"Nicola and the Viscount" looks like great fun! Any title with "Viscount" or "Duke" in the title already has an advantage. "Meg Cabot" also writes as "Patricia Cabot." Huh? Maybe the pseudonym (or are they both pseudonyms?) would make more sense if she also wrote as "Fred Larch" or "J.P. Smythens" or "Gwendolina LeStrange."John Smithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14692188725616854777noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3271446653985249536.post-51612972887334659362017-11-15T17:08:38.917-06:002017-11-15T17:08:38.917-06:00I adore fluffy books—by far my favorites!

They can still touch upon important life issues, but they don't get bogged down in them. It's a delicate balance between the fluff and the drama that the author accomplishes so well, and I laud them for their skill at doing so. I would add My New Crush Gave to Me to the list. I just read it the other day, and I am grinning just thinking about it.

I do believe that the term could be misconstrued as an insult but that most of us do not mean it as such. Like you, I tend to feel a book is fluffy if I've got a cheese-eating grin plastered on my face the whole time I'm reading or if my soul feels cleansed and light after what I've just read, instead of bogged down by it. I also agree that when bloggers say this in a review, they are trying to convey how the story made them feel to other readers and aren't criticizing the author in any way.<br /><br />Oh, and I agree with your boss. :) Great recs! I kinda want to re-read a bunch of fluff now.starryeyedjenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15841350560201331032noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3271446653985249536.post-32576344770343184102017-10-26T11:40:12.327-05:002017-10-26T11:40:12.327-05:00I enjoyed this post very much!

I don't think of it as an insult, but maybe I should not include this term in my public reviews. I once had an author ask me if I could revise my Amazon review to remove "sweet" from my review title because she didn't want Amazon to classify her book that way.Danielle H.https://www.blogger.com/profile/11079935240201178744noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3271446653985249536.post-47647119817012275422017-10-26T09:41:44.953-05:002017-10-26T09:41:44.953-05:00Thanks for doing this post Mary!
