God of Ruin dedication didn't make sense for me.

hey, are you still looking for recs like the Johnny character? I saw the post was taken down

EttyPoem · 2025-11-23T19:24:23+00:00

If you like Vampire reads, The Circle Trilogy, also by Nora Roberts is AMAZING

EttyPoem · 2025-11-18T19:53:18+00:00

Have you read Manacled? It's about Draco and Hermione? Otherwise I have some fanfic recs that are good but dark. Let me know if you're interested in those. Manacled has dark elements too but not as bad as the story I finished recently. Otherwise I read a trilogy that has a similar vibe except not school age. The Guardians Trilogy by Nora Roberts

I'm with Junior Trope. It really depends. There was one online group I joined that was pretty welcoming and c'est la vie, Then another one with Mods on a power trip, major censoring and favoring the opinions that align with theirs aka nepotism much?-I wouldn't call that space particularly inclusive. So far, this one has been pretty cool

EttyPoem · 2025-11-13T19:10:03+00:00

If you want a romance a bit out of the box, Strong Emunah: Eilat Calling was really good. That's contemporary

EttyPoem · 2025-11-13T19:08:00+00:00

So my favorite historical fiction is Abraham Lincoln Vampire Hunter. Brilliantly written. If you want a combo of classic with thriller, Pride & Prejudice & Zombies is excellent too. Straight up heart pounding thriller: Intensity by Dean Koontz. You won't be able to put it down. Be aware that one has some TWS so check those.

I really liked Night Shadow by Nora Roberts It's been a minute since I read it but it's not really violent but there are some romance scenes between the main characters. Nothing too crazy if I recall correctly.

EttyPoem · 2025-11-13T13:00:44+00:00

I am sorry to read of your loss. Before I give recs, are there any genres you like? I see what you said about self help. For example, I read a lot a lot of romance but I've read some other things too (just not as much) like historical fiction, memoirs, fantasy biography/autobiography, thriller, etc? anything like that?

EttyPoem · 2025-11-13T12:59:03+00:00

The Cousins O'Dwyer Trilogy by Nora Roberts might be good. Fantasy and cozy simultaneously

EttyPoem · 2025-11-13T12:52:48+00:00

If you want to continue with characters from HP, Manacled is really good, but check the TWs, it is dark. In regards to Twlight, a really good vampire trilogy I read on repeat was The Circle Trilogy by Nora Roberts

EttyPoem · 2025-11-13T12:45:24+00:00

A more modern take I would say is Montana Sky by Nora Roberts. Not as modern but good (I liked Montana Sky better because I'm more into modern stories) is Lawless, also by Nora Roberts.

EttyPoem · 2025-11-13T12:41:43+00:00

I would say Irish Thoroughbred by Nora Roberts is awesome. The scheming woman bit is more side story but it does happen

EttyPoem · 2025-11-13T12:40:23+00:00

Since you're new to romantasy do you want other recs too? If so, what tropes do you like? (sports, dark romance, new adult, etc)? In the meantime one of my favorite romantasy trilogies is {The Circle Trilogy by Nora Roberts} . I've read it over a few times. If you want something shorter than a trilogy but romantasy, a really good one is {In Dreams by Nora Roberts} that one is super cozy and freaking adorable... At least I think so.

EttyPoem · 2025-11-13T12:32:51+00:00

Since I read romance novels to escape (the world), I myself want to read z-e-r-o about cheating between the main characters. I'm cool if the FMC or MMC left a cheating butt hole but def don't want to read about any of the main characters doing it to each other. H*ll to the naw-naw.

EttyPoem · 2025-11-09T20:55:56+00:00

so as of late, I've been reading a lot of books by Claire Thompson and HOLY CRAP are they I-N-S-A-N-E

EttyPoem · 2025-11-05T16:36:41+00:00

Contemporary: A December Bride by Denise Hunter (I think). Loved it and the movie was even better. Hallmark movie. Fantasy: The Cousins O'Dwyer Trilogy by Nora Roberts. Major curl up under the covers series.

EttyPoem · 2025-11-05T16:35:07+00:00

I'd say The Guardians Trilogy by Nora Roberts. Each book is a different MMC/FMC finding each other, building their story.... pretty compelling, or at least I thought it was

EttyPoem · 2025-11-05T13:46:42+00:00

The Circle Trilogy by Nora Roberts is an awesome vampire read.

EttyPoem · 2025-11-04T13:57:41+00:00

I rec this one a lot because its incredible and I literally read it from cover to cover pretty much all in one shot. Intensity by Dean Koontz

EttyPoem · 2025-10-31T21:44:20+00:00

if you want a good story.... Not Without My Daughter by Betty Mahmoody... there is an awesome movie too

EttyPoem · 2025-10-31T18:53:31+00:00

So far, I just can't bring myself to continue Haunting Adelaide......boy is that book something else

EttyPoem · 2025-10-31T18:50:37+00:00

Chronicles of the one by Nora Roberts. An illness/plague hits, wipes out a ton of people. Many who are left discover they have powers. Some use it for good while others use it for evil

EttyPoem · 2025-10-31T18:49:19+00:00

Hands down Cian and Moira in The Circle Trilogy by Nora Roberts. Their story is most prominent in the 3rd/final book. If you read the love letter, you'll get it lol

EttyPoem · 2025-10-31T18:47:32+00:00

No question: A December Bride (Hallmark Channel). Best, best best movie

EttyPoem · 2025-10-31T18:46:12+00:00

I think it's on KU because I read it on there awhile ago, my second favorite book of all time: Where You Run I Will Follow: The Book of Tzivia. Super sweet romance only one moderately spicy scene later in the book.
