ISNT IT BYRONIC? He lived fast, died young, and left a good-looking (if a bit bloody) corpsenot to mention an incredible wealth of poetry and an immortal reputation for romance. He was the 6th Baron Byron of Rochdale, better known as Lord Byronthe original bad boy of British literature. She is a 24-year-old computer genius with a serious fixation on old authorsLord Byron in particular. Her name is Alexia Ryan, and her singular upbringing has molded her into the perfect coder to bring the struggling New Romancer dating site into the big leagues. But like a modern-day Prometheus, Lexys revolutionary software is built with stolen partsand bringing it to life will have some very unintended consequences. To wit: a reanimated Lord Byron, suave and randy as ever, walking the streets of Silicon Valley some 200 years after his celebrated death. Will Lexy find a new love for the ages with this preternatural poet? Or will the forces she has unwittingly unleashed consign them both to the ash-heap of history? Comics legend Peter Milligan and acclaimed artist Brett Parson take up Cupids bow in NEW ROMANCERS, a Digital Age bodice-ripper for the hopeless romantic in all of us! Collects the complete six-issue VERTIGO miniseries.

Romance all the way!! In the beforetimes, romance was a rare genre read for me, but I‘ve been devouring contemporary romance during the pandemic. Finding the guarantee of a happily ever after to be oh so comforting!! #lockdownfaves @ShyBookOwl

JamieArc I was in a major reading slump so I embraced some romances this past month and was surprised at how much I loved them! I must have been reading the wrong ones before, because I was surprised at the world building and the dialogue. They were outside of what I expected and I really liked them. 3y

Picked this up at a comic book sale because it looked cute. And I had been interested in just random cute things lately. So.. here goes nothing :)

What a trip! Maverick computer hacker slash genius Alexia is a modern girl who by an improbable turn of events has coded Lord Byron (and other bad boys of Literature) back into existence (a storm was involved, it‘s best we don‘t question it). She‘s smitten but soon comes to realise that Byron is kind of a jerk. Mayhem ensues. Seems to be a one volume only story which is a shame because Alexis is going places!

I thought some Littens might be interested in this app. I think it was primarily created for #romance but it‘s for those who read heavily in a specific genre. I think there was a tweet about improving it for #SFF. I‘ve not checked it out yet but wanted to share!

Hour 18 romance challenge.
About 20% of what I read each year is romance. It‘s my go to genre when I am stressed. Here are some that I‘ve read this year and liked.

1. Romance
2. Self-help
3. Military history

Of course there are always exception, but these genres have a very hard time convincing me to try in the first place.

There‘s no genre that I never read ... especially with a recommendation. But, these are few and far between for me:

1. Cookbooks
2. Westerns
3. Romance

This looked interesting. I would need to check out reviews and see if it's something I want to buy during the next bookstore sale.

Finally got around to this WORDie staff favorite. It combines two of my favorite things: making fun of writers we love and determined, brilliant women. The art is sharp and the colors are bright. I'm a fan. The ending is open so not sure if it will conclude how I hope, but it's got it's eyes set on the fulfillment of the character rather than clear pairing. #bibloweekend
