    I don't read werewolf books either, didn't want to read Bride but did since it's Ali Hazelwood- and I cringed at certain parts but she's such a good storyteller that I'm glad I read it. That's my last werewolf book though. The audio of The Long Game was fun - great male narrator - so maybe that's why I enjoyed it.

    What's the age gap in All Grown up, please? I'm pretty sure I've read something earlier this year about a bartender helping out someone who is trying to meet someone on an app, but I can't remember the name of it. I need to get better about adding all the books I read on goodreads. I will post the title if I can remember it. The Neighbor Favor by Kristina Forest starts online. Also, To Sir, with Love by Lauren Layne has dual online/in-person dynamic. I've been feeling slumpy since I got back from vacation. I've been reading mostly old-school, before I was born, Archie comics. *lol* Also, I finally got around to reading Mindf*ck at the end of September and devoured it. Thanks for the recommendations. <3

      Thank you so much for watching! I'm so happy you loved the MindF series 🥰. Also, I completely forgot about the Neighbor Favor, I read that one and really liked it. The age gap in All grown up is between 12 and 15 years. I think he's in his mid twenties while she's in her late 30s 😉

    10:08 🤔 I don't understand why they empty-mindedly criticize what they don't like. I could justify them if they argued that they like counterculture, that they don't like popular, and that they want other types of stories that don't reflect the majority, but they don't look for them, they just stick with the same stories complaining that they don't give them what they want 😅... And on the other hand, negativity sells, if all they want is to sell, then the algorithm will reward them for being negative. And I agree, we have to protect the genre from all the people who only want to sell negativity. For decades, romance has been seen as something to be ashamed of, romance has sustained art for centuries, but in recent decades, it seems that the only "valuable" art are super serious movies or violent movies, when the golden age of cinema was full of romance. Romance is profitable and has nothing to be ashamed of 😊.

      @@wendyflores1092 That's spot on, really well put. I would love to see positivity persevere for once. I would also love for these people to just look for works they'll love, because that will probably lead to more books that are still undiscovered to get discovered.
