    Oh wow! Such a good recommendations! I read a looot of MM books. I started a year ago and I just cannot stop. So what I loved about you review is that I only read one book from your least (which is Him) and all others are new for me. And you talk so passionately about them that I want to read almost all of them now and already download some)) Thank you very much! I just finished Monstrous Serious by Lily Mayne and it was more than good and couldn't decide what to read next after such a great stories, now I know ;)

    • @gianadarlingauthor

    I’m currently reading the Westbrook Elite series by Cambria Hebert and it’s so good! It’s about these boys in a swim team and the found family is just perfection. The books are on the longer side as well so you get time to really sit with them.

    • @gianadarlingauthor
      @gianadarlingauthor  4 месяца назад

    @lineh.4116 4 месяца назад +2

    Amazing video and definitely more reads to my own TBR!
    And I have some recs as well.
    My all time favourite MM will always be Grandmaster of Demonic Cultivation by Mo Xiang Tong Xiu.
    And also just anything Eden Finley and Saxon James. If you want to start the CU Hockey series I recommend maybe going into the Fake Boyfriends series by Eden Finley before.
    And obviously anything by Avril Ashton. She does crime incredibly well in my opinion. With her I recommend starting with the Brooklyn sinners series❤❤

    omgosh so I have to recommend two of my favorite MM romances! The first is "A Strange and Stubborn Endurance" by Foz Meadows, it's a fantasy book and this book is over 500 pages, when I tell you I read it in a DAY I could NOT put it down. You've got a mystery plot set with an arranged marriage like...so good

      @gianadarlingauthor  4 месяца назад +1

      I've had this one downloaded for AGES and I've heard such good things but I'll definitely bump it up my TBR now! The Freya one I'll give a shot too, I don't usually adore HR but this sounds so interesting!

    Thank you for these recommendations!! I love MM romance and always looking to discover more. I added so many. Thank you for sharing ones that aren’t talked about. MM romance is my to go romances. If it’s not mm romance it’s mm fanfiction romance 🤣My current favors MM author is Tal Bauer. I love everything they write and currently making my way through Cole McCades Criminal Intentions series. I loving that episodic format Cole McCade series is and trying to look for something similar in that format.

    Giana… I agree that Damon Suedes books are kind of all over the place. It’s like no two of his books are similar, but I too loved Hotheads….But I also really liked lickety-split so I recommend that one too!

    *adds everything to TBR* One of my fave mm romances is Gravity by Tal Bauer, it’s a soft yet angsty hockey romance. Most of my other favorite mm romances are Harry/Draco fan fiction lol. I can highly recommend The Man Who Lived for a long and angsty fic with lots of original material added.
