Book tastes

This entry is for my teenaged daughter, Petra. She's looking for romance, but the funny more contemporary romcom side of the genre. Note: she reads both YA and adult books. We don't care if there's sex in them, so don't worry about that. She likes books with queer or trans characters, but doesn't limit herself to just that.


Recently she's read and liked The Falling in Love Montage and Not My Problem (both by Ciara Smyth), Bet On It by Jodie Slaughter, The Romance Recipe by Ruby Barrett and Hot Copy by Ruby Barrett.

katemcangus: We had to remove "Written in the Stars by Alexandria Bellefleur" as it's in Abby's library and Petra has read it. (dec 6, 2023, 9:13am)
dacejav: No Filter and Other Lies by Crystal Maldonado, Written in the Stars by Alexandria Bellefleur

EerierIdyllMeme: If she wants to try out graphic novels, the Heartstopper books are free online (my book club appreciated the way the scrolling made the leaves look like they were twirling). If she likes that, then Cheer up!: Love and Pompoms might be a fun pick. (nov 29, 2023, 7:59pm)
dacejav: Check & Mate by Ali Hazelwood (nov 29, 2023, 1:59am)
_missnomer_: You Deserve Each Other by Sarah hogle.

Six of Crows by Leigh Bardugo is fairly popular, and it has a lot of minority representation, and some subplot romance. (nov 26, 2023, 9:34am)
bell7: She may enjoy books by Alexandria Bellefleur (nov 20, 2023, 6:59pm)
dacejav: Most Eligible Billionaire by Annika Martin (listening to it now and it's really great!). (nov 17, 2023, 2:40am)
