    SOMEONE SAID IT, YES, the smut has taken over, and I feel like we've really lost the ROMANCE factor. Don't get me wrong, I'm no prude, but Grandma's "dirty books" were so much superior to most of ours when it came to the angst and longing and such that really MAKES a "romance", for me.
    I've even turned to reading a lot of clean/slow burn/closed door stuff lately, just trying to find something that really shows the relationship building in a meaningful way.
    Video idea, maybe? Maybe one with "low on smut, heavy on romance" favorites, and one with the best of both worlds?

    I know this is older but I think Shelly Laurenston is for a very specific person. I’ve felt that about every book I’ve read by her. These are very chaotic but I love the hero in book 2 who is a panda. He’s the sweetest and most mellow guy.

    Paused about a minute in to tell you our husbands literally pick books the same way. I just read Protector Cowboy by Hope Ford (don't do it. spare yourself) solely because of my husband. He opened Apple Books, saw it was in one of those "top whatever" lists, and he needed to know if it was actually good. Therefore it went on my TBR.

    I‘m currently also getting back into PNR and I recently read Heather Guerre‘s wolf shifters/vampires series Tooth & Claw. So so good! Really hit that Twilight for adults spot. And really well written as well. I flew threw the 3 books that are already out in 3 days (more books are apparently coming). All three are on KU. Highly highly recommend, especially for the current season because all of the Forks vibes in this.

    I was gonna say I could recommend a shifter series for haden (with like foxes n stuff) but it's wouldn't be a recommendation because they're not exactly... good 😅 I'd love to see this again where he genuinely chooses what he thinks you'll like - it'd be interesting to get his take on your taste, having not read most of the books you love, and he might pick out some gems that weren't on your radar

    Would definitely be interesting to see how his ideas on book you would like might contrast with his idea on books you wouldn't like-and/or to see how his picks do or don't change if/when given more informed freedom and less time constraints or what-such with which to choose your reads in, or maybe to see him challenged to pick books for you based on certain specific criteria even. idekkk-honestly, I'm reallycjust here for seeing you two's energies playing off each other, anytime; it's such good vibes ^-^
    Bless your hearts and souls! 😊
