Textual Relations Textual Relations by Cate Ashwood
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

A cute little novella with the worlds most oblivious man ever, plus a bi-awakening. Generally a sweet fluffy read, with absolutely no angst.

The main issue I had was that I had a little trouble connecting with this, and buying into the emotions between the MCs because I felt like I never got to know Asher. It's all Henry's POV, and Asher stays sort of...perfect? They say he's a player, but he gets hooked onto Henry immediately so we never seen any evidence of that (novella problems I suppose). But that leads to not much depth in the connection since he doesn't have much depth himself. A small issue, but the main one I had.

Anyway, still sweet. Good for a quick palate cleanser type fluff read.

Erratic's Christmas Romance Book Round-Up 2023 Edition

If you were here last year you may remember me saying I was going to stick with Hallmark movies instead of reading Christmas romance books in 2023. WELL GUESS WHAT. I lied. I watched basically zero Hallmark movies and read approximately three thousand Christmas books because I did not choose self-care. This year's crop of Christmas horrors was worse than last year's which is saying a lot. Even more death, even more mayhem, even less romance, and even more overly dramatic dingalings ruining Christmas for everyone around them but especially ruining it for me. Also, apologies this is super late I was busy doing stuff like "not reading" and "procrastinating" and "washing my hair" and didn't finish the last Christmas book until December 30th. Just like last year, I've ordered the reviews below based on the rating I gave them on Goodreads from highest to lowest. Clicking on the title of the book will take you directly to my Goodreads review.

Horse Question 1: If Landon and Casey were actually thoroughbreds and racing the triple crown which one would win? Rachel: Landon would win because he runs a lot and Casey hates running.

Rachel: The first thing that popped into my head was Daddy’s Little Sad Sack, but Landon deserves better. How about Unexpected Hero? Regular Question 3: If you rewrote the book as a paranormal romance what would each character be? Rachel: Casey would be a laid back and helpful ghost who is kind of annoying but is also good company. Landon would be a cursed
