I just read a fairly new book that I found sort of gently devy. Features an incomplete para. Short and sweet if a little cliched ~~~ Crashed (Mason Brothers Book 2) by Julie Kriss amzn.eu/2IAUMeP

Thanks for the tip, I just finished and definitely loved it!

This book has been on my Amazon wishlist for a while now. You've just spurred me on to buying it. I hope its as good as it seems. 

I really liked this one, read it last week.

Great thread girls, I've just purchased some of those books and I'm eager to read them 🤗

Just finished reading Crash and enjoyed it.
I do sometimes wish the stories didnt often involve a depressed/mentally anguished pwd who never leaves home etc and is then "saved" by a beautiful girl.
In my experience most PWD live a lifestyle that an AB would struggle to keep up with ! Obviously not all pwd, but most, are determined to appreciate life not hide away.

I've just finished reading Crashed, it was ok but the narrative style is a bit too simple for my taste

pam , that is a "go to" book for me when I am in the mood for some devy romance. I've read it numerous times along with Falling from the Sky and A Marriage to Fight For.  All of them push my wheeler dev buttons  .

Who is "A Marriage to Fight For" by? I don't think I've read that one. I've read "Falling from the Sky" and loved it.

tori -it’s an old Harlequin Treasury book (1990’s) by Raina Lynn.  For some reason-it’s devvy for me 😉!


Oh, and Hank from Falling from the Sky - swoon....

Just finished 2 books with Pwd.
First is an amputee
Second is temporary blindness.

I didn't love either book, but I thought I would post them anyways.

1. When You Make it Home by: Claire Ashby
2. At first Sight by Patrice Wilton

Anyone reading Archer's voice, or have you read it? It is such a popular book, but I just cant seem to get into it.
It's driving me nuts.

[SouthernCalGal]

raindrop, hang in with the book! It starts really developing. I loved it and found it devvy in a heart way. It is one of the only books I’ve read that actually made me cry out at one part 😢.  

It’s worth finishing 😉.

I absolutely loved it. One of my favs. The beginning a little slow like mentioned above but I'm hoping you will love it too.

Not a novel but a nonfiction online magazine--in preparation for the Paralympics next year in Tokyo, there is a new online bilingual (English and Japanese) magazine called GO that has long interviews and beautiful photo shoots with various Paralympic athletes from the Japanese team. Issue 3 is out now, all about blind athletes:

www.parasapo.tokyo/gojournal/en/

Also check out issue 2 for some super hot amputee guys.

It's a great magazine with a very positive attitude, no inspiration porn nonsense. The idea is to get people excited about the athletes and their sports as sports. The article on blind judo wrestler Fujimoto Satoshi is so good. There's even more photos of him here:

That was so cool! Thanks for sharing!
Brings back memories from the 2010 winter Olympics. It was held in my home town, Vancouver and so we had an amazing time, but what we really enjoyed was the Paralympics! We went to so many sports events including a few sledge hockey game. The athletes often came out to speak to my kids. I think we might have enjoyed it more than the Olympics.

I’ve been binging on manga with blind guy characters lately, so much of it is really terrible but I thought I’d share anyway.

[Sen] Zyouya no chigiri by Okadaya Tetsuzoh
M-M erotica set in historical Japan with some supernatural content. Sensai is a soul-eater disguised as a (partially) blind masseur who travels around with his samurai boyfriend granting wishes to desperate people. The art is really beautiful but the dev factor was only moderate for me because the blindness is not treated very realistically. The weird title makes it hard to search but you can read all 2 volumes here:
mangarock.com/manga/mrs-serie-200078410/chapter/mrs-chapter-200078596

Koko ni aru kimi no oto
Also m-m erotica with a blind masseur, this time set in contemporary Japan. A TV drama writer goes to a hot springs resort on vacation and falls for the blind guy employed at the inn to give massages. It’s so slight I can’t even remember if I read this before but the guy is super cute, even if the writing is pretty weak.

Flawless
Indonesian webtoon about a middle school girl who falls for a blind guy. The writing is very childish and like a lot of webtoons the pace is unbearably slow. But even though the plot is ridiculous and makes no sense I kind of have a soft spot because it’s the kind of thing I might have written as a kid, or at least the guy is a character I might have invented when I was much younger.

Golden Kamuy 
super violent action manga, about criminals in northern Japan in the early 20th century. A gang of blind guys shows up in chapter 119. They are the bad guys but it’s still kind of interesting.
mangarock.com/manga/mrs-serie-87862/chapter/mrs-chapter-100095674

Abyss Rage by Narita Nariaki
Super violent martial arts manga about a blind guy martial arts master named Shinobu. His girlfriend is kidnapped and he’s forced to battle dozens of criminals to the death to get her back. This manga is objectively terrible—the art is bad, the writing is dumb, it’s sexist and homophobic. And yet to my shame I find it devvy as hell. Shinobu is so cute and I love the way he uses echolocation when he’s fighting. I’m embarrassed to even mention this title but if you liked Shigurui you might like this too.

So I guess it’s official, I will read and enjoy any old trash as long as there is a cute blind guy in it. 😂
