Recs if you like Ready or Not...
no third act breakup!
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!
greatly inspired by @beanchambers on tiktok

relative slowburns
kind of struggling with books where the MC's instantly get together or hook up, so here are some book recs where the couple waits until at least 50% of the book to get together

Soft Male Leads
Some people like their male leads to be alpha chads. I'm not one of them. I like them soft. I like them anxious. I like them doing traditionally female jobs and roles and hobbies.
Mostly romance because that's what I read but other genres present.
Usually just adding the first volume in the series unless they are stand-alones or have distinctly different focus/MCs (most romance series).

Books you NEED to listen to, they're that good!
Books that really should be read via audiobook instead of physical/digital copy. Production, narrator, experience all top tier. Memoirs narrated by the authors.

Friends-to-lovers starter pack <3
My absolute fav trope in the world!!! because nothing hits harder than the slow burn, the pining, the โweโve always been just friendsโ until suddenly one touch changes everything ๐ญ๐ Likeโฆ the history, the comfort, the way they already know each otherโs hearts, it just makes the romance 10x more swoony.
