Recs if you like If It Makes You Happy...

I started keeping a list on my phone every time I caught a character drooling over the love interest's forearms and now I am sharing my findings with the world! I shall continue to conduct this important groundbreaking research for the sake of all mankind . Looking for collaborators! If you find any mentions of sexy forearms in your books, I would love to add it!

Note: Inclusion in this list doesn't mean I loved the book, strangely, some of these books are my lowest rated reads. 🤷🏻‍♀️

do you hate unnecessary heartache from couples deciding against all reason to breakup just to get back together two pages later? you're in the right place! all these books are safe from the third act breakup trope, but that doesn't mean they don't have angst and conflict!

Exactly what it says on the tin
