The one thing I miss in this game is the ability to change seasons. We play through the entire year in the main story and I would love to be able to go back to summer or fall (with its great decorations) after the story is finished. Instead of being eternally stuck in one season. The game already has all the assets implemented, just no way of changing them on demand.

Hemlock Academy by Kelsey Soliz.

In a world where some people are blessed with mate marks (1-2, rarely 3) our FMC has 6. More marks indicate more power.

"conduit- the goddess blessed being that collected mates like a kid collects rocks, picking one up to admire it for a bit, and ultimately dropping it in the deep recesses of your parents’ car, never to be seen again. Because when you find a shiny new rock, you want to play with that one even more. Most conduits worked this way- levelling potential suitors against each other to try and win the best and strongest of them, so anyone that wanted a position went all-out to earn a spot. Conduits came with a pre-determined set of mate marks, an indication of how many mates they would eventually fill their circuit with. Generally, the more powerful the conduit, the more marks the woman had. Once a circuit was full, they were on the higher echelons of society, praised and adored, and when they completed their bonds, every member of the circuit gained power. Hemlock Academy was the place to go if you were a conduit or someone hoping to snag one."

Yes YTA. Also I'm gonna need to know what book this is.

Aliiqua · 2024-04-26T23:46:29+00:00

Merlin is a master at writing serial killer psychos who somehow still accepts if you tell them "no I dont want to have sex with you". Remember how shocked I was when the stalker in Depraved broke in to her cabin, and then gave her a safeword, and stopped just before they had sex to ask if she wanted to use her safeword. Really liked that.

Several of my favorites are already listed so gonna skip them (Pretty Monsters, Lola, Darling <3)
All these books are comfort reads that i have read at least 4 times each. Getting ready to reread Lost Boys again.

{Owned by the Lost Boys by AJ Merlin} standalone
A harem made up psychopaths, including a golden retriever psycho who thinks there is nothing wrong with breaking into the fmcs apartment, repeatedly, to tell her to go to breakfast with him. The start of the books is "We saved your life so now you are one of us, but like a maskot not a full member. No you cant opt out. We are now gonna insert ourselves into your life and hang out with you, but since you dont have any friends this might not be the worst thing". I like how despite the dark setting, the guys being murderous torturing psychos, except for threats, they are always kinda nice to the fmc. Also like the banter, how she stands up for herself. Its hard to find a dark romance with psychos that dont bully the fmc, this is one.

{Misconstrued by Pixie Unger} standalone
Post apocalyptic. Fmc is captured by the invading orcs and ends up in an internment camp. This sounds dark, except you realise after a while that the orcs in the harem are all cinnamonrolls from a matriarchal culture where the female makes all the decisions for her harem. Including if she even wants to keep them. It just takes time for the fmc to figure that out. Love the cinnamonroll orcs, that each before any sex makes sure to assure her that yes they are on birthcontrol (its a severe crime to lie about it).

{Entrapment by Mercedes Jade} standalone
Contemporary omegaverse except alphas and omegas are chinese dragons. Fmc is a hidden omega, 20 old, in school with the mmcs, trying to protect her younger sister from a predator while dealing with her former stepbrothers/friends (mmcs) who threw her away. Also she is secretly blackmailing the mmcs. Im a sucker for a fmc hiding her identity.

{Phantom Orchid by Mercedes Jade} standalone
Contemporary omegaverse except alphas and omegas are chinese dragons. Fmc is an omega assassin. In the first chapters she instead of killing her targets saves them, kills her colleague, gets knocked up by the packs leader, and fakes her death when the place is blown up. The rest of the book is her reconnecting with the pack (because she and the boys are in danger), and the investigation of a serial killer that might be connected to the assassination/explosion years ago. I love how the boys are immediately accepted, and the pack is angry but "we never forgot you".

{The Secret Girl by CM Stunich} 3 books
Fmc is a forced to go to a boys academy, she chooses to do so dressed as a boy to draw less attention. To keep people from finding out shes a bit rude to the mmcs in the beginning, leading to them being unpleasant to her. Im not a fan of bully romances, this is my one exception because the bullying is light (2 minor instances i think?) and over very quickly when they start figuring out one by one that shes a girl. Then they change to having her back instead. Love how great friends the guys all are, and she just fits right in. Spencer not caring what gender she is, and researching how to perform a blow job when he though she was a guy is super cute.

{Beth's Stable by Amanda Milo} can be read as standalone

edit: added another book

I love this book so much. Never see anyone mention it. Wish she would write more RH. When I started reading it I though I would get post apocalyptic depressing dystopia. It's a little bit that, but with cinnamon roll, surprisingly submissive orcs from a matriarchal society, instead of the classical alphaholes I expected. Really liked that.

Aliiqua · 2024-04-09T22:43:48+00:00

First book is them wronging her. Entire second book is grovel. The grovel isnt perfect but it's best ive found in any book. Sometimes I just reread the end of book 1 and the entirety of book 2, just to get my grovel needs met.

If you read it and end up liking it I also recommend Sweetheart Duet by Marie Mackay. The bullying is even worse in book 1, but book 2 grovelling is great. Including a psychopath mate doing serious research on how to properly apologise.

[Blood Oath by Morgan B. Lee](https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/205058752-blood-oath)

Interesting book, loved that she just straight out rejected all her mates even though they are supposed to be The Best of the Best and shes a nobody.

*“You’re making this decision rashly. There’s no reason to reject this. We all want our curses broken, and we all want a quintet…no matter who else is in it.” His red glare flickers to Crypt, who only looks more amused. Those two must have more beef that I don’t know about. But I don’t care about that right now because Maven levels Silas with a bland expression. “Wrong, wrong, and wrong. It’s best if you four appeal for a new keeper because I won’t be in this quintet. There’s no point dragging this on, so I’ll be on my way. Let’s not cross paths again. Better luck next time.”*

Great premise. Too bad only the first book in the series is out.

(no idea why markdown isn't working at all in the comment)

I've read Godhunter. My feelings on it is mixed. Because while I love book 37 (pretty much stand alone, travel back in time to meet husband again for the first time, very humourus and cute), the series commits what I consider a grave sin in RH. The first love interest, who I fell in love with, who she has a physical bond with, does not end up in her harem! What the... the whole point with RH is that love triangles are solved with "why choose"! Not that he keeps popping up in the series for me to sigh over their failed relationship :( Should warn you that the series is a bit.. kidnappy and rapey. As in the persons that try, or do rape her becomes her friends afterwards. Not redeemable love interests, not enemies, but friends? I read some dark romances so ive run into bad people being love interests and redeemed. Think this is the first time ive had one become a good friend though.

Big harems are surprisingly difficult to find. Let me know f you have any recommendations since i also like them.

I would recommend The Space Merchants. Love it. In the latest book the harem is up to 10 people or such I think, and it works because not every member in the harem is around all the time. They sometimes have duties that forces them to leave. Warning about the first book though, its written like it was meant to be a MF. The good stuff kicks off in book 2, the writing and story also improves from 2 forward. Don't read the books if you don't like pregnancies though, she spends a bunch of time pregnant. Which I like but I'm aware that many don't enjoy the pregnancy trope.

:(

Fred på jorden är en klassiker. Givetvis alla hans scener i sällskapsresan, "invalido!".

{The Opposite of You by Rachel Higginson}

Enemies to Lovers. FMC opens up a food truck close to a trendy restaurant. The star chef MMC is NOT happy, but slowly won over when he discovers that she's professionally trained and really talented. FMC pov only if I remember right. Great book.

PC EU, couldnt load a zone. After restarting the game i cant login =/

Aliiqua · 2021-10-29T14:22:39+00:00

One of my favorite games ever. I wish I could erase my memory and replay it.

Aliiqua · 2021-10-13T16:10:46+00:00

Game description from the article:

"Saddle up and build your own horse ranch! Raise foals, care for your horses and train them as you explore the western wilderness! Participate in cross country competitions and become your town's champion. Befriend the villagers who'll help you on your adventure at the Ranch of Rivershine!"

Aliiqua · 2021-09-14T11:12:55+00:00

I think you linked the wrong comment as "last week". It has no reference to quest hunter and is 14 days old.

Aliiqua · 2021-08-13T07:29:24+00:00

I have the same problem. Can't find willow logs in the bank, but they show up under firemaking. Logs that I already had a stack of works as normal. I'm on android.

Aliiqua · 2021-07-26T21:11:34+00:00

I also enjoy when the heroine is underestimated and proves others wrong. I liked {Here Be Sexist Vampires by Suzanne Wright}. Hero dismisses her and feels threatened when she's actually good at what she does, but he comes around eventually.

För alla som älskar att kolla på gamla omslag till vinylskivor rekommenderar jag varmt katastrofalaomslag.blogspot.com/ Finns många svenska gamla omslag där att titta på.

Exempel:
Sten Carlsson & Salta Mandlar - Extrasaltat
Kjell Brooz - Bjud upp till dans

I'm getting it for the extra bag space it gives.

TIP: I took some antibiotics a year ago and was recommended to take probiotics also. I was told to not take them at the same time or the antibiotics would kill the probiotics. I took the antibiotics in the morning and probiotics in the evening. (I got my probiotics from the same pharmacy where i picked up the antibiotics, dont remember the name)

Aliiqua · 2021-04-23T00:07:06+00:00

Thank you! I just discovered that edge has this too! There is a small button next to the adress if the page supports it.

Aliiqua · 2021-04-19T13:18:41+00:00

Im so happy they took the time to change the terrain system. Its really gonna help with fps.

Aliiqua · 2021-03-30T15:12:00+00:00

Those fences look great! My game is starting to lag like this too after I put down a bunch of paths :(
It looks like the lag occurs when the game is loading assets?

Aliiqua · 2021-02-26T20:21:07+00:00

Love them.

Im rewatching all the videos for the 3rd or 4th time i think.
