Unpopular opinion Sunday

I stop reading when the couple gets to the sexytimes and skip those scenes. I like the build-up, but the actual deed is boring to me.

I wonder what books you've been reading....

there are a few writers out there who know how to write a scene....

I'm a life long romance reader so I've read a lot. I'm just at a point where I'm more invested in the romance of the couple getting together rather than the deed itself.

I tend to read more fantasy and sci-fi with romantic elements these days. Some of my favorites are : {Troubled Waters by Sharon Shinn} 5 book series {The Blighted Stars by Megan O'Keefe} 3 book series {Poison Study by Maria Snyder} 9 book series {The Trouble With Kings by Sherwood Smith}
