I completely forgot about The Naturals series and you brought me BACK to that time. Wild! Also wanted to say that Legendborn was one of my favorite reads of last year. So so so good! I have the sequel on my shelves, but I haven't read it yet. I wanted to read it in the month of February, but got really busy so I didn't get to it. :(
I preferred The second book in the when in rome series Practice makes perfect. I think you would like that book better. Also The Cheat Sheet by Sarah Adams is super cute 💕
Ya basically all of them i haven’t read. All of my read books are on a different shelf! The prompts i got off Pinterest and some of them i made up myself

hahah your initial reaction to having to read a nonfiction book was very relatable. i'm very much in my fiction era right now and i don't want to change that ✨but also excited to hear your thoughts on the viola davis book!
I LOVED Alone With You in the Ether! It exceeded my expectations. It was thought provoking and just a unique love story. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did. ❤ I’m going to read Dune this month before I watch the second movie and after that, I’m going to start the Throne of Glass series!
Viola Davis memoir is just brilliant I hope you will enjoy it Here's my tbr for march Howling dark by Christopher ruoccichio The sporty one by melanie c memoir The glass castle by Jeannette walls memoir Elektra by Jennifer saint Check and mate by ali hazlewood You again by kate goldbeck
It's not tricking the reader....its very common in romances that even though the readers obviously know the characters will end up together, the characters don't and they usually have individual issues or trauma that they are dealing with or even outside forces that prevents the couple from immediately getting together. The fun of it is the journey to them getting together it'd be boring and no story if they immediately get together and there is no angst or drama. Not saying When in Rome is the best example of this but I did thoroughly enjoy that book a lot more than I thought I would because I don't normally like super star/average person romances but I personally thought this one was done well. I felt like her issues were less about "oh woah is me I'm a superstar and nobody understands me" and more that she wasn't creatively doing what she truly wanted and she needed to change things.
Trying to trick the readers is only annoying when not done successfully. It kind of feels like an insult when done terribly. 😂 Who are you trying to trick?
I just finished The Flatshare today. Literally loved it!!!! Thank you for the recommendation 🩷
Omg yay i love that you loved it!!
Viola Davis’ book was so good. I listened to it on audio. Then got gifted the physical copy.
