Someone's out to get Los Angeles bookseller Adrien English. Publisher: MLR Press 2nd edition (May 9, 2007) I think his special gift is the novella I continue to be impressed by how he can give you everything you need to understand the characters and situations in so few words. Plus, I could easily populate half this list with Lanyon’s books. Aside from the Adrien English mysteries just being a really fantastic series (I bought The Dark Tide the day it came out and then let it sit for a month because I was so sad to see the series end), Fatal Shadows has the dubious distinction of being the first ebook I ever bought, and it served as my gateway drug to the greater world of e-publishers and m/m romance. In no particular order.ġ) Fatal Shadows by Josh Lanyon. What follows is a list, mostly of LGBT novels with some romance thrown in for good measure, that is a strange hodgepodge of books I think are important, books that influenced me as a writer, and books I just like a whole lot. Which is all to say that I have read a lot of books, and own a lot of books, and it’s really, really hard to distill my favorites into a list of ten. Then I got an e-reader last year, which at least means I don’t have to find spaces to put new books, but I just buy even more. I own more than can probably reasonably fit in my New York City apartment. I have a confession to make up front: I am a book hoarder. I highly recommend her book, and I'm really glad to host her today. it was love at first read, Kate had it all, good characters, strong plot, hot sex. Then one night I decided to 'test' a new author, and Kate's book was there in my reading list.
