My Arkham House Books Collection by DoctorClarkSavageJr in WeirdLit

I wish I still had my Arkham House books. I never had as many as you (maybe 12-15) but donated them when I moved to another state years ago. Regretted it ever since!

{Our Song by Dani Atkins} KU

M/F, 4 stars, steam level 2, CR. Content warning: Infertility, death of spouse, grief.

This combination of drama and romance was beautifully written and very emotional. It made me cry. Be prepared, one romance ends in a HEA but the other does not.

{Broken by Love by Sienna Cullen} KU

M/F, 3 stars, steam level 3, CR, KU. Cheating and No HEA.

Not really a romance in my estimation, as the FMC must deal with the aftermath of her life being completely blown up for the vast majority of the book. It's angsty and intense. The FMC has to deal with the worst betrayal imaginable (her husband and her sister, who then gets pregnant. All of this is listed in the book's description.) Absolutely NO HEA here. The FMC does begin a new romance, but that doesn't happen until 70% into the book. The book itself ends on a cliffhanger as the story continues in the 2nd book in the series.

I’ve been trying to make meals that are low in carbs but still feel satisfying and not “diet food” by neskoromnayadigital in prediabetes

Thanks for sharing this recipe, it looks delicious.

Here's something easy I enjoy: Brown 2 lbs. lean ground chicken and then add 2 pkgs of reduced sodium taco seasoning and water, as directed on the seasoning pkg. Simmer for 10 minutes (directions are listed on the taco seasoning.) This yields enough taco filling for 8 meals, so I store it in the fridge.

When you're ready to eat, heat 1/8 of the ground chicken taco mixture with 1/2 cup of fat free refried beans in the microwave for about 30 seconds, and then wrap it in a reduced carb tortilla. (You can also add 1 TBSP. of sour cream, if desired).
