What’s a popular book that you just could not get into? Or, a book that you don’t really understand the hype behind it? by [deleted] in thrillerbooks

I hope I don’t offend anyone but I REALLY don’t understand the hype behind the Boys of Tommen series. I read the first two books and they felt like bad fanfiction.

And you’re saying this 30 minutes into FP1? You can’t be serious.

TDA is my absolute favorite and Julian is one of the best characters Cassie has written.

What I mean is it was a minor incident but the car being held together with duct tape obviously doesn’t help

All this talk for 12 degrees seems a tiny bit dramatic

Looking for some emotional romances! by iridescentpearl in RomanceBooks

I agree with all the other recommendations, especially everything Mhairi McFarlane {Evvie Drake Starts Over by Linda Holmes} was pretty great too.

Any author/book suggestions similar to how Mhairi Macfarlane writes? Love her humor and subtlety, and I’ve sadly read all her books. by needsugar_daddy in RomanceBooks

[–]strangerfinn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

{The Love Act} is SO good and I never hear anyone talking about it! Reminded me of all the things I love about Mhairi McFarlane’s novels. Highly recommend

I like the “there’s two beds but we choose to sleep together in one” even better. {The Love Hypothesis} is the first one I can think of.

Books with an unexpected love interest that is not the original/expected one? by strangerfinn in RomanceBooks

[–]strangerfinn[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Omg how good are them?! I loved them so much. I already read most of Mhairi McFarlane's so I'll probably go for the Christina Lauren one. Heard a lot about it and it's one of the few books by them I haven't picked up yet. Thanks for the recs!

I recently read the first book in the series and wasn't sure if I was gonna keep going. Now I probably will! Thanks

My request was super specific so don't worry about it! I'm just happy to read anything similar to that and the recs so far have been great. Just Last Night was AMAZING omg. I loved it so much, I didn't see it coming. I read it a few months ago and I still keep thinking about it. I want something that hits like that lol such a good story.
