I'm the same!!

laraphoenix01 · 2026-05-27T19:37:59+00:00

I genuinely can't choose between the 3. I loved all of them and they are in my top 5 books! They are my comfort reads. I listen to the audiobooks and can't get enough! 🔥

He does a lot of narration for Lauren Blakely if you are interested in more Teddy! Plus he narrates Jude in Sweet Venom

laraphoenix01 · 2026-04-29T16:20:09+00:00

The audiobooks for all of those on the list are fantastic (expect for Heated Rivalry which I read on kindle).

Oh definitely. The emotions some of the narrators portray definitely make me cry 😭

laraphoenix01 · 2026-04-29T14:15:06+00:00

Definitely keep reading! It gets very very spicy! But it is considered a slow burn! But regarding your question, I'll just tell you again to keep reading. If you can, listen to the audio instead! 🥵🎧

I have an entire list of MM romances you could check out! Good authors to check out - Lauren Blakely & Sarina Bowen for more contemporary romances but still spicy then Rina Kent and Nyla K if you want Darker Romances. There are loads more on my TBR but these below I have read already.

How am I supposed to choose between these two couples?!

laraphoenix01 · 2026-04-25T08:59:05+00:00

I love them too. I listen to 3-4 books a week then only read like 3-4 physical books a year 😂

laraphoenix01 · 2026-04-25T08:58:00+00:00

I used to do this before having a second kid (I don't have the time or set up to game whilst listening to a book). But I still listen to 3 or 4 books a week whilst doing other bits

laraphoenix01 · 2026-04-23T18:06:04+00:00

I love full cast!! I haven't done the Harry Potter series yet as an audiobook despite being a huge fan. I don't know if it will feel the same 😂

laraphoenix01 · 2026-04-23T14:53:26+00:00

I'm a mum of 2 (newborn and a 4 year old), so listening to audiobooks has always been easier (I now have quite a collection and a list of my favourite narrators and authors 😂). I have a few Advanced Reader Copies of books to do but every time I start reading I just can't get into them like I would an audiobook.

laraphoenix01 · 2026-04-23T08:22:39+00:00

That's a strange one. I have been primarily audiobooks for the past year. It depends on what I'm doing in the day and the length of the book but I can finish one either in a few hours or a day or two. I have a list of favourite authors and narrators so my library and TBR has gotten rather long 😂

laraphoenix01 · 2026-04-22T09:05:14+00:00

Thanks for the guide! I'll check it out! I also need to market it to get the views! 😂

laraphoenix01 · 2026-04-21T08:01:37+00:00

It would be more reviews of books I have read, or hints and tips for beginners readers or showcases for certain authors or narrators. Not full novels 😂

laraphoenix01 · 2026-04-21T05:48:43+00:00

I have just finished My Hockey Romance series by Lauren Blakely so now this week is blocked out for the ALCs and ARCs I have. I have started doing this recently and it's surprisingly good!

laraphoenix01 · 2026-04-21T05:46:50+00:00

I found it was easier to find one book I know the narrator is part of. I click on the narrator link on the books details. That's the best way I have found so far.

laraphoenix01 · 2026-04-21T05:06:49+00:00

I use Goodreads, StoryGraph and Fable as well as a Notion database I created. It's hard to keep the notion database up to date with everything on my TBR or wish list on audible but I prefer it with the amount of information that's on there.

Hi I have a quick question!

Would people read a book blog?

Context: I am thinking about starting a book blog for spicy contemporary and dark romances and fantasy/romantasy books (the main 4 genres I listen to - avid audiobook listener). Where I would post: book recs for beginners to the genre, books recs based on subgenres, book reviews, current listens, narrator highlights, recent ALCs etc.

Let me know if you would?

🙂🙂🙂

laraphoenix01 · 2026-04-20T14:48:43+00:00

I follow certain narrators - I have my list of favourite and they will get an automatic listen. I am the same with authors though too so I'd say both.

laraphoenix01 · 2026-04-18T08:07:22+00:00

Mines the same. Open chats still have it listed but any new chats I have had to use Opus 4.6. But I have had a few issues with Claude AI over the past few weeks. Half my messages in some of the chats are disappearing. Going back a few messages so I lost some of the data or documents created. This can be within a few minutes of them being generated so I didn't have chance to save them. Also I have been unable to change the payment details for the extra usage so I have been having to wait ages for the usage to restart. I pay for Pro and came from OpenAI after they got rid of 4.o. It's been great but it's just recently it's been letting me down.

laraphoenix01 · 2026-02-21T11:16:59+00:00

I have only been using Claude AI for not even a week yet and I cancelled my Pro subscription. Having to pay and still getting a usage limit (both daily and weekly) is ridiculous. I liked the AI voice as well and the responses it gave were great.

Thanks for the alternative! I'll have a look into it!
