Tropes I love
A little while ago, I wrote about tropes I didn't enjoy. I thought I should balance it out and talk about the tropes I do love and will almost automatically one-click to read.

Going back to basics by Kia Carrington-Russell
Let's welcome Kia
Carrington-Russell as she tells us what it means to go back to basics
and refresh her writing career. I'm sure we can all apply these lessons
to other parts of our lives to not stagnate.

What Helen Read #51: August 2020
We almost didn't get a post from Helen this month since she had a stint
back in hospital. So happy she is home again and on the mend. Still a
ways to go but we are wishing her all the best and a speedy recovery.
Let's hope she improves enough to read a lot more books which she loves
doing.
Here's what Helen read for the last month.

Life lessons in romance
Y'all need to take this in the vein it is intended. Some lighthearted fun because good golly, I had such a laugh when I came across this, and I felt like I needed to share it. I mean, you're here because you read romance, and let's face it, there are endless romance tropes out there. But what happens when you turn those romance tropes into life lessons, and you run headlong into them or try to stay away from them? Hilarity ensues. I'll do my best to pair these with books that fit, but a small caveat, I haven't read all these books, so I don't know if they are any good or if they are an exact match.

What Deanna Read #55: August 2020
You know, every month that goes by I wonder what the next month will
bring. Things are so in flux right now it's hard to anticipate. For us,
we have been staying home most of the time aside from going out for
groceries and medical appointments. We did go out once to celebrate our
23rd anniversary, Steve and I. We had a lovely lunch at our favorite
restaurant so that was fun. It's always a good time there.
On the reading front, I think I did pretty well. I hit 200 books read in August and that's a milestone for me. I've never read so many books in a year before. Granted, I have been reading more novellas and shorter books, but I'll take it. A number is a number. A book is a book even if it's short. I'm not sure that will ever be achieved again in another year but we shall see. Who knows what future years will bring.
I haven't counted how many books I've read this month but I probably should. I'm probably in for a surprise.
That's it from me. I hope everyone is well. My thoughts are with you all. Stay safe.
Here's what I read for the month.
