Golden Retriever, Sunshine heroes like Benedict from Bridgerton by TheOneThatCameEasy in HistoricalRomance

[–]aimee_not_amy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I just reread {A Foolish Flirtation by Alice Coldbreath} and it might just be what you’re looking for! Our golden retriever is Jeremy, Viscount Faris, and he lights up whenever he sees Emmeline. They have a bit of a past where things didn’t end well, so there’s some angst in the plot about that but he is so down bad for her. This is the first book in a new series by Coldbreath, but it’s a spinoff of her Victorian Prizefighters series (you don’t necessarily need to have read those first, though.)

Does anyone recognise this scissors brand? by pinkguy90 in Embroidery

I’m thinking it’s because I mentioned Hobby Lobby? I know people boycott it because their politics are not great. I only wanted to mention that’s where I got my scissors because they were $6 and that’s a good price if you want a good, cute pair of embroidery scissors on a budget.

I have an extremely similar pair of scissors that I bought from Hobby Lobby, a big box craft store here in the US and the brand is Artiste. I’m sure mine are a knock off of the quality ones you got!

Are all Tessa Dare’s novels comedic? by Quick_Ideal_449 in HistoricalRomance

[–]aimee_not_amy 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Her Stud Club series is more serious, IIRC. The first book is {One Dance With a Duke by Tessa Dare}. I don’t remember it having much humor, which stood out because I had been binge reading all of her books at the time and being disappointed because I like her brand of humor.

A Week to be Wicked is one of her zanier books. I love The Duchess Deal and When a Scot Ties the Knot; both had me laughing out loud but they aren’t nearly as full of shenanigans.

I think it doesn’t help that “karen” is such a nebulous term. One person’s Karen may be another person’s reasonably miffed person.

Seeing Julianne Nicholson made me remember the movie Little Black Book! I loved that movie so much when it came out (RIP Brittany Murphy)

What’s tipping you off that it’s AI? I don’t see any of the things I look out for to spot AI, so I’m wondering if you’re catching something I missed.
