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

why can’t black women have a romance holy shit. every person who hates sydcarmy is talking about some “why can’t men and women ever just be friends” like that’s not all we’ve been allocated for decades. i understand that a lot of women particularly 👋🏻 women want stories that don’t revolve around romance, and hey i like those stories too! BUT black women have not had the same oppurtunities to just be love interests in the same way y’all have. We’ve been relocated to undesirable best friend roles or oversexualized booty calls. Y’all swear we have so much representation and yet can only name like 10 shows spanning over DECADES to prove us wrong like if there’s so much romantic content with black women as leads why the fuck are you talking about the flash and the walking dead?

and then we have the marcus and sydney brigade. the ONLY reason y’all want marcus and sydney together is cause they both black, they have zero chemistry. prove to me otherwise, quickly. I understand that people are tired of seeing interracial relationships (which is not really a problem but that’s a post for another day 😒 y’all swear that “the media” is trying to trick black women into marrying out or something stupid like that when we all know black women marry in their race more than any other demographic. imma just say black women should go where they are loved and fuck the noise) but y’all do this with nearly every show. Pairing characters together cause they’re the same race even though they have nothing in common. Nonblack people love doing this which i know why but again not the post.

But what REALLY pisses me off is calling Chefs Kiss a mentor/mentee relationship and then proceeding to ship sydney and MARCUS???

like you can’t be serious. carmy so clearly sees syd as his equal proven by the fact he wants to revamp his BUSINESS, his LIVELIHOOD with her. someone he’s known the least amount of time.

We’ve discussed this before but we know why Jeremy is probably wary about romance because of how hypersexual his previous job was and i get that, but I have yet to see a sydcarmy fan who wants them rawdogging on the kitchen floor. Idk it’s strange the way this show is edited and the music choices, and the script is written if they intended to go no romance for them. I’m really interested to see what their dynamic is like next season if they’re going to change it moving forward to dissuade fans from shipping by separating the two(like stucky vibes) it won’t work but that’ll be very annoying.

The WORST thing the show runners could do is insert a new love interest, that would piss me off to no end and i would stop watching the show. In the latest article they said(writer or show runner don’t remember) they wanted a show with no romance plot so they better fucking stick to it. I don’t want carmy to get to a later season and they’ve introduced a palm colored love interest for him. i swear to god i will turn the show off.

Now I personally will continue to ship them i’ve done so with other ships with far less, but that doesn’t mean i’m not a little annoyed. I hope they stick to their word if that’s the case.

ALSO we need more black women as romantic leads so go read the brown sister novels (chloe brown, dani brown, and eve brown) and hype them up so we can get movies( or in a perfect world a TV SERIES 🤭) based on them

TLDR: it’s dumb to hate sydcarmy cause you personally hate interracial relationships, if they mean no romance they should do no romance, that article was dumb and didn’t need to come out when we’ve already heard from both lead actors they don’t like the ship. we got it the first time. also read the brown sisters and spread the word so we can get a tv show about them thanks.

Get a Life, Chloe Brown

Holy shit, one of the best romance books I've ever read. I don't think I've ever identified so much with the main character of a book. I loved the exploration of how chronic pain affects your life & relationships, without it being too much (or the conclusion being that you can't have relationships, romantic or otherwise!). This was saccharine-sweet, and also pretty seriously smutty, so warning for that!

Eve Brown mixes up her words in conversation and just wants to be around people that will roll with it know what she means. Me too girl! Thank you Hibbert for writing this in! Thank you for committing to writing her as autistic! I felt so seen! <3

My favorite enemies to lovers dynamic is when A hates B because of a misunderstanding. A thinks that B is a monster or a villain (sci-fi/fantasy), or some rude and awful person (contemporary). And B doesn’t fault them for it or doesn’t hate them back. Maybe B thinks that they must prove themselves as worthy of not being hated. Like a “you hate me but I don’t hate you” situation.

Thinking of Iron Widow by Xiran Jay  Zhao, Fire by Kristin Cashore, or The Sparrowkeet series by audreyii_fic (AO3). Get A Life, Chloe Brown also kinda fits this, where the LI thinks the MC hates him and she knows that she hasn’t given him the right impression of her.

I just love it, because then character A begins to realize they had B pegged so wrong. That B is actually a kind or wonderful person, or at least nothing like they expected. That they’ve been too judgmental from the start and shouldn’t have assumed the worse. And they help B to realize that there’s nothing wrong with them and that those who judge them off the bat are the ones who must make amends and prove themselves worthy of B’s attention. That B doesn’t actually have to prove themselves to anyone.

I love the romance that can grow from that 💕💕💕

The only thing keeping him upright was the knowledge that he’d weathered worse storms and that he’d survive. That he’d always survive. But that didn’t stop him fucking hurting.

If Chloe is rococo, what is dani?

Art deco? Impressionist?

i try not to read into everything but also my brain is my brain and i will read into everything…do y’all not find it weird that the majority of peoples favorite brown sister is dani and she’s also the only one who isn’t canonically disabled 🫤…

to be CLEAR since i know people like to read words that aren’t there, you can have dani as your favorite, she’s an amazing character with many likeable traits i just think it’s interesting

#i love dani too it’s just something i was thinking about #if dani is your fav cool chloe is personally my fav #just a thought #the brown sisters #get a life chloe brown #take a hint dani brown #act your age eve brown #chloe brown #dani brown #eve brown #disability #disabled characters

Act Your Age, Eve Brown by Talia Hibbert

Rating: 5 stars Pages: 400 Tagged: couldnt-put-down, romance

I was looking forward to reading this ever since Eve first showed up in Chloe Brown, and it was not a let down! It was just so adorable, I loved the setting (a B&B with an upcoming gingerbread festival?! c'mon that's perfect), and Eve's journey of realising she has autism was realistically and beautifully written. An all around great romance!

Third installment in the Brown Sisters series

Eve Brown has a reputation as the chaotic and flighty youngest sister, but after one too many disasters, her wealthy parents put down an ultimatum that she hold down a responsible job or be cut off from financial support

When Eve botches an interview for a chef position at a B&B in the countryside but when Jacob, the owner, is unexpectedly injured, she’s forced to step in and finds herself growing closer with Jacob despite their clashing first impressions

Opposites attract romance

Explores two different experiences of being autistic

Black British, fat, autistic lead; autistic lead

Charming & heartfelt

#this was cute! #good to read in between intense gothic literature #i think some of the tropes it employed like the injury were just not my personal faves #but i liked that it stars two very different autistic characters #also has hints for talia hibbert's next series which i'm looking forward to now #didn't expect that this book also discussed the possibilities of chloe and dani also being autistic #though eve herself is still figuring things out by the end #the brown sisters #act your age eve brown #books #lulu speaks #lulu reads #lulu reads the brown sisters #lulu reads act your age eve brown #2023 reads
