#DynamicDs

One of the #Dazzling books that Judith Krantz wrote in the 1980s-90s that “helped define a new sub-genre of the romance novel - the bonkbuster or "sex-and-shopping" novel.” I both read her books & watched the dazzling mini-series & movies that were made from them back in the day. ✨?✨

Some Kind of Magic | Mary Ann Marlowe

pick

I read about this somewhere, got it from the library and read it at night before sleeping when The Light Pirate stressed me out too much. A light romance ( the male character‘s inability to remember condoms I think was meant to be scatterbrained but after reading Ejaculate Responsibly it just feels tone deaf)

Prairiegirl_reading Reviews like this are so helpful! Small details like this annoy me enough to DNF so now I know this won‘t work for me. 😊 The light pirate is a bit stressful isn‘t it? 16h

mcctrish @Prairiegirl_reading the first time it was fine, he wasn‘t expecting to hook up, the second time he was prepared but where were they, every other time he had to be prompted. They were there but WHY was she having to say anything. Condoms are not a running gag! My heart was beating too hard a lot of the time for The Light Pirate ( when it wasn‘t breaking) but it is soooo good 16h

ChaoticMissAdventures @mcctrish oh that would annoy me! I want condom use in books to be how I like it in real life, just be prepared, put it on, and get on with the good stuff! 15h

so-so

Cooper‘s books definitely fall into the #GuiltyPleasure category. Despite being a National Treasure, I don‘t think she‘s that great a writer, but the books are fun, if a little on the long side - do editors fear to tell their top authors to make cuts?

mcipher Oh I used to LOVE Red Dress Ink! I was so sad when they got rid of the imprint. This reminds me that I should look and see how many I didn‘t get to and finish my long ago goal to read them all. 3d

TheBookgeekFrau @mcipher Glad to be of service 😂 2d

Before I Met You: A Novel | Lisa Jewell

I liked this; giving it a pick. Heard say that this might not be the author‘s best work so I guess I am impressed enough to try more of her stories.

I laughed at times, and I cried at the end. I appreciated that explanations were deftly unrolled as the tangled histories were discovered. This book was what I needed right now. #Apr2025 Book37

Pic of Wisteria, I adore Wisteria and would LOVE to have some in my yard. 🌺❤️
