So books from almost all Romance genres can be added except those I have mentioned… So anything from Romantic Suspense to military romance to Rom-Com.👍👍

𝙊𝙣𝙡𝙮 M+F couples. Main characters that are at least 25, but preferably main characters that are at least 30 or older. Romance/love that is romance/love and Not just lust. Good world-building.

Diversity and inclusion is something that is important to me on all levels…. Including in romance books and the romance genre… but also other fiction books/genres.
All different kinds of representation are really important and matter. (Size, age, abilities, ethnicity, race, sexuality etc. etc.)
So much more representation is needed in the romance genre but also better and positive representation... and sincere/genuine representation of diversity/inclusion.
Research is always a author's best friend! It makes for a better and more believable book/plot but also better and more believable characters.
If these things above ⬆️ are important to you or at least on your radar that is great… If not consider just following my reviews.
I have created 46 different lists on Goodreads Listopia.... Maybe take a look.🙂
