So I ordered this book on the 3rd (yay Barnes and Noble coupons!) with 3-5 business day shipping, and an eta of the 21st. 🤨 It arrived yesterday 07/17.🙄 #tea
Having a play with the 1st #fourfoursin21 prompt set - just in one genre. 2020's been all about love stories for me. Ideas:
Revolution: Revolution by Jennifer Donnelly, because why not? Or A Rogue of One's Own.
Memorial: Donna Kauffman died 2020, so read Sugar Rush or Bad Boys in Kilts. Alternatively, Naked in Death, which has a funeral meet-cute.
Constellation: Written in the Stars is the obvious choice!
Calligraphy: Love Lettering.
For those interested in #romantsy or the state of diversity in the reading world, the Ripped Bodice has their annual Diversity Survey our for 2018... it‘s not pretty https://bookriot.com/2019/03/05/the-2018-state-of-racial-diversity-in-romance-pu...
I know it‘s 10 years old, but it‘s soooo funny and awesome! Every romance fan should read this. I wish they‘d write an updated version. It explains everything I love about romance, while acknowledging the cringeworthy parts with humor. #romance #romantsy #nonfiction
I‘m on page 2 and I‘m already crying I‘m laughing so hard! This book gets me and my romance loving heart 😂
This book is delightful and funny and is a smart take on the genre of romance and has given me a hell of a lot of respect for the genre. It's also given me a game for my book group this evening as we discuss Julie Garwood's the Bride and romance in general!
This is such a fun and informative read all at once. Really enjoyed this. This is from the library bit I may have to get my own. I hope I can find something with similar info a bit more current in the future though (this is 9 years old now). Definitely recommended for anyone looking for a fun and informal lesson on romance novels or anyone who enjoys the Smart Bitches Trashy Books blog.
Free romance books, I haven‘t read most of these, and can‘t verify how log they‘ll be free but if you got to http://omgreads.com/escape-into-books/ they have a list of literally 100 free #romantsy ebooks. Happy reading! #litsyafterdark
Here are the prompts for #RomBkLove if you want to play along. I first saw it on Instagram from the Smart Bitches but it is VERY active on Twitter. I usually stay away from Twitter but quickly fell down a rabbit hole when searching the #.
Join us for a month-long celebration of our favourite romance books! #RomBkLove is the brainchild of @Anacoqui and this year she invited a bunch of bloggers to host a theme. Stay for a day, flit in and out, or participate for the entire month — it‘s up to you. Just use the hashtag #RomBkLove. I love the line-up and can‘t wait to see your recommendations! #romantsy
#violet is my favorite color! But I don‘t seem to have very many books that shade in my collection. Luckily I have these two: Take The Cannoli by Sarah Vowell and Beyond Heaving Bosoms by Sarah Wendell & Candy Tan. Both books have made me 😂with laughter. And learning about the #magicalwang in Beyond Heaving Bosoms is a gift that keeps on giving.

Hey guys! I disappeared for a month there as this whole working two jobs thing has been a bit stressful. And I haven't had nearly enough time for reading! I did finish this hilarious book, however. I laughed and c&p especially strange passages to my sweetheart. He enjoyed it as well!
I had to show you guys the frankly adorable picture of "the romance reader." ❤️
It's kind of sad that romance readers get painted this way. It's silly. I've known men that read them!
Alright, #romansty, I need your help. In honor of the holiday I've decided to read my very first "proper" romance novel. I've read lots of YA romance, some Urban Fantasy a naughty scene or two, and countless love stories imbedded into other genres, but I've never read an actual real life romance novel. I'd like to change that. Give me some advice, ladies (or dudes, I'm not one to discriminate).
Lol. "Man titty." First page, and I love this book already. #romansty
My #JanuaryTBR is mostly comics. I super need to work through my ComiXology backlog. It's getting out of hand. I keep buying things on sale and letting them pile up. I'm becoming a digital hoarder, and while it is tidier than the alternative, I need to actually read some of these damn books. #readjanuary
I've been reading the romance novel since I was in high school, and many of my friends teased me for it. Reading this Guide was like letting go of all those memories and loving romance for how good it is!
After years of being considered the weirdo in my family, I am vindicated. Someone finally agrees with the extremity of my feelings on nuts in baked goods.
