I stayed up late last night and finished reading Boyfriend Material, my review will post tomorrow. Next on my list is Kiss My Cupcake. It’s my most recent library pickup but a few people are waiting on it.
Based on the blurb I’m expecting some good food scenes, a lot of sexual tension disguised with verbal barbs, and some humor maybe even hijinks.
We’ll see.
This is super random, but I’m currently reading Boyfriend Material and it’s 421 pages. That seems pretty long for a modern romance. At least longer than usual. It reminded me of a book I’ve read recently that had British characters and seemed longer than usual. I can’t for the life of me remember the book, I’m not sure I finished it because I wasn’t a fan. Maybe it just felt longer because I didn’t like it?
Is this a thing? Or is it just me reading two flukes relatively close together? Are British romance books longer than American ones?? These are the things that pop into my mind when I should be doing something else.
The top book, Kiss My Cupcake by Helen Hunting is the the only book I picked up from the library. I thought I’d include everything I still have to read, though. Not pictured, Boyfriend Material by Alexis Hall since that’s what I’m currently reading.
After this haul I’m hoping to try some more non-romance, or romance lite. I need a change of pace, I’m thinking Urban Fantasy. I’d love to read something similar to Ilona Andrews books. So if anyone has any recommendations please let me know in the comments.
Here is my updated Ripped Bodice Bingo card. Is it cheating to use the same book twice? Probably. I’ll change that. I could change one of those, Loathe at First Sight Certainly works. Since I don’t consider that a romance I probably shouldn’t, though. Hmmmm… I need to read a Sci-Fi romance and find one with violet eyes lol

I had almost 20 books to pick up from the library. They almost all ended up being books for my kids 😕
