    A beautiful book that fires on all cylinders. You won't get a better Bridgerton read-alike than this one.

  • Is One Book Missing?

    What was the name of the book (deep dive) with the kidnapping? And they get snowed in? It was from the 80s and Robert Redford was at the wedding at the end. I know I read it and now I can't remember the name, but I don't see it in the quest.

    Ravished, originally published in 1992, absolutely holds up. Amanda Quick (AKA Jayne Ann Krentz) is a legend.

  • Audiobook tips

    I've been meaning to try listening to audiobooks for a while and I'd love to know your best tips! Where do you listen to audiobooks? The only platforms I know that have the most range, at least according to what I usually read, are audible and audiobooks but I also don't love the fact that I'd be paying a membership plus paying for each individual book. How do you listen to audiobooks? Do you listen to them while doing other stuff or while reading the book you're listening to? A big reason why I want to try audiobooks is to do what I've seen people call "immersive reading" aka listening and reading the book at the same time cause it honestly sounds kinda fun! Thank you in advance <3

    This is the full banana and it's completely out of print. Track down a used copy. It's worth the trouble!
