Lighthearted YA Romance
light & happy young adult romances with little to no spice (but lots of food!) while these books address family & cultural challenges, everything works out perfectly happily in the end :)

Hi everyone! This is a bit hard to put out there, but I'm in a bit of a depression slump right now, and I have no push to read anything but I am determined to read. I need some book recs that will grab me and make me want to continue until the end, nothing psychological or thriller right now, maybe some cozy fantasy or even contemporary romance. My favorites in both genres are The Cruel Prince by Holly Black and The Enemy's Daughter by Melissa Poett, and anything by Ashley Poston, but the ones I've read and loved are The Seven Year Slip and The Dead Romantics. I'm currently behind on my reading goal as well, I need to read 4 books to catch up. Thanks!

Has anyone ever been to the LA Times Festival of Books? I know it's coming up, but I have no idea what to expect. Do you meet authors?? Listen to authors speak?? Buy books?? I really have no clue and would like some thoughts on what to expect 🫣
Even if you haven't been to this specific book festival, I'd be interested to hear your experiences on book festivals in general!

An introduction to Literary Fiction, these books are part of the cultural zeitgeist or the 'canon' that many would recognize. Look for more niche titles in later Starter Pack volumes.
