Following my heart, one book at a time...
Elke is looking for genre recommendations! I’ve read a few that I’ve loved, but let’s make a list!! 😀
She asks:
Hello, I reed a lot and lately am a little picky, trying to find a book about a certain subject and would like to know if you have any suggestions.
You see, I would love to read a book where the h goes on a weight loss journey in order to find a second start.
I know you will probably think that it shouldn’t have to matter whether big or small, but you see, I find them inspiring.
Unloved, a love story
<— When I think of this story, I think sweet and so incredibly cozy, despite a few of the incredibly disturbing scenes that lead into this heartwarming story. This author (and this story) is much loved and came highly recommended by quite a few of my fellow readers:
Nancy: Nancy: Finished an ARC of Unloved by Katy Regnery. Best book she has ever written & at the top of my list of Best Reads of 2017!! Just WOW!! Oh ! Maryse you are going to love it! Best book Katy Regnery has ever written and I have read many !
The Ghostwriter
One of my favorite authors in the world (I have read – and LOVED – almost EVERYTHING she’s written) and she’s hit this one out of the ballpark again. She sent me a review copy and warned me that it wasn’t a romance (instead, it was a psych-thriller) and I suppose she may not have realized that psych-thrillers are my catnip!
I WAS ECSTATIC. And while this may not be a “romance”, it definitely follows a love story, or two, that just may tear your heart out anyway. 😉 But more than anything, it was the journey getting there… getting to the “what the heck happened?!?!?!!!” that had its own life.

ROCK STAR ROMANCE ALERT!!! I was hearing awesome things about this one, and now there are 5 books in the series and I’m hearing “Cake” is UNPUTTDOWNABLE.
Melinda: I’ve just read the most amazing book, it’s been on my Tbr forever. Anyway it’s called Cake by J Bengtsson. I absolutely loved it. …finished 5 big stars. I would thoroughly recommend it.
Amy: That was one of those – why did I wait so long to read it books? I’m currently reading Fiercely Emma!
Reader confession time. Oh yes. This is a given for SO MANY of us. The majority of us, I think.
And it’s obvious that I can TOTALLY relate to this one. Travis and Christian, and well… Kellan, anyone? 😉 I, too, love my heroes bad-ass but broken. Gah. WHYYYYYYYY???!!!
Why do we want it so difficult? It’s hard. It’s tumultuous. It’s angsty. It’s addictive. AND. IT. HURTS!!!!!! But it’s fun and it’s real.
And therefore… it’s fulfilling, and titillates all of our book-romance needs.
