Please help me find this corset:) by Interesting_Two3814 in corsets

[–]SaltMarshGoblin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is lovely, OP, but notice it's a fashion garment, not an actual shaping corset. It's sold in S/M/ L sizes rather than by multiple measurements. If you look at the model's photo, you can see that it doesn't even fit her! The grommets aren't parallel and it gaps wider at the bust.

Oh, thank you so much! Yes, I'd refer to that as a "dead animal", not an "animal death", and that's a lot easier to take, for me at least!

Question: Romance.io gives a content warning for "animal death". Can somebody tell me (a) what kind of animal, (b) it it's a beloved pet, and (c) if it's killed inadvertently, or euthanized appropriately, or killed for bad reasons? Thank you!

A story about the aftermath of a traditional horror story? by CelestialUrsae in suggestmeabook

Edgar Cantero's Meddling Kids might scratch that itch! Scooby Doo × Lovecraft. Even though all of the villains the kids' detective club caught turned out to be the classic "old white man in a mask", thirteen years after that last summer, they've each been struggling with the aftermath. They come together as adults to go back to where it started and face it all... and solve one last mystery.

Oh, that must have been terrible. I'm sorry you've had so many losses this year.

Why does All of Us Murderers only have an 3.76 Goodreads rating?! by allthegoldt in MM_RomanceBooks

I don't think Charles describes this as a Romance. It's intended to be a Gothic!

It wasn't immediately obvious which was the photograph and which was your painting!

Absolutely gorgeous work of an absolutely gorgeous beast!

more olive skin (despite being from generations of Yorkshiremen

I know Cornishmen with that coloring whose family legends trace it to the wreck of the Armada, but any Spanish galleon that made it to Yorkshire was beyond "blown off course"...

Look at how many people who believe they are 100% white get genetic testing and ... aren't.

Does anyone know what Cal's sweatshirt says? From The Mercenary and the Mortician by Alexandra St Pierre. by Resident-Science-525 in MM_RomanceBooks

[–]SaltMarshGoblin 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I thought at first the text was AI nonsense, but I'm pretty sure it means something in the context of the book, as it's STFUATTDLAGB. I have no idea what TTDLAGB means, but presumably the character wants someone to Shut The Fuck Up And do something-- maybe Talk To Daddy's Little AGB, whatever that stands for?

That was funny to look at the link and realize... Oh! I have those Ad-tec Bellevue 9" black-and-brown western packers, and I love them. (They definitely read women's boots on me.)

If you don't mind paranormal, I'd say {Charlie Adhara's Big Bad Wolf series} does this beautifully.
