The Well-Tutored Lover, by Alice Gaines - One...
Arthur approaches the Duchess of Millford, asking her to tutor him in the ways of making love—even though he’s already dipped his wick several times and apparently knows where his nibbly bits go.  His main concern is that —GAWSP!!—he has a huuuuuuge Penis (yes, it has its own capital P), and he doesn’t want to hurt his future virginal wife who he hasn’t even...

New Books!
A week or so ago, I got a book that I had forgotten I’d preordered, Sins of the House of Borgia, which was a recommendation from Ali. It’s one of the books she’s repping in her glamorous publishing career, and apparently she used the words “dirty pope sex” to describe it to a group of about 80 librarians and bookstore owners. Is it any wonder she’s a fabulous...

books i have given up on
mfred: I’ve been stumbling back into reading and I think I forgot something really important. A lot of books suck. A lot of books are bad. And that is ok.  Somewhere in the millions of books published in the world, I will find a good one. In the meantime, and in no particular order, here is a list of the books I DNF’d: Shades of Milk and Honey by Mary Robinette Kowal — who is no Jane...

cornflakegrrl93 asked: I love paranormal romance, but it's a white, white genre. I'd like to get a little more multicultural, but I find I never pick up Kimani HQ, for example, because it's all contemporary romance, and I NEVER read contempo. Seriously. No Jennie Cruisie, no Nora Roberts (and NR's paranormal...isn't paranormal enough for me, LOL), nothing of the like. Can I get some rec's...

Paradise Rules, by Beth Kery - One Minute Review
  I’m a simple woman with simple tastes in reading. Gimme a little P-in-V action, and my va-china runneth over. Bring your hot Navy SEAL friend in for a threesome throwdown, and I will think that I have died and gone to Do Me Up the No-No Hole Heaven. Give said Navy SEAL a Lucha Libre mask to wear, and I will TOTALLY swallow. Most authors are like my friendly neighborhood Harmon’s grocery store,...

glossylalia asked: You know what really does bum me out about contempo romance though? The fact that Jennifer Crusie is pretty much the pinnacle. I mean like you said about mashed potatoes, who doesn't love them, and when they're great, Lord are they great...but if only there were a whole aisle of potatoes, sweet potatoes, purple potatoes, taro, mashed yucca, if only there were more authors doing what she...

Romance Authors as Food Items
For no reason at all, several reviewers and I have decided to make a list of what foods romance authors would be if they were foods. Feel free to disagree or add your own in the comments/reblogs! Jeaniene Frost - Domino’s Pizza. Say what you will, but I’ve never seen anybody turn down a slice. I could even go for some right now, actually. Eloisa James - Berry pie. It’s deceptively...

He's the One, by Jane Beckenham
Ummm…this is my first tumblr post EVAH, and I don’t even know if I’m doing this right, so I feel like I’m either going to vomit or pee my pants. Good times. I like to recommend (or not) books to my friends, so I’ve done a few “one minute” reviews and hope you don’t mind me submitting one. So Taylor is a wedding planner who also happens to be a...
