The 10 Best Book Boyfriends
The more romance or fantasy novels released, the more boyfriends to choose from.
Female authors know how to write love stories and know how to write a swoon-worthy leading man. Sometimes, especially in Romantasy novels, the villain is a better book boyfriend for readers than the hero. Shoutout to Rhysand and Xaden!

Welcome to the newcomers, and if you didn’t know, I am the resident critic! There are some books I will be reading with the community and some other novels that are trending. I have always wanted to read A Court of Thorns and Roses by Sarah J. Maas because Maude Garrett and the rest of the community have spoken so highly of the series.
Everyone has fallen in love with this series, and it was a joy to read along with our incredible community. As a new reader, I wanted to dive into as many series as possible this year. So not only will you be getting a review for the first instalment of this series, but the rest as well!

What Comes After ‘Iron Flame’ by Rebecca Yarros?
Everyone has finished Iron Flame, and we eagerly await book three in The Empyrean series. There is no release date for the third book in the series…even though it did show up on Goodreads that it would be November 2024 at one time. Rebecca Yarros said she would need to take a bit more time with the third one, so naturally, we’re in for a wild ride.
After reading Iron Flame, it’s impossible not to have any theories on deck. Too much happened in Part Two of that novel, and Yarros left us hanging…again. Here are some theories swirling around the Internet that could come true in The Empyrean Book 3.
