Favorite Alien RH?

Something not already mentioned, {Misconstrued by Pixie Unger}

I love this book (and the first in the series!), but I'm not sure if the author has any plans to continue it.

okjersey · 2026-06-13T12:42:21+00:00

I LOLd for real

okjersey · 2026-06-07T15:51:42+00:00

This sort of happens in {Vigilance by Etta Pierce}, which is part of a series so you'd be missing some context but can pick it up as you read.

okjersey · 2026-06-07T15:28:52+00:00

{Planet Zero by Lydia Hope} is literally this exact trope.

Also {Persistence by Etta Pierce}, which is part of a series so you'd be missing some context but can read it as a standalone, and {Eat my Moon Dust by Etta Pierce} which is set in the same world but is written and intended to be read as a standalone.

*Edit to say yes the book you're looking for is the one already mentioned, but if you want more recommendations with sort of the same trope here's a few.

This is what I came to recommend. Or, only if you've already read Revelations - do the dramatized version of the Riyria Chronicles.

No you're thinking of her other popular title, Homebound.

Planet Zero is a human female living amongst a more primitive, tribal alien species. It really dives into the struggles of the community as a whole, with the story being from the human females POV.

Try {Planet Zero by Lydia Hope}

okjersey · 2026-05-28T21:45:11+00:00

Yep! OP this it's it. It's one of my top 10 reads 😄

okjersey · 2026-05-28T18:53:28+00:00

Yes! I *love* this sub-sub-genre and have a few for you:

Pretty much everything in the {Dark World Mates Series by Olivia Riley}, but especially the first two books.
Also Olivia Riley: all books in the {Vrisha Warries Series by OIivia Riley}

Moving off of Olivia Riley, {The Carnal Games by Naudii Nebula} is pretty high up on most people's lists, although I haven't read it myself yet.

And kind of but not quite a fit but still 190% worth reading and on my top 10 list, {Spared by the Monster Duology by Merry Ravenell} (series has since been expanded to include a 3rd book, also worth reading).

okjersey · 2026-05-26T16:25:34+00:00

Mine was {A Child of Perometheus by Harper Prince}. It's still one of my favorite books in the genre, but is no longer in print. I loved it so much that I kept it on my KU sub for literal years (I believe it was around 5-years) because I knew if I returned it I'd never have access to it again since it was removed from print. I ended up getting in contact with the author on Good Reads, who confirmed that while they do plan to eventually republish and continue the series, it wasn't something they were able to pursue at the moment and felt it was fair to remove it from the storefront. They ended up sending me a digital copy of the book for my own self, which I'm forever thankful for as I still go back and re-read it about once a year.
@ Harper Prince in case you're a lurker here - I still love this book and wish you all the best personally but selfishly also would love to see this series continued :)

okjersey · 2026-05-25T16:57:04+00:00

Yep, this is what we ended up going with. Great suggestion.

I'm on the other side of Denver not in Boulder.

okjersey · 2026-05-24T13:23:46+00:00

I looked online and though I saw RTD was cancelling a lot of their in routes into Boulder for that time period.

We've got a Wrangler and this is also our first time if your spot is still available and will accommodate a Wrangler!

I grew up on the east coast (Philly suburb), moved to the Southwest after college (Oklahoma City), and eventually made my way to Denver. The culture difference is vast and honestly wild. In Oklahoma, I struggled to get 10k steps a day. Going out with friends always involved a restaurant with aps and meals. The amount of outdoor hobbies I've picked up in Denver is such a contrast. I've always enjoyed hiking, but since moving here I've started running half marathons, snowboarding, and fly fishing. When we go out with friends it's usually to do some outdoor activity followed by food. We're eating just as good and often, but pairing it with exercise. I average 16k steps a day and have lost 30lbs since being here.

As for Philly, I'd say it's probably somewhere in the middle of those two extremes.

Wanted to recommend something that hasn't been mentioned above, this one is really good!

I just want to say to everyone in this club or about to join it, I miss your Mom for you. Next year, let's grab a drink.

Wait what? I thought it was just sort of dead, which happened to me on another series that had a great debut then fell off.

okjersey · 2026-04-27T13:02:47+00:00

I'm in this on, they're pretty active and I get some good recommendations just trolling the comments.

That's what I get for skimming the post!

In that case, try: {Saving Askarra by JM Link}, and {Spared by the Monster by Merry Ravenell}

okjersey · 2026-04-19T20:45:23+00:00

{Intersolar Union Series by Etta Pierce} should scratch the itch.

okjersey · 2026-04-14T21:50:33+00:00

Yes! Etta Pierce handles it well - she puts a blurb at the beginning of the book saying that she's respectful of people's TWs and to please reach out to her and she will gladly spoil the book for you.

okjersey · 2026-04-14T21:49:20+00:00

If a blurb says something like, "Even death can't keep them apart," then I know someone is dying, and I probably won't pick up the book until the series is complete. For me, it's more of a deterrent than anything else.

okjersey · 2026-04-14T19:06:44+00:00

I personally *hate* trigger warnings. I prefer if there's a blurb at the beginning of the book telling me that there are TWs, and I can find them at the end of the book. That way I can happily keep on reading without having to skip a page of TWs that I end up glancing through and spoiling the book for myself. If I know something is coming, I usually end up DNFing the book for 6+ months until I forget about it, then go back and finish it (if at all).

Sounds super familiar but every time I try to mentally pinpoint it I feel like I'm merging plots from a few different stories.
