Stealing these from The Angry Black Woman blog:

I Love My Dead Gay Husband I and II
I Love My Dead Gay Husband III
The Werewolf Ate My Homework

The first two are about historical romances, which aren't something I've ever read. (Or, if I have, I am in complete amnesia-inducing denial.) It's a very snarky, witty writeup of some of the tropes found in such books. Which you can find crossing over into books in genres I have read.

The Werewolf post is not actually about supernatural romances, which I would have found interesting to read her take on. The Homework part might clue you in it's about YA fantasy. Except it sounds like YA fantasy romances that she's talking about. The YA fantasy books that I can call up to my mind don't have a lot of the things she's talking about (with the huge glaring sparkly exception, of course). So I guess I'm reading the wrong (or right) YA fantasies.

Anyway, all three posts are well worth the read. I even had fun following her links in those posts to other posts she made, so I'm going to make a point of checking her blog in the future for other amusing tidbits.
