month's book so I can really digest it. I'm excited to chat over it after I'm done reading it.

This month's book is Quicksilver by Callie Hart.

I think the same way! I mean, NOW i see why it's the O hug X kiss. But nooo. Our way makes more sense lol
