What to read after Gone With the Wind

What to read after Gone With the Wind - My challenge to myself right now is to take my own advice, read the five recommendations in this post, and to take it seriously when authors of color point speak out about racism in Romancelandia.

As I discussed in my first post on Gone With the Wind, Mitchell’s epic is not aging well (though here’s an astute piece on the Washington Post on why it’s still valuable to read the book). The mythic antebellum South is much more obviously fictional these days and more of us white folks are remembering/realizing that the splendid plantation life of the O’Haras and their neighbors was built on the…

#LovetoReadFeb20 : Own Voices I'm feeling well enough to today to attempt a print book, and decided to read one that's been on my TBR for awhile. Get A Life, Chloe Brown by Talia Hibbert was my Nov 2019 BOTM pick. Everyone I know that's read this says it's amazing, so I'm looking forward to sitting down with this story for the rest of the day. I've got my hot tea & my book darts, so I'm ready to start! I'll include the blurb in the comments. romancestagram #booksofig #books #currentlyreading #romancereader #romancebooks #booklife #bookdragon #mimireadsromance #mimireads2020 #mimiskeepercollection #tbrlist #contemporaryromance #ownvoices #weneeddiverseromance #taliahibbert #avonbooks #botmclub https://www.instagram.com/p/B8eX6zlAsQN/?igshid=m91z7iqmtkxs

Everything old is new again: An Open Letter to White, Straight, Able-bodied Romance Authors

Guest Post: An Open Letter on #diversity in #romance by guest Mari Anne Christie #WeNeedDiverseRomance #ownvoices #AuthorsofColor @mchristieauthor

On June 9, 2015, a fellow author asked if I would let her guest post one week. It’s a hot button topic, she said, but one that’s important, and needs to be brought out from behind the curtain and into the light.

I agreed. Wholeheartedly.

Now, approaching FOUR YEARS LATER, we’re no further along and, perhaps, at least in terms of the Romance Writers of America (RWA), we can see just how…

WHERE I COME FROM, COPS AREN’T SUPERHEROES.“

Photojournalist and wedding photographer Ava Greene has been unlucky in love, and even though she calls herself a hopeless romantic, she is more than a little bitter about it. The only attention she seems to get is from the men she has absolutely no interest in and has become unintentionally celibate in her effort to avoid “trash ass dudes” and has officially given up on the idea “the one” when Officer Friendly rolls up on her block.

“NOT ALL COPS…”

Arrogant and just shy of being a cornball with his bad-dad jokes, she knows that this stocky cop might just be the one to make her second-guess every thought she ever had about cops.

Ava tries to make it clear to Levi that she doesn’t need saving, that she doesn’t need to be worshiped, but he is convinced that is exactly she needs it. But when Ava finds herself on the wrong side of the law, will he be the hero she needs or toe the “thin blue line?”

Cover Reveal: The Truth of Things by @tashalharrison

So excited to be doing my first cover reveal for Tasha L. Harrison! She’s been writing the kind of smut I’ve been missing in my life XD So I answered the call when she needed folks to spread her new cover to the world!

Without a moment’s hesitation….

“Where I come from, cops aren’t super heroes.”

Photojournalist and wedding photographer, Ava Marie Greene, doesn’t ever want to fall in love and…

This is Not Why We Need Diverse Romance--but it Sure Helps

This is Not Why We Need Diverse Romance–but it Sure Helps

by Kiersten Hallie Krum

There are a lot of reasons why #WeNeedDiverseRomance. We here at Lady Smut have discussed aspects of diverse romance regularly, whether it’s Alexa Day discussing the racial- and feminist-line blurring TV show Pitch or her examination of interracial romance through history or Thien-Kim Lam’s talking about #OwnVoices during #ReadHotter month, or my own look at the women who…

#LovetoReadFeb20 :Couple on the Cover Some of my favorite covers in the last two years have been the ones for the Reluctant Royals series by Alyssa Cole. The vibrant colors are beyond gorgeous & the covers are the perfect representation of her bold, beautiful storytelling style. If you're not familiar with the series, add them to your TBR now. You won't be sorry! Also, check out Alyssa's IG page to see the other covers in this series...and the cover for the next release (it's 😍Ah-Mazing😍!) I'll put the blurb for this stellar novella in the comments. #romancestagram #booksofig #books #romancereader #romancebooks #booklife #bookdragon #mimireadsromance #mimireads2020 #mimiskeepercollection #autobuyauthorlist #faveseries #contemporaryromance #booksbooksbooks #weneeddiverseromance #bookstagram #supportdiverseromance #reluctantroyalsseries #alyssacole #secondchanceromance https://www.instagram.com/p/B8P55f_gT-x/?igshid=3b9d8it1304g
