I’m serious about my wishlist. Even in non-romance genres, regardless of context, the lying and pretending stress me out. I may be learning more about what I do like, but I already know what I don’t like.
Maybe this type of romance novel doesn’t exist. What do I know?
-
*Audiobooks only (no AI narration)
*No straights (queer love only)
*No insta-love (insta-lust maybe)
*No miscommunication trope (fine if they need to work through their own issues, but they need to be honest with one another)
*Minimal will-they/won’t-they
*No possessive alpha types (of any gender)
*No YA
*No dubcon (seriously, just no) -
I’ve always said I don’t read romance. But the Skip storyline in Heated Rivalry has me curious. I’m looking for recommendations. But I’m going to be VERY specific about what I do/don’t want.
Please don’t recommend anything without reading below. Self-recs are fine if they meet all the below.

Book 27 was Surviving Sentience 2040 by Sharon A. McDonell.

Book 15 was Patient Zero and the Making of the AIDS Epidemic by Richard A. McKay (narrated by Paul Woodson).

Book 8 was Ethan of Athos by Lois McMaster Bujold (narrated by Grover Gardner).
Classic sci-fi often forgets that women exists; this takes that trope and cranks the dial to 11.
As well as being a fascinating look at gender constructs, this is just a really a fun story with fantastic characters.

New month, new book thread! First up, The Intermediaries: A Weimar Story by Brandy Schillace (narrated Daniela Acitelli).
I knew about the Institut für Sexualwissenschaft. Or rather I was aware that it existed. And I knew the Nazis destroyed huge amounts of data and information. But this book provides so much more detail. I especially appreciated the intimate portrayal of Dora Richter.

Book 29 was A Bitter Remedy by Alis Hawkins (narrated by Ffion Aynsley & Iestyn Arwel).
It’s 1881 and Non is one of the first women allowed to study at Oxford, which really pisses some people off. And that’s before she sticks her nose into the unexplained death of a student.

Book 26 was Direct Descendant by Tanya Huff (narrated by Bridget Lappin & Kiana Wu).
Do you want to read a queer cosy eldritch horror? Set in northern Ontario? With positive fat rep? Yeah, you do.
And a huge ‘thank you’ to the publisher for hiring Canadian narrators to voice a Canadian story.

Book 16 was The Last Bookstore On Earth by Lily Braun-Arnold (narrated by Bailey Carr).
After the world ends, Liz carries on at a bookshop. The odd person comes in for new books, trading goods or news, occasionally sharing their own stories.

Book 7 was Jingled by Evan J. Corbin.
I kind of expected a cosy bit of fluff. And yet the reality was darker and more nuanced than I expected. Highly recommended.

I did not enjoy this. I found the stream of consciousness repetitive and a bit boring, and the characters and their stories uninteresting and trite.
Maybe I should have read it 10 years ago?Last Night in Nuuk, Niviaq Korneliussen

Hello, hello.
It's been very difficult reading and writing since the accident, but today I want to tell you about a novella I recently finished, part of a series I'm in love with.
It's a story about magic, witchcraft, haunted houses, LGBTQ+ relationships, and a struggling marriage: Odd Spirits, by S. T. Gibson
