Readers’ Forum – February

giftHi Guys

Here it is – your very own forum to recommend books you like to other readers. Make good use of it since it’s your very own space. Have a book you hate? A great place to say why, is in your own forum.

I’m looking forward to reading your recommendations but I won’t comment unless you have a question for me.

Enter the forum, relax and recommend new (or old) M/M books for other readers that have not been reviewed on the site or are not on the list of  Readers’ Favourite Books, or you can just spout off about books in general.

  • Harper Fox’s “Half Moon Chambers” – My favorite of hers is “Scrap Metal”, but this one is also a five-star read for me. Wonderful writing – there were lines of description that struck me hard with the very rightness of the phrasing, and the MCs were imperfect men with hurts and reservations, doing their best.

  • I’ve just finished reading ‘Like Coffee and Doughnuts’ and ‘Like Pizza and Beer’ by Elle Parker. I thoroughly enjoyed both books and eagerly looked around for #3 in the series but found nothing 🙁

    • I loved these as well and have hunted over the net to find something else by here. Anyone know if Elle Parker wrote any thing else?

      • I sent an e-mail saying how much I enjoyed #1 and #2 but didn’t ask about #3 or anything else……so I’m not holding my breath. 🙁

  • There’s been some great new releases in the m/m shifter romance genre which I just came across last month. Each has a very different style:

    Love Bites: A Feral Hearts Tale by D. River

    Silver/Steel by Belinda McBride

    Winter Wolf : A Werewolf Romance On Snow by S.P. Wayne

    The Strength of the Pack by Kendall McKenna

    • I read Strength of the Pack today – thoroughly enjoyed it. Can’t wait for the next book in the series! 🙂

  • I read Lost Won by S.E.Culpepper this month. It’s third in her Liaisons series, and my favorite from her. She really managed to convert me into Christian fan, after book #2. 🙂

  • Hey guys if anybody knows any new releases which have any variety of “from enemies to lovers” storyline, please please share :). I can never get enough of those and will be very grateful for any recommendation. Thanks 🙂

    • Sirius, Have you read Sixty Five Hours by NR Walker? I’m not sure how old it is, but it wasn’t on my radar until recently, as it’s a free read available on the author’s website (which I’d never visited). I enjoyed that one about two antagonistic advertising executives who are forced to work together under a tight deadline.

    • How about Know Not Why by Hannah Johnson? I just finished reading this one. Our erstwhile protagonist, Howie, decides that getting a job in an arts and crafts store would be a brilliant way to pick up chicks. Too bad Artie, the owner, is so annoying… It’s technically enemies to lovers, although the guys start working through their issues pretty early in the story. Also, it’s self-published, and I think the beginning could use some editing. In particular, Howie’s snarky voice (first person), is a little over the top and could use a little pruning back, but the tone evens out around the second half and I thought it was a good read overall.

  • Yesterday evening I finished Sub Zero by Angel Martinez. I cannot recommend it enough! Really great SF 🙂 …

    • I’ve been meaning to check out more Angel Martinez, after finishing the excellent “Vassily the Beautiful”, and I’m on a major SF kick at the moment. Thanks for the recommendation!

  • Second Chances by T.A. Webb. You have GOT to read this book! It’s hard for me to find M/M romances (that I haven’t already read) that have a good balance of story line and romance. This was such a fantastic book, but I will warn you, that although it comes with a HEA, you better have your kleenex ready for the middle. I bawled like a baby. I can’t wait for more from this author.

  • If you’re looking for a story in an historical setting, I really enjoyed Jordan L. Hawk’s Widdershins. I guess I’d call it an historical/horror/suspense story. The plot requires some willing suspension of disbelief – the occult bits didn’t always work for me. However, the protagonists, a philologist (yes, I know, but it works, really) and an ex-Pinkerton agent, are wonderful characters, especially Whyborne, the philologist and socially awkward first person narrator. Whyborne’s friend and colleague, the forthright Christine, was also delightful. I have never read this author’s work before, and the story was a pleasant surprise.

    • I just read City Knight by T.A. Webb and it’s so freaking amazing, but it ends with hell of a cliffhanger…
