i’ve spent twenty-eight years doing what everyone around me expected me to do…being what everyone around me has expected me to be. and it’s horrid to be someone else’s vision of yourself.

"Sarah Maclean tends to take real historical events and societal mores and twist them to modern mores and ethics and I love that. I see a lot of complaints about it, mostly I sometimes think, because people haven’t stopped to study the history behind the eras they read. I find her settings immediately recognizable. I tend to worry more when people complain about historical accuracy because it’s outside the norm of what they typically see in historical romance. The marry young/lady’s a virgin/women don’t work outside the home/boy there were huge age gaps everywhere got a lot of story time and press because they were values society wanted to promulgate, but were really only practiced or able to be practiced by a very, very narrow margin of people; typically white and middle class. The lower classes and people of color didn’t have the luxury, the artists, philosophers, criminals, and world changers didn’t want to, and the upper classes didn’t have to. The immigrants, Catholics, Jews, people of color, and people of color who are now considered white weren’t allowed to. But most readers reject those other histories because they haven’t delved deeply enough into real history to know all of that other history even exists."

"I knew Knockout was going to take on something pretty modern and heavy, as well—the realization that criminal justice and social justice are often at odds. This is a massive conflict—one that hits at the core of a person’s identity, especially when they realize they are part of a problem, not a solution. So I was excited and very nervous about tackling it. But I’m very proud of where I ended up. Romance is a deeply political genre because it deals with such fundamental issues—who is afforded happiness, whose love is valued, what joy and hope and triumph look like in the hands of those who are not always prioritized for those things. I have always written with this as my true north. And every book, I feel like I have to prove it to publishing, to reviewers, to readers. I think the learning moment is always the same…the realization that I will always have to convince people that this genre is a powerful, important reflection of not just who we are, but who we might become."

November 2024 Reading Recap
Wow, I feel like November was over in the blink of an eye, and now we’re racing toward the end of the year!  November wasn’t the best reading month for me, but I decided to book a last-minute solo trip to Munich, Germany, over Thanksgiving, so a lot of my free time was devoted to planning that. And I have zero regrets as I had such a great trip and hit up all the Christmas markets! I did get…
