No! Please don't. I enjoy the monthly recap. I'm also nearly done with your book and have found it very useful.

Love your recs - always toggle over to Libby to request your faves from the library. Keep doing it!

DO NOT STOP!!!!! I deeply appreciate these and have found so many things I’ve loved that the algorithm didn’t show me. Especially knowing how busy you are, it’s so great that you do this for us.

Don’t stop the reading roundups! I always walk away with a new rec or a review of a book already on my TBR. This is valuable literary content!

Phew - thank you!!

Oh my god I will absolutely take to my bed if you stop these! Haha JK…please keep doing them if you can. I’ve been putting so many good recs of yours on hold.

Oh good!! <3

Hello,

Such a great selection. I’m always moved by how much you read despite your packed schedule. It speaks to a real dedication. As a first-time mom to a 4-month-old, it honestly gives me so much hope that it’s still possible to carve out that kind of time for yourself. Thank you for that.

It absolutely is possible!! (Although to be fair, I haven't watched more than a few hours of a non-kid TV show or movie in years.)

I’ve enjoyed them so much, trying many that I would not have without the recommendation!

I love your reading roundups--I think your taste in books is pretty close to mine, so it's great to get some book recs.

I love your book recs! I always put at least one (often more) on my Libby holds list

I love these! Would you ever consider giving these star reviews?

Amanda Litman's avatar

I’ve considered it but I know how sensitive I am when I see four star reviews on my books so I think qualitative reviews are kinder.

I personally love the qualitative reviews - especially as someone who is team "3 stars for me is technically really quite good!" while knowing that's a logic that is unfit for the internet (I don't want to hurt authors!)

Yes I love book recs!

I love these and so appreciate the variety, the little synopsis and why/what you liked or didn't. They're so fun to read and I always have some new books on my TBR list :)

I really enjoy the book recs a lot, have already listened to multiple of your recommendations as audiobooks. I am always looking forward to your book reports each month! :)

I LOVE them, and love to see your mix of reads and what you think.

I like getting book recs! I also love a second chance romance.
