I finished my new book nook, and also my book. READY OR NOT is a great example of how valuable #AuldLangSpine is, because I doubt I‘d even have noticed it if it hadn‘t appeared on @peanutnine ‘s list, and it was absolutely wonderful! I‘m so glad I have it in my life! I love a book that‘s fair to all its characters even when they can‘t be fair to themselves. Major props for being a trans-inclusive hetero pregnancy romance, too.

willaful Oh, I don't think I knew that. I haven't been a huge fan of hers but I'll have to give this one a try. 1w
xicanti @willaful I hadn‘t even heard of her before this. There‘s so much hetero contemporary romance that slides right under my radar. 1w
britt_brooke Read this recently for book club, and everyone really enjoyed!! 1w

xicanti @britt_brooke it‘s so good! 1w
peanutnine I'm so glad you enjoyed it! I appreciated the inclusivity as well 7d
peanutnine @willaful I don't know what all you've read of hers, but although I like all her cute romcoms that you can find on audible, I found this one had a different tone that I loved more 7d
willaful @peanutnine yeah, I did listen to some of those. Okay, but I like contemporary romance with more depth. 7d
peanutnine @willaful yes, that's a good way to put it. This one definitely has more depth to the characters and story 7d

I get to spend a few days with my very favourite reading buddy! He‘s helped me make a good start on READY OR NOT, which is great so far. Lots of nuance to everyone‘s emotional responses to this unplanned pregnancy.

I went into the library to pick up READY OR NOT (my penultimate book for #AuldLangSpine 2025!), but of course I couldn‘t resist this anthology of urban poetry from Africa off the New Stuff stand.

Welp I accidentally read the whole thing in one sitting and really enjoyed it. I liked that they communicated with each other for the most part and they built each other up. Win and Bo definitely became better people because they met each other.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Sometimes a book just hits you at the right time. May is so insane, this was the perfect #bookclub pick. Funny and thoughtful. A lovable, strong female lead, and two male characters that were likable even in uncomfortable/challenging circumstances. A believable, relatable scenario and a satisfying ending. And, OMG, Nurse Louise!

AileenRR Wasn‘t this good?!? I did want more of an epilogue, though. 1mo
britt_brooke @AileenRR I would LOVE an epilogue!! 1mo
JamieArc This one surprised me. I didn‘t expect to like it as much as I did. 1mo
britt_brooke @JamieArc Same! I‘d never read any of her books, and wasn‘t sure what to expect. 1mo
