Doing a 2019 book challenge? Any recommendations for a book with NO sex in it, can’t be a kids book or juvenile fiction either…any recommendations?
Doing a 2019 book challenge? Any recommendations for a book with NO sex in it, can’t be a kids book or juvenile fiction either…any recommendations?
As far as I can remember, The Breakdown by B. A. Paris and Pretty Baby by Mary Kubica don’t have sex in them (I might be wrong though).
Cozy mystery books
What genre are you looking for? Does non-fiction count?
Any genre is fine. I was thinking, Robyn Carr, Debbie Mccomber or Sherryl Woods but it’s been awhile since I’ve picked up any of those books. And I couldn’t remember
Thank you for the work you do BTW! Oldies, but I think Catherine Cookson doesn’t have sex. I’m assuming FTB is ok.
If you like detective stuff, Sue Grafton’s books FTB at that moment too. Mine – definitely don’t ! LOL
@Trish what’s FTB?
@Kelly – sorry fade to black
@Trish ok I’ll look that one up. Thank you for the suggestion
@Kelly – is this the book hoarder challenge? You can check that image on the page and see people’s suggestions. Also, read a book that fits another category and if there’s no sex you can put it in this category instead. 😀
@Trish yep. I’m going to try to do that but I was hoping to get the books together in order before the challenge and then read them in order. But I may have to do that instead. Thanks for the help!
@Kelly – if you’re interested in trying one of my books, I’m willing to gift for an honest review.
@Trish sure! I would love to read it! I think ARC is one of the bonus categories and a book gifted to me is one of the regular categories!
@Kelly – I PM’d you.
Debbie Macomber books
Redeeming Love by Francine Rivers ?
Kid’s series, my favorite Betsy-Tacy series by Maud Hart Lovelace
Can’t be a kids series
sorry mis-read that!
The indigo girl was a good historical fiction novel. Dorothea Benton Frankbooks are set in modern day South Carolina. There is romance but to the best of my memory, not sex
I’ve read one of her books long ago. I have a few more. I’ll have to look and see
@Kelly I think Laura child’s books are ok too
Before We Were Yours by Lisa Wingate
That one sounded good. It’s on my To Read List so that might be the one
It’s my favorite read this year.
@Angie such a good one! I second this
Santa Trial. Tess Thompson
Just read the synopsis on good reads…sounds really cute
yes. It is. Many of Tess’ books would fit your needs.
People have sex, but there isn’t a sex scene/description, more of someone saying “I had sex with X” in Where’d You Go Bernadette
Do you consider young adult to be juvenile fiction? Six of crows is an amazing YA fantasy (doesn’t read like YA though). There are no sex scenes but they is mention of “pleasure houses” as one character had been sold to one, but she is no longer there during the books time period.
I’d be interested in learning more about the book hoarders challenge.
Go to 2019 book hoarders reading challenge
This is an odd book to suggedt. But maybe how the evolution of women’s right had become? It’s an old book, but has true info in it.
The Agatha Christie books don’t have any sex scenes.. All superb mysteries.
No exit
Books by Tim Downs
Any specific genre in mind?
Nope anything is fine
I mostly have YA recommendations if that’s okay.
Limelight by Amy Poeppel
Katja Millay, The Sea of Tranquility or Tarryn Fisher Mud Vein.
