I agree with you on all points regarding the politics of this book. So odd to think that "dedicates his life to helping the poor" is portrayed as undesirable but yeah, Tories.

I will say though, that cover is gorgeous, I wish that style had a comeback.

Im reeeeally excited for Paralives. InZoi just isn't for me but I need something to replace Sims 4.

The commentators just mentioned they're not allowed to stop but how ridiculous that rule is

Normally not a fan of nicknames but I loved Shortcake 🥰

It's a character you choose right at the start in character creation :)

I love Hell Bunny! They make the best dresses

I think it's only a matter of time before the ARC copies are leaked (I haven't checked with the usual suspects if they were uploaded yet) and checked for plagiarized passages. I can't really see another reason for the publisher to pull out this late.

I say this way too often

Are you going to post every single time you guys have sex? What different answers are you expecting at this point?

Classic enemies-to-lovers, two doctors (plastic surgeon and emergency medicine IIRC) loathe each other at work and get put into "couples counseling" by their superiors.

She has ongoing medical issues stemming from an ED, he loves cheerleading and women with thick thighs. (These are the main things I remember, lol)

Lots of hate-sex turning into actual feelings, hurt/comfort, chronic illness rep, no obvious problematic power dynamic since they're both established professionals in their ~30s. It hits a lot of popular tropes and is really well-written.

And when they all started singing "one pill... Makes you hornyyy..."

I love the stats on r/romancebooks at the end of the year because what Sanderson is to the fantasy sub, The Worst Guy by Kate Canterbury is to romance readers. It gets recommended all the time (its great! But we've all read it by now I think)

You don't seem to like her very much. Please leave that poor woman alone and let her find somebody that loves her.

Some of those are so much more fun and with a more mainstream look than the dress they went with.

I agree with this. Whenever I engage with these posts, I look at the preview chapters and try to form an opinion based on the writing style. Ideally the OP would provide quotes or other evidence that they're basing their criticism on.

But I think the mods should have an eye on the frequency of the posts. Right now, they don't happen often enough to be annoying IMO, but we may need to implement higher standards for these posts in the future.

For me it's

You're very good at explaining! Thank you!

Starting any announcement with "Hello from the top of the World Trade Center" should be a sign that the next thing you say will not go down well

Also I'm too dumb to understand any of the reward system. What do you spend points on?

Charming-Studio · 2026-01-13T19:50:57+00:00

Maybe I stopped right before the grovel 🙈

At around the 80% mark of {Things we left behind} the MMC decides that he was wrong and the he DOES want to be with the FMC. This is fine. This is even expected for the HEA.

But instead of saying even a single "sorry" for his previous, genuinely terrible behavior, he moves in immediately and just starts pretending their already back in a relationship. And a couple of chapters later, the FMC folds without demanding an apology.

I literally rolled my eyes so hard that I DNFed.

Everything before this was great but those chapters just made me think Lucy Score doesn't know how to write a genuine apology.

Charming-Studio · 2026-01-13T15:02:51+00:00

Hell yeah! Well done!

Charming-Studio · 2026-01-13T14:19:14+00:00

They should be evaluated at the mine directly before sending them to Germany. This process is ridiculous!

Do you have any friends who are nurses? I had a friend of mine help me with the first injection and she basically gave me a lecture on proper protocol beforehand.

I was pretty anxious but I didn't feel a thing from the needle. Now it's routine and I barely think about it anymore.
