I've read about 5 or 6 of her 24--I choose them depending on the opening chapter samples online.

I woould say they're the best of my rom com binge starting about a year ago when I seem to have exhausted Chinese fantasy movies-- and "came back to America" and Jan 20th when I had to return to "reading around trump."

I read each Hoover book twice--other than a problem with prepositions and some common sentence constructions such as
No. Never. Ever.
which get to be mighty annoying, they are very readable--
I prefer the earlier ones--like Verity
and Maybe Someday, which is very intriguing, a (completely) deaf musician and the girl who saw him playing the guitar on his balcony.
These novels are more than raunchy, explicit love/sex scenes and the usual love triangle and are constructed around serious themes.
I am keeping all of them.
I know she's very successful, but I didn't know her sales numbers
