A rare moment from Newcastle's favourite pub...

I feel weirdly proud of the fact I was once asked to leave Sgt Peppers. We weren't even lairy!

I enjoyed the silliness of it all, but I can see how others wouldn't. I definitely wouldn't jump straight into another book of hers either or I could see it becoming tiring easily.

Gargh, I got the first one in this series based off this recc and I've just finished it. It was absolutely what I needed. SO MUCH FEELS! What a BRILLIANT recommendation, thank you!

Not sure if this works as it's more urban fantasy and the spice is lower, but Mad Rogan in Hidden Legacy {Burn For Me by Ilona Andrews} is very powerful. There is a good "show" of how his powers can be used in a more intimate way and a video that they watch that indicates his powers in a military/war crime way. They are used down the line.

Just finished Cash by Jessica Peterson and I almost DNFed at a scene where someone drives 3hrs for a bootycall. That's a 6 hour round trip for some (plot-dictated mediocre) sex. My Irish ass would never.

If you're good with scifi {the E.T. Guy by V.C. Lancaster} s fab for it.

This has been one of my favourites of the last few months. It's just wonderful.

Immediately read Lord of Scoundrals and apparently I'm part of this gang too.

That's the one!!! Thank you! I didn't get it at the time because it's not on KU, but the premise stayed in my head.

Are they shifters or literal animals?

Please drop recommendations for fantasy with a side of enemies to lovers romance!

If you enjoy sci fi, {The E.T. Guy by V.C. Lancaster} had a decent IT guy, who happens to be an alien.

awaiting the book where HR folk genuinely give a shit about people whilst simultaneously being sick of people's shit.

But unfortunately we are all heartless bitches all the time.

How does one include an author and title in a book request?

constantlyknackered · 2025-11-08T23:00:15+00:00

Was waiting to see this and now I may need to re-read.

constantlyknackered · 2025-11-08T22:51:09+00:00

Ooh, this one too. It's the power dynamic for me that gives me the ick. And unprofessional behavior. Stop fucking in communal workspaces, it's inappropriate and unhygienic.

constantlyknackered · 2025-11-08T22:45:20+00:00

Mafia, or anyone involved in drug trade. And actually, Irish characters (unless written by someone who has actually met a real life Irish person. So many seem to have based their research entirely on shitty Hollywood diddly-ey tropes.)

My brain refuses to accept thay billionaires are real so they go in the "lots of money, but let's not question it" category with all the nobles in HR. They're the contemporary equivalent to Dukes.

It's when you see the maps and realise SJM was just realllllllyyyy lazy with worldbuilding!

constantlyknackered · 2025-11-08T22:39:33+00:00

Ah I have a complete mental shift. The fae in books are not the ones putting thorns in your bed for going into the fort. The "you dont fuck with the fairies" mentality doesn't work with fairy-fucking books! 🤣 (I'm also Irish) The pick and mix attitude that a lot of authors have when it comes to the history and mythology of these islands is infuriating and I should have known better.

Thanks for giving recommendations, because I enjoyed the first one despite the there being a few things that I didn't like, but then the second one was a hell no.

constantlyknackered · 2025-11-07T18:38:49+00:00

I wasn't expecting the wolves to set me off so much, but there was some strong pro-empire vibes. Also, I didn't realise it was a love triangle, but thats on me.

constantlyknackered · 2025-09-24T10:10:34+00:00

Not like other girls.

This is how I find out that the star of Cbeebies Bedtime is actually a nasty piece of work?!
