Science Fiction Romance

[close] Welcome to Chaotic Buddy Reads! We're an open and inclusive book club that thrives on chaos. Unlike your mom's book club, we have no (well, minimal) rules, no obligations, and no need to clean your house to participate! All books, genres, and interests welcome! Not interested in what we're reading currently? We pick a new book every other week (with chaotic books thrown in the middle).

[close] If you like space opera: an epic scale adventure through the galaxy with military battles, interplanetary politics, realistic interpersonal relationships and futuristic technology, then you've found the right place. Space Opera includes legacy sci-fi epics, tie-in universes (Star Wars, BSG, Firefly, etc.) & softer crossover epics aimed at enticing a new generation of young people, men and women into the genre. Legacy reader or brand new fan, welcome!!! Come join us for a frolicking good romp through the galaxy! We have space opera book discussions, TV and movie tie-ins, comic/anime/manga tie-ins, gaming tie-ins, and even discussions for upcoming Sci-Fi Conventions and LARPing. General science-fiction fans are welcome, but no arguing! We can discuss the different sci-fi sub-genres and various preferences. AUTHORS: The best way to get your books noticed by our community members is by being a participating member yourself. Spamming is prohibited! However, we do have certain, limited ways to put your book in front of readers.

[close] This group is for people to post and talk about Black women or African American women in romance books in any genre. I know that I love to read romance books but I tire of never seeing books with women who look like me. It doesn't matter what shade just as long as she is a black woman (or African American if you prefer.) It's very hard to know which books have these characters unless we spread the word, as we know that the publishing companies don't like to show black women on their book covers. In addition many book covers are misleading. As much as I would like, I can't read all the books in world, so your help is needed. Thank You!

[close] The RFM community is for the romance media men like to consume! With the majority of romance books and films being written for women, this group exists to discuss romance media for men. Whether it is purely romance or merely a large romance subplot aimed at men, this is where it belongs! Recommendations and discussion from all genres are welcome as long as they contain some form of romance plot that men will enjoy.
