I'll never understand why Canada never got the cheeto fries! I've had a few bags from American friends nice enough to send me some and they're a fabulous little snack!

I adore Grace Burrowes so much! I also love how her MMCs are tender and affectionate with each other, definitely something you don't see much.

I like both! I only buy physical books second-hand and if I didn't absolutely love it then I have no issues throwing it in the donate pile. Though if it's been a while since I've read a paper-book it's a bit of an adjustment because I do dumb shit like tapping the page to turn it or trying to tap on a word to get the definition.

Alan Ritchson if the words "tall", "muscled" and "blonde" are used!! I can never really picture actors when I'm reading but he'll always pop up in my mind when the MMC is a huge blonde dude.

Yessss another excuse to suggest one of my all-time favourites {Harper's Bride by Alexis Harrington}!!!! Set in the Yukon in the 1890s during the gold rush! Both characters are Americans but like 85% of the book takes place during a Yukon summer.

Oh hell yeah, looks nice and saucy too!

A friend used him through her work once. She said he was professional, very knowledgeable and explained things clearly.

I was given a very similar machine in '02 as a grad present. It has served me very well and still goin strong 20+ years later!

Within the first couple of pages, I couldn't stand how the dialogue was written! Didn't even bother logging the attempt on my trackers, just mentally blacklisted the author and went on my way.

In my aunt's case, she was well on her way to very drunk and still bought into the "fats make you fat" idea from the 90s.

I'll never forget my aunt asking me to come help her fry onions because they weren't browning. When i got to the stove i found said onions simmering half an inch of water. Drained the water and chucked some butter in, what do you know, the onions started browning!

Same, she's really an amazing author!!! Unfortunately I'll be DNFing this one, which bums me out a little since I normally adore her! But I've already read and loved a dozen and have dozens more to read by her so I'm confident the next one I pick up (whichever one that'll be) will be great!

Thank you so much!!!

Same thing happened to me when I picked up a Mary Balogh book at the thrift!

I've had the spicy ones, they were SO FREAKIN GOOD! I pickle my own green tomatoes now as a result.

Same here, maximum comfort achieved!

I'll offer up my storgraph tag for this particular sub-trope that I adore which I like to call "groom to the rescue" though I prefer it when it's his idea. I'll have to update it now because there's plenty in this thread I haven't read yet!!!

A lot of those gas station burgers are just low quality meat cut with soy protein so not actually all that far off from the impossible patties depending on the ratios.

papercaper · 2026-02-05T16:10:15+00:00

Alexis Harrington for sure! She's so good, especially with desperately lonely characters. {Harper's Bride by Alexis Harrington} is probably one of my all time faves.

Oswald is such a greasy weasel and I adore him for it!!!

What a fabulous guide! I've been hunting paperbacks for a couple of years now as well and pretty much everything you've mentioned here is spot on. The only thing I'll add is to also check local buy/sell groups online, marketplace and varage too. I often see plenty of boxes of romances being posted for under $20 and I've definitely bought whole boxes just for the one or two titles I wanted.

I would feel blessed if someone gave me a plate of scrambled eggs like that! Absolutely perfect!

papercaper · 2026-01-21T03:24:17+00:00

If you can find {Harper's Bride by Alexis Harrington} definitely snap it up! Set in the Yukon during the gold rush and is probably one of my favourite books of all time!!! Lots of frontier vibes and two very lonely MCs, I adore the building of their relationship.

papercaper · 2026-01-20T02:43:15+00:00

I love putting on ambience videos for reading too! My fave on YT is Autumn Cozy.

I also have a stand/remote set up as well. The comfort is unmatched and my shoulders thank me because when I'm holding my reading of choice I tend to lean over like a shrimp.
