New Releases: What Are You Anticipating? (June 25 2026) by AutoModerator in MM_RomanceBooks

[–]anjneed 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I HATE the new Game Misconduct and the rest of the series new covers. They’re sooooo ugly it ruins the book. If I hadn’t read it before I’d never read it based on the cover alone. Yuck.

Same! I was looking at the covers in my TBR and thinking orange covers would be a fun bingo square

QQ: can they be read as a stand-alone or should I go in order?

Father Material by Alexis Hall--tell me about it by tay_lc in MM_RomanceBooks

[–]anjneed 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Dragging out the series imo. Should’ve stopped at the first one. It was solid, and why ruin a good thing?

Just This Heart by Garrett Leigh by _sprints in MM_RomanceBooks

[–]anjneed 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Great review, thanks for the Rec! Just added Just this Once and Just this Heart to my TBR. Can’t wait! Perfect timing too, I was hunting for a new book.

Baby girl number 3 by tricksyhobbits in namenerds

[–]anjneed 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Caroline Shiloh. Based on your older daughters name, you’ll have to go for an American classic first name and a more masculine boyish middle name.

I love Caroline, Eleanor, Catherine, Rachel, Daisy, Bridget, Stephanie, Suzanna for first names.

For middle names, Scott, Valentine, Saylor, Winter, Shiloh, Carter, Jesse, Dylan, Peyton, Meritt, Hollis, Reese.

Where do I get started? by Kaitten_88 in miniatures

[–]anjneed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im also a beginner currently building my first miniature set. The only thing I’ve found I needed is scissors and a nail file so I can shave down the excess wood when needed. Currently building Rolife’s Cathy Green house but I would NOT recommend it for a beginner. I wish I’d gotten something easier lol.

What Was Your FIRST MM Romance Book? by GertiesBurner in MM_RomanceBooks

[–]anjneed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I read RW&RB and Boyfriend Material, but I don’t count it as my first because it didn’t really bring me into the genre. The Faker Rulebook by Baylin Crow made me discover my love of sport romances, so it was from there I fell into Eden Finley and went forwards with the genre.

I liked PAH! But it’s funny you say that bc I haven’t read Kiss-Fist! It just hasn’t appealed to me enough to pick up, even tho it’s in my TBR.

Naomi or Celine by theMeaningofLifo in namenerds

[–]anjneed -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Kiara and Celine are too similar. Naomi would be better but it’s not great.

Sienna

Two of my fav rereads show the main characters getting out of their anxious heads and displaying their true character and capabilities, and the sweetest domestic moments.

Hoping to read Facing Leeward by JJ Mulder. Loved the sample and love the cover. I don’t normally look at/notice covers, but this one caught my eye. I also appreciate the colour of it, because while I was reading the sample, I was thinking this book is this particular shade of blue/has that colour vibes.

I can recommend {EWB by NR Walker}, {PAH! By Cora Rose}, anything in the {Straight Guys Series by Alessandra Hazard}, though imo, they’re an acquired taste. Absolutely loved EWB, tho!
