What We’re Reading

This Wretched Alchemy

By Tina Mars

JO SAYS: Our followers convinced me I needed to try romantasy so here I am. Why I picked this first: DARK romance (if they’re not tortured I’m not interested), morally gray EVERYBODY (put it in my veins), and she’s in some kind of gladiator-style competition not to win, but to UNALIVE HIM. Only on chapter three but here to say, romantasy can hang. We’re tight now.

Into the Blue

By Emma Brodie

JESS SAYS: WOW. Wowwww. This book devastated me but also lit me ablaze. An epic love story with a touch of magic. The book features movies, TV, experimental theater, improv, SNL sketches... and Emma takes each form further than I thought possible. As a former UCB kid I was brought back into a world I haven't revisited in many years. So beautifully written and absolutely heartbreaking — until it mends you right back up.

ABOUT US

We’re two best friends of fifteen years who are writers by trade and romance novel obsessives by choice.

Jo has been reading romance her whole life. Jess needed a pandemic and a well-timed rec from Jo to get there. Now we co-own a romance bookstore that makes love stories visible and unapologetically fun one pop-up at a time.

Jo wants you emotionally devastated by chapter three. Jess wants you laughing until you cry. Between us, every kind of love story is covered.

Welcome to Love Love Books.

Hey romance authors!

Whether you're newly published or have been at it for years, we want to know about your book. Fill out the form and we'll be in touch if we think it's a good fit for our shelves. We review submissions on a rolling basis and aim to get back to you within a few weeks.

What we’re looking for

Romance and romantically-adjacent reads of all sub-genres: contemporary, historical, fantasy, spicy, cozy, you name it.

Books with an ISBN help us stock and sell smoothly, but reach out even if you’re still figuring that out.

Authors who are excited to connect with readers in Los Angeles: events, signings, or just stopping by to say hi.

A local connection is a lovely bonus, but not a dealbreaker.

New authors are absolutely welcome. Don’t worry if you’re just getting started!
