Hello fantasy romance lovers! Welcome to this space where I go a little more in depth on some of my favorite books and my latest reads in this genre. This section of the Monsters & Mystics newsletter is devoted to great books I come across in the fantasy and paranormal romance genres that I feel like highlighting or making mention of. I read a lot of books, both indie and traditionally published and love bringing attention to those I enjoy. I'm not much for the whole review culture, which I've found over time to be an open door for a wide range of negativity, and a sort of stumbling block against the freely whimsical way we used to pick up great stories to let our minds and moods take a chance on. I’m all for the adventure of diving into a storyworld without a whole lot of set up, discussion, or long list of every little nuance I’m about to discover. I’ve been known to bring a tattered book home from a dusty, whole-in-the-wall used book store merely because I liked the title.
Saying all that, this space serves to put a spotlight on books you might not have come across, and maybe some you have. If it sparks some good-natured discussion about reading, all the better! You're invited to get comfortable in this corner of my readers' lair and enjoy some fantasy romance talk.
