In which I finally decide if I am going to post or not ….

I started this blog sometime in 2018, full of hope of Something Big. Something Special. Something Different.

Because, you see, I love romance novels. Love them in a read a couple a week, lose sleep, can’t put them down truly big way. I have a wonderful, full life filled with family and friends and children and a job I honestly enjoy. But, in my down time, when my world is briefly quiet, I enjoy the escape of a good romance.

I love a strong heroine. And witty dialogue. And something unexpected. Historical, Science Fiction, Suspense, Comedy. I love a good spicy scene. And, a happy ending. I love a struggle and a will they or won’t they and a meet cute and a they were there the whole time and a how did you not notice them. But, most of all, I love the feelings, those big feelings, those stay with you even after you close the book feelings.

So, I wanted a place where I could build a community. A place to talk about books and characters and moments and feelings.

And, also a place to keep track of the books I’ve read. Because seriously. (Right now there’s a book I read years ago that I sort of vaguely remember. It was a fake relationship, and maybe the hero was a firefighter? I think set in a small town. But, there was this scene near the end, their moment, when he hurts our heroine by telling some nosey someone that it was all fake. I need to read that scene again. Was it like I remember?)

But, as with so many things I try to do, I got weighed down in the details and struggled to actually start. (The internets and TikTok have recently made me aware of the fact that I might have ADHD).

I’m not quite sure what I imagined then, or even what I imagine now. Or, honestly where to even start. Books reviews and what I’m reading and maybe eventually a bookclub and definitely some sort of searchable database of books by genre and theme (for that time when you’re in the mood for a book with a fake relationship with a firefighter set in a small town and some nosey somebody ruins it all and they have a moment).

And, then we’ll see.
