Favourite romance reads of 2024: A Thread in Progress*

3. How You Get The Girl by Anita Kelly

5* - a glorious ff sports romance, but make the sports amateur, with fostering rep & a delicious long burn.

*Not necessarily published in 2024; I just read them this year.
Book cover to How You Get The Girl, with the title and author name on an orange basketball court background. Two women are in the foreground - one with short dark hair and arm tattoos has her arms around one wearing a green hoodie with long red-blonde hair.

2. Too Like the Lightning by Travis Beaudoin

5* - Age-gap, atmospheric, angsty af, queasily accurate academic life rep, written from the gay male gaze (in contrast to so much mm)

*Not necessarily published in 2024; I just read them this year.
Book cover of Too Like the Lightning by Travis Beaudoin, which shows a young muscled man’s torso and arms. He’s wearing a white t-shirt, which is wet. His chest has water droplets on it as though someone threw a bucket at him.

1. Ander & Santi Were Here by Jonny Garza Villa

5* - beautiful, funny, moving; never flinches away from the realities & struggles of undocumented people but still full of hope

*Not necessarily published in 2024; I just read them this year.
Cover of Andi and Santi Were Here, showing the title in white lettering with two embracing people in the background. Both are people of colour, one is wearing a yellow jacket and a crown of cacti and flowers; the other is wearing a green cropped t-shirt. They are holding hands as if dancing.
