If ever there was a time to read books about witches, vampires, zombies and werewolves, it's the day before Halloween! So, with that in mind, get ready to 1-click some spooktacular romance reads. You'll thank me later:  

Time to get those 1-clicking fingers ready, because there are a ton of HOT romance novel deals today. Get 'em while they're cheap! But make sure you check the sale prices before you download. These sales often disappear without warning. (Never hesitate! If you want it, click fast!) So, without further ado, here they are: 

Once every couple of months or so, someone who doesn't read romance (often a white man, for some reason) pops up on social media with a hot take about how romance novels don't really need to have happy endings (known from here on out as HEA) to still be considered romance novels. Whenever this happens, Romance Twitter (Romancelandia) comes out in full force to stomp on the unfortunate idiot's throat. It never helps. The idiot just gets louder and louder, proudly proclaiming their ignorance to the world. Well, apparently, last week it was time for another unfortunate idiot to step up and proclaim (as loudly as possible) that romance novels don't need a HEA--and further, that romance novels are slut shame-y, and that it's gross to assume all HEAs should include a paired-off couple. Other various bullshit was also spouted. I'm proud to say that I didn't directly address the idiot. But, today, I'm going to debunk every stupid thing the idiot said so that when this happens again next month (and it will happen again next month), I can just point them to my reply instead of repeating myself. So, here it goes:   

As you know, my epic book reading slump rages on. So, for today's list, I thought I'd fondly remember the most recent 15 five-star books I read and reviewed on the site. (Because who knows when I'll find another one, you know? Things are looking pretty grim right now.) Without further ado, here they are: 

It's sale day!!! Get your 1-clicking fingers ready, 'cause there's some great stuff here. And make sure you check prices before downloading. These sales can disappear in the blink of an eye. Happy reading: 

I used to be one of those people who never DNF'd a book. Not ever. I read to the bitter end, even if I was hating every minute of it. I don't do that anymore, and you shouldn't either. Here's why:  

I've talked about neighbor romance before, but I think it's WAY past time to update that list. Wouldn't you agree? If not, you will after reading about THESE neighbors:  

Get your 1-clicking fingers ready, because it's time to load up those Kindles with these hot romance novels. Get 'em while they're cheap! But make sure you check prices before you download. These sales end quickly and without warning sometimes. Here we go: 

Given that I am in the midst of an unprecedented book slump, I'm hoping y'all can help me decide what to read next (since I no longer trust my own judgement). I'll let you know what's sitting on my Kindle right now, and if you could let me know your picks, I'd appreciate it. Thanks in advance!!  Here it goes: 

I might have mentioned that I have a weakness for grumpy heroes, right? Because I really, really do. Grumpy bosses, in particular, are some of my favorites. With that in mind, here are my picks for the 11 hottest grumpy bosses in romance today. Happy reading: 

Get your 1-clicking fingers ready, 'cause there's some GREAT romance novel sales today. But remember, always check prices before you download. These things are fleeting:  

I'm in a horrific book slump, y'all. It's unprecedented. I've marked so many books DNF (did not finish) lately that if I was to stop and review them all, I'd never get anything else done. So, because I have a life, I'm just going to give you a brief report on everything I've DNF'd lately. Now, please note, none of these books were poorly written. They just weren't for me. But I'm including buy links because one person's crapola is another's cat nip. (I don't judge. You do you.) Here it goes (takes deep breath):  

I'm in a horrible book slump, y'all. I've lost count of the books I've DNF'd lately. And now I'm paralyzed by indecision and I'm not even sure what to pick out of my TBR pile. So, all I can do at this point to break the slump is to read a sure thing. That's right, I'm going to re-read books that I've loved to help get me out of this hole until I can find my next new great read. That said, here are the re-read favorites I'm considering. And, if you haven't read these, I suggest you get to your Kindles immediately and start 1-clicking. You might want to have these on file for when YOU find yourself in a horrible book slump:     

It's 1-clicking time again, y'all. But make sure you check these prices before you download. Sales end without much warning: 

Look, I've talked about this before. There was a rather tongue-in-cheek post a while back about things males writers do in their books that would NEVER happen in romance novels (and for GOOD reason). I've also talked about characters who were completely let down by their writers. I've also mentioned things that the television and movie industry can learn from romance novels. But lately, I'm seeing more and more examples of writing atrocities, 99% of which are being committed by men (sorry guys), that could've (should've) been avoided. There's also A LOT of disrespect going on in the fandoms towards shippers (i.e.: folks who want to see a particular set of characters get involved in a romantic relationship). But guys, I'm here to tell you, embracing romance novels and shippers is a good move for EVERYONE. And now, more than ever, it's time to try new things. Here's what I mean:
