I love a book with a well named cat. Purrcaso is one of the best names I’ve seen.

What do you think is one of red flags in a reader?

I personally don't like readers who judge others on what they read? Like what do others reading has with you, once i saw guy who reads non fiction saying how romance books don't count as reading and how you aint reader, like buddy, if you read you are reader, or a person who judges how much person read in a month or a year, i recently started counting books i read last year i didn't, i don't even know how much i read until i realized people actually count and make goals how much they wanna read, i never understand those readers, so share what you think :)

Tough Guy (Game Changers, #3)

Rachel Reid

They have nothing in common—so why does Ryan feel most like himself whenever he’s with Fabian?Pro hockey star Ryan Price may be an enforcer, but off the ice he struggles with anxiety. Recently traded to the Toronto Guardians, he’s determined to make a fresh start in the city’s dynamic LGBTQ Village. The last thing he expects to stumble upon in his new neighborhood is a blast from his past in the fabulous form of Fabian Salah.Aspiring musician Fabian loathes hockey. But that doesn’t stop him from being attracted to a certain burly, ginger-bearded defenseman. He hasn’t forgotten the kiss they almost shared back in high school, and it’s clear the chemistry between them has only intensified.Fabian is more than happy to be Ryan’s guide to the gay scene in Toronto. Between dance clubs and art exhibits—and the most amazing sex—Ryan’s starting to feel something he hasn’t experienced in a long time: joy. But playing the role of the heavy on the ice has taken its toll on his body and mind, and a future with Fabian may mean hanging up his skates for good.

Role Model (Game Changers, #5)

Troy Barrett has been freshly traded to Ottawa after calling out Dallas Kent during a team practice. He wants to be a better person, and the weird, scrappy energy of the struggling Ottawa team seems like the place to...well. It seems like the only place that will have Troy right now. Fortunately the Ottawa team includes Ilya Rozanov and Wyatt Hayes, and also includes an adorable social media manager, Harris Drover. Harris is the opposite of Troy in every way: friendly, cheerful, chatty, and goofy with a booming voice, a startlingly loud laugh, and Pride pins all over his denim jacket. Definitely not the sort of person Troy would normally associate with, and yet…

Sentient Architecture

by acloudofbats

33 books

"Place as character" is usually reserved for lush descriptions that bring environments to life, and less often used for environments that have a life of their own. This list includes houses, homes, castles, spaceships, anywhere people will spend time and call home. Not meant to include haunted houses, but a case could be argued for specific ones. c:

Only including the first in a series unless books feature different sentient places.

Static (Mayhem Motel)

Marie Ann

The first time I laid eyes on Madison Payne, I knew he was mine. He was such a surprising little treat to find within the walls of Mayhem Motel. Devoured by his fear, he became so malleable and submissive… for me. I couldn’t possibly let him go. But then he left, and I had no other choice but to find him again—by any means necessary. And I did. His fear consumed him once more, but he fell into me with a beauty and grace I could’ve only dreamed of. I finally found the parallel to my shadow. And now, we return to Mayhem. Back to where we began.
