Reader Recommendations – Books and series that have a similar feel to “This Is Us”

By Leave a Comment

Sonia is looking for more like “This Is Us” (the TV series). She gives a couple of examples of books that have a similar feel, to her. Have any suggestions?

She asks:

RE: “This is us-like” books

When you watch This is us. Yes Jack Pearson the glue of the family. But I like the more family/cozy vibe of the book.

I want to read a book like the show. In my personal opinion I think Sweet Gum tree by Katherine Allred is a close touch.

The main character doesn’t need to die. But there needs to be other stories. read more

HAPPY SUNDAY!!! 😊 WHAT ARE YOU IN THE MOOD TO READ? It’s been awhile since I asked what everyone’s reading and sitting and catching up with our book crew after the hurricane, I have a book roll call for us. So if you’re looking for something to read, I bet you I (we) have just what you’re looking for in this list. Fantasy Romance (or “Romantasy”) dominates these days (and on this list, as well) but we have a ton of other tried-and-true must reads from other genres too. read more

Reader Favorites – Our favorite true gentleman, protective, good boy, no game-playing Heroes…

By Leave a Comment

Hortensia wants some good boys! There is nothing better than a true gentleman, a respecter of women, and of people as a whole, with a heart of gold. Oh surrrrre…. I’ve had my HUGE love of bad boy alpha males and all of the angsty game playing (my blog was practically built off the backs of these kinds of heroes), but as I’ve matured, I’ve developed a preference for a good, openly loving, secure man (and YAY ME!! I have one). So I can understand the need to read them, too.

And while I have my own list of these book boyfriend sweethearts, I’d love to add to it right here. read more
