Welcome to Litsy!

Something about me: romance novels leave me utterly disappointed and full of contempt. But I keep giving them a shot because hey, I‘m a hopeless romantic.

This charming, refreshing modern romantic comedy features a young Canadian Muslim woman juggling independence and familial obligation while being confronted with racism, Islamophobia and of course, love. Finally, a romance novel with wit, heart, and substance!

One Night (Hand) Stand is an #ARC provided by the author. #RomCom

Five Broken Blades, #audiobook, I'm reading it because a friend recommended it. Incidentally, the same friend who recommended Fourth Wing and I think we really don't have the same taste in books. I'm underwhelmed.

Both first books in series.

Was it historically accurate? Not entirely.
Was it fun to read and listen to? Yes!! Yes!!
Would I recommend it to anyone who likes queer #HistoricalRomance #RomCom? Of course!

Trying to read at the dog park but distracted by all the cuteness.

Really liked this romance book! Daphne is a write who submits her book under a male name. It gets picked up and now she has to hire someone to be Zane. Mostly set in Canada but they do go on a book tour through the US.

Enjoyed this sweet hockey romance! It‘s a fake dating and grumpy-sunshine, but it‘s also clean, so if you must have spice in your romance, then this might not be for you.

Fun and cute romance featuring a single dad, a woman with a disability, and the service dog(s) that bring them together. A little, I don‘t know, childish? In parts…. Not sure how to describe it. But overall a fun read. Shown here with my Stella.
