I laughed so hard at this.

Haven’t done this in a while.
Currently reading with my ears//reading with my eyes
*yes, I’m still on my Toni Anderson romantic suspense binge, lucky for me, she’s got a massive backlist, all on hoopla or Libby.
**thanks to Chalamet for reminding me Chloe Angyal wrote a 3rd ballet book.
Look at me reading with my eyes again!
Screenshot of The Love Feud by Janine Amesta with a cartoon illustration of a man in a white tshirt and dark pants standing on the ground, reaching his arm up to a woman in a hot air balloon. She’s in a white dress and reaching an arm down towards the man. They both have dark hair.

The illustrated cover of DESIRE AND THE DEEP BLUE SEA by Olivia Dade, featuring a sunset and rocky cliffs in the background near a sandy shoreline, with an embracing couple in the foreground. The woman is brunette and fat and pretty, with her hair swept back. She's wearing a Grecian-style dress and has her arms around the neck of a dark-haired, lean man with glasses in a dark gray suit.
One of my self-published novellas, DESIRE AND THE DEEP BLUE SEA, has a gorgeous new cover from @lenikauffman.bsky.social and a new audiobook narrated by the incomparable Joy Nash--and that audiobook is out today!

I hope you love the cover and the story! ♥
Just in case you haven't heard about it yet: I loved the Oscar-nominated short film "Jane Austen's Period Drama," which literally made me LOL several times and brought me a great deal of joy!
Romancelandia, this is very much Our Shit™.

This is a far more poetic takedown than these two absolute clown grifters deserve. I hope they both end up living the life they deserve, one that involves a maximum security prison.

Welp. I am running out of places to talk about books with a community of people who also enjoy talking about books. (Don’t come at me with 🧵 I am not joining that hellscape).

Idk who is rehashing these tired old arguments for the millionth time but not only are they ridiculous and idiotic, they’re also painfully unoriginal.
teewatterss on Threads: “losing an hour on international women's day feeling very 75 cents on the dollar”
10/10 take. no notes
I am passively curious. Mildly interested.
Today I learned Chalamet hates ballet and opera (???) and Jessie Buckley hates…cats?? Does she *hate* them or is she severely allergic to them? I have questions though none that are so pressing as to force me to google any of this.
lol I coped with Kit Rocha’s Beyond series in 2020 when everything was terrible.
I literally can't stop reading them.
to them and perhaps that's why these books are helping me cope in this current timeline. If I can't have that in my real life, at least I can have it in my romantic fiction.
Yup, still on the danger banging train. This one was like a LOT of danger banging - they are kidnapped by a terrorist and then again, by a narcissistic billionaire who was very reminiscent of a certain real life billionaire who bought and ruined the bird app. But the evil baddies get what is coming

Churros
Another round of stress baking (although, technically, these weren’t baked).
Attempted homemade churros for the first time. My daughter loves churros and was really sad when Costco dropped it from their menu and replaced it with, in her words, really mid chocolate chip cookies.
I have been coping with *waves hands* everything by listening to a lot of romantic suspense with a lot of danger banging, which is a weird thing to be listening to under the current timeline, but here we are. Reading with my eyes is a real struggle right now.

People trying to end the world because the Bible says that Jesus will come when the world ends are going to be mightily surprised if they turn out, against all odds, to be right and Jesus returns and looks them in the eye and is like "yo, what is the ONE THING I asked of you?"
Good news!! I’m having a good hair day!!
Bad news - in an effort to achieve said good hair day, I twinged something in in my neck and shoulder.
You win some, you lose some.

Popped into bsky, saw a truly wild take regarding Bill and Hillary, and I’m just gonna pop back out. Some thoughts can just stay in people’s head though.
if I catch A SINGLE ONE OF YOU doing this to our trans friends in Kansas, I will fucking wreck you.
the politicians doing this to Kansas are evil. the people it is being done to deserve support and help and to not have to deal with your sadistic little jokes. grow a fucking soul.
Every single day, I think to myself, I don’t know if I have the capacity for any more rage and every single day, I learn that I do.
To the Ends of the Earth is my favorite Elizabeth Lowell, a real gut punch of a book.
