My ramblings
I’m a typical coffee loving book hoarder. I suppose you could slot me in as a genre reader, as I read mostly fantasy romance and rarely stray from my comfort zone. I NEED my happy ever afters, but I don’t mind working for them – the angst is part of the thrill. Enemies to lovers is my favourite trope, but I’m not a fan of love triangles or RH. When I do leave the romance genre behind, it needs to be an EPIC fantasy! I’m usually a very character driven reader, but I also love getting lost in lush world building when it comes to fantasy.
