#TAKE A HINT DANI BROWN BY TALIA HIBBERT

[betterbooksandthings]

"Feminist romance novels are everywhere. With so many options and so little time, sometimes it’s nice to have a list like this as a starting point. This is going to be a very fun list of delicious feminist romance books that you must pick up and read, but before all that, we must discuss the feminism of it all.

For the sake of this article, I am following Mikki Kendall’s approach to feminism in Hood Feminism. The idea is that committing to intersectional feminism that includes trans women, women of color, and disabled women means understanding feminist issues are inherently variable and not always immediately recognizable as feminist issues. Kendall explains, “A one-size-fits-all approach to feminism is damaging because it alienates the very people it is supposed to serve, without ever managing to support them” (3). So, while feminism is about the promotion of gender equality, that is just an element of feminism. The role of active feminists is to be aware that more than just a person’s gender impacts their access to rights and services. While I would also recommend reading bell hooks and other excellent feminist writers, I appreciate Kendall’s explanation here.

Feminist literary critics have also looked at how romance can talk about the complexities of feminist issues within their story framework. Avidly Reads Guilty Pleasures by Arielle Zibrak understands the ways romance novels are a source of feminine media culture some associate with shame and censure, reflecting that the Western world often diminishes feminine interests and pursuits. All that is to say, romances have been praised for centering feminist interests and issues like love, job security, equal partnership, and reproductive rights."

5 star reads of 2024 ↳ take a hint, dani brown by talia hibbert

[sunsis]

still waiting for the brown sisters trilogy by talia hibbert to get a movie or (preferably) series adaptation. so many books being adapted into film and none are by popular Black authors, especially the romance books that are the easiest to adapt without the pressure of turning them into a big franchise. there is a severe lack of adult romcoms for Black women but a huge market for it, it's so frustrating

How Many Hints Does It Take to Change Your Life: a "Take a Hint, Dani Brown" review

Class is in session! Get ready to take some notes (and a hint or two). My review for "Take a Hint, Dani Brown" is here!

Content Warning: Take a Hint, Dani Brown deals with issues related to anxiety, loss of close family, and brief mentions of emotional trauma. It is still a romcom, though, so the heavier topics are balanced out very well. Also, if you’re under 18, I’m once again gonna be your internet elder and advise you to stay in a child’s place. This book isn’t for you. Reader discretion is advised. Spoilers…

I’m becoming a romance-book lover, one Talia Bibbert novel at the time

The Brown Sisters Series! This was such a fun time! I absolutely loved this family! I love Talia Hibbert writing! She writes such good spicy scenes! And has such great representation!

My rating

Eve Brown - 4/5 stars

Dani Brown- 3/5 stars

Chloe Brown- 3/5 stars

Eve was my favorite, her story was the one I resonated with the most, failure, and trying to find your way! Eve and Jacob were so cute loved their dislike to friendship to love 😍 it was so addicting!

Dani was a close second, watching Dani try and deal with the emotional block with commitment and relationship and Zafir with his kindness and patience was wonderful!

Chloe maybe be my least favorite, but her and Reds story was still so fun to read, Red helping her find her place again with her chronic illness, and helping her accept herself was just beautiful and their relationship was just one you should strive for 😍😍

Check out the Brown Sisters Series you won’t be disappointed 😍🥰🥵

Not me currently binge-reading my way through the Brown Sisters Trilogy whilst trying to get over a bad head-cold.

Every time there’s a plus-sized FMC in a romance novel, I give a good tip of my hypothetical hat to the author because damn, it’s sexy as hell.

Take a Hint Dani Brown, Talia Hibbert

[the-forest-library]

The Last Thorn is New York Times bestseller Talia Hibbert’s debut fantasy novel. Hibbert is best known for her romance writing, including Get a Life, Chloe Brown. But The Last Thorn is pitched as a spicy magical Beauty and the Beast retelling. It’s set in Albion, an alternative modern-day Britain, which is recovering from a turbulent civil war. And it’s home to a secret society of magic-users. We follow a hero after the war is won, and hope a flawed heroine can save them both from their darkness within. Featuring a diverse cast of characters, a cursed hero must form a soul bond with his enemy's exiled daughter – or lose himself entirely to the monster he hides inside.
