Since I have all of 2 entries at this point, I realized that if anyone happens to come across this lil ol blog o mine, you’ll want to know if we have the same tastes to bother keeping up with me. First and foremost I’m romance all the way. I love love. My most favorite part of a romance novel is the characters first declaration of love for each other. It’s such a sweet moment in a relationship. And armchair psychologist for a moment here, I think the reason I love that part so much is because I can’t actually remember the first time I told my husband that I loved him. I remember when he told me, and it was so dang sweet. And I’m sure it only took you a second to realize that that means when he first said it to me, I did not say it back!
Anyway, back to the whole point of this post, romance. I like pretty much all kinds. I don’t do anything science fiction, paranormal, shifter, any of that jazz. I’m not even sure how its all categorized. I really like small town, the realistic type stuff. I have read everything from clean to erotic, but my preference is somewhere in the middle. I like a variety of tropes too, second chance, friends to lovers, enemies to lovers (those can be hilarious!). I’m not overly excited about office romance, especially when it’s a boss/subordinate type. I dont care for things that are taboo. Like dad’s best friend, or step siblings. Too much ick factor for me. But I don’t rule them out. Just like siblings best friend isn’t always my favorite, but I’ve read some really good ones. I have read a few marriage of convenience lately that I’ve liked. I read one years ago that I just loved and of course I can’t remember the name of it. Hopefully it comes to me one of these days! I mix in some that have a suspense aspect to them to on occasion. I could never live on a farm or ranch, but I really like cowboy books for some reason. I feel like after having read so many, I could be a horse whisperer in like an I stayed at at Holiday Inn type situation. Oh, and military, there’s something about the romanticized version of a broken soldier. Like I said before, I read a LOT. Like I can put away a book a day sometimes. Most books don’t take me more than 2 days, so I can easily read between 15-20 books a month. Well I’ve clearly rambled, but you can see some of my preferences to see if you’re interested in my thoughts/reviews/recommendations. More to come!
