Maybe this is silly, but I enjoy a bit of heat in the books I read, and I'm a genre hopper. Is it always necessary? No, of course not. But some subtle romance when done well can add a nice backdrop to whatever the characters are working through. Agree or disagree?

This book sucked me in so fast! Thanks for the recommendation @melenebraxton . I can't put it down. Last book read was a romance. Currently reading a fantasy. I think I'll have to try a thriller or horror next. Genre flipper, at your service 🤣😉
Chincoteague Island, VA steals my heart another year. I did zero writing, but managed to read my friend @amberperezwriter book, Shay's Gamble. I'm not a lesbian or romance genre reader, but when my friend writes a sweet, lusty book, I go outside of my regular reading zone. Really enjoyed this easy beachy read full of hope, steam, and even a few tears. Plus some wild Vegas fun!
My daughter took this picture of me. I love finding unexpected things like this. I'm watching the world burn behind these glasses, or i see my son acting like a goof. Or maybe all of these things are happening at once.
