Dear Readers, what is your reading guilty pleasure?
Mine are Dark romance and MM romance. Two different sub-genres that I am increasingly reaching for. These are currently on my shelves and many more are on my kindle. If the two sub-genres are close to your heart, I'd be happy buddy read with you or talk about them. Just tell me.

A complex #LoveHatePairing of Elphaba and Glinda. Loved being able to take my older granddaughters to see Wicked on Broadway when each was a Senior in high school. Loved Part One of the movie version, too. May never read the book, though.

Hart & Mercy are a great example of a #LoveHatePairing in this favorite romantasy book that has a definite You‘ve Got Mail vibe. 💌
“Hundreds of years later, historians and scholars would look back upon this moment. This decision that, one day, would topple an empire. What a strange choice, they would whisper. Why would he do this? Why, indeed. After all, vampires know better than anyone how important it is to protect their hearts. And love, understand, is sharper than any stake.”

In Ovid's "Metamorphoses," love and hate are deeply intertwined with the central theme of transformation. The plays A Midsummer Night's Dream (Pyramus&Thisbe)
and Romeo and Juliet (based on Metamorphoses) are more similar than they appear. Both, written at the same time, deal with forbidden romance and power and control. One play having a comedic end, while the other ends in tragedy, are partly the same tale with a different outcome.

#FeelinTheLove Day 16: Quite the #LoveHatePairing with this #ToB25 title with Phoebe‘s cheating ex-hubby. I can see this being made into a series. Set against the desert last night as husband and I watched a Chinese concert pianist and Chinese dancers perform with the Jebel Hafeet Mountain (UNESCO heritage site) as the backdrop. Perfect post Valentine and CNY celebration. A good open-air wedding venue too. My sky cashmere shawl matches book cover.
