Gay romance novels omg

[fenlings]

Has anyone seen these?

Do we know if they're any good? It's just like... mind-boggling that they're out there in a romance line-type format. Two guilty pleasures in one!

But with a name like Romentics and positive reviews saying, "When reading overlook the grammatical errors," I'm thinking it leans more towards the romance novel line quality and less toward the good slash fiction side.

Hee, I like the review that's like, "I wish there had been fewer sex scenes, but then I'm a female lol." I was like ...woman, there are some people you need to meet.

But yeah, I've found that gay romance novels are mostly better in the concept than in the execution.

Haha of course women don't like to read about gay sex. PWPs are just an excuse for character development.

It's so stupid that the best gay romance writers obviously aren't being published, even the original fic writers. ::reminds self to buy naomi novik:: But I guess it works out for meeee. More free novels I can read at work!

omg, you so SHOULD. It's *amazing* (not that this comes as a shock, or anything). But yeah, I always feel obligated to buy stuff that gets published by fan writers, just because I get so much awesome free reading from them every day.

I think it's amazing to watch how she's grown as a writer.
