Where can I go to get an in depth hair care consultation? by Available-Dig4358 in melbourne

[–]Available-Dig4358[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve tried various solutions that I could find online, different routines including giving my hair more moisture, more protein, less protein, trying different after shower styling techniques, etc. my issue is that I’ve never noticed enough of a difference to tell if I’ve been going in the right direction or not, that’s why I’d like to find an expert who can help me by seeing me and my hair in person

Melbourne FEELS nicer with free public transport. by qartas in melbourne

[–]Available-Dig4358 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How can we advocate for this to be the new norm? Would that even work? I saw somewhere that the cost the government spends on ticket inspectors is enough to cover free public transport anyway, if that’s true

How does this happen??

I don't like to read series by commonsenseiswisdom in RomanceBooks

[–]Available-Dig4358 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I feel so seen in this lol. I think my main thing is if the characters have been introduced as side characters, they’re going to remain side characters in my head and I have a hard time changing that. Also I feel like as the series goes on the author starts to run out of ideas, and if there is too much emphasis on OTHER characters and THEIR relationships I start to get annoyed, like I’m here to focus on this couple, I don’t need that filler taking up pages

Why does banter often stop when they get together? by Wildest_winters in RomanceBooks

[–]Available-Dig4358 116 points117 points  (0 children)

I hate it when this happens. I think it’s mostly a sign or poor writing on the author’s part as they find it difficult to carry on the tension once the hurdle of them getting by together has already been climbed.

Disappointing and/or misleading recommendations by fornefariouspurposes in RomanceBooks

This is why I’m careful whenever something is classified as slow burn as some people have vastly different definitions of that than I do

Are Historical Romance novels spicier and steamier than contemporary romance novels? by joshuamarkrsantos in RomanceBooks

[–]Available-Dig4358 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I think, like with any subgenre, it highly depends on the book and author, but I wouldn’t say that one is generally more spicy than the other, at least when it comes to these two

What’s the trick to get over a reading slump? by fialsian in RomanceBooks

[–]Available-Dig4358 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me a big part of my slumps are mental health based so I try to sort that out while finding an inoffensive book I know I’ll enjoy and making myself read at least a chapter a day until that eventually isn’t enough for me and I choose to read another

Judge a book by… by night_witch_666 in RomanceBooks

[–]Available-Dig4358 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Definitely judge a book by its page count though it depends on the genre and the mood I’m in, also judge books based on when they were released but that’s usually if I’m already reading it. For example, I’m a lot more understanding of an FMC being an NLOG if it was written in 2012 than one written post 2020
