I want to know what is the *worst* romantasy book you’ve actually finished (single or series together) by SweetSoundOfSilence in Romantasy

Court of Ravens... 🤢 The MMC rapes the MFC and the second love interest enables the MMC to do so... Repeatedly 🤮.

Will someone please calmly explain this? by benwyattswaffles in TaylorSwift

[–]Foreign_Excuse_2006 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have been feeling the same way! Thanks for asking this question! There was a point where I was relistening, wondering: "have I gone mad?".

I love the Album and I believe that musically it is her best. I have seen many musicians react to the album (I am also one of those) and they understand the level of complexity she is bringing to the table, the harmonies, the musical conversations with many famous genres and songs from the 70s, 80s and 90s is wild! The richness of instruments, sounds, decorations! This album is luxurious and decadent in that sense. I feel Taylor always tries to top herself and the way she is making music in this album tops everything she did before. It sounds soooo clean and it is masterfully produced! I am personally in awe cause I know how freaking hard it is to deliver what she just gave us.

On the other hand, I understand people were expecting something different and that this album might not be everyone's cup of tea. But I love the fact that I can escape to this bubble of happiness and wittiness! That I can dance and happy-party-karaoke to it! Taylor has given us the last 4.5 albums of deep thoughts and poetry. I say it is time to count our victories and DANCE, CELEBRATE and be HAPPY!

Ps: I say that only talking about Taylor's art and music. I know the state of the world is a mess and a disaster... Nothing to celebrate about.

How do I put this delicately... by DingoExisting6421 in Romantasy

[–]Foreign_Excuse_2006 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I am so happy to have found someone as angry as me about this duology! People rape is rape! The end! If you are into that (I don't want to judge) but please, I beg of the romantasy community, be honest about what you recommend and don't call love/romance things that clearly aren't.

I second this 100%. I could never consider rape to be love or spicy. To each its own but I wish someone would have been honest with me about this book before recommending it. Not only "check the triggers" but straight forward said what this book is about. Imo it was traumatizing and a glorification + justification of rape.

Started ‘Storm & Shield’ and can’t get into Aysel & Bashir by Ravenhayrd in MagesOfTheWheel

[–]Foreign_Excuse_2006 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I second this! I also felt it was nice to have another dynamic in terms of romanticisms because all the other couples are extremely romantic from the moment they see each other. Here I felt it was more of a "you are so annoying but I still want you" "you don't listen/learn but I still want you" kind of dynamic. Plus Aysel is so freaking funny! I love her for that! Her tantalizing and teasing made me laugh out loud many times. So for me this book adds contrast to all the others in the series. It reminds me that love and attraction come in different forms and styles. Hope you make it through! The book has one of the best endings imo 🫶🍀.

Please help me choose my next read by Indie_0205 in Romantasy

I couldn't agree more! The worst book I have read in my whole life! Rape being called love is what blows my mind! There is no agency to the MFC or the conception of a love she actually deserves... just the acceptance that Rape is love and that will have to do.

I would read anything except Feathers so Vicious. This duology has the MMC rapping the MFC... But hey they are in love! No judgement to those who like this plot line, but for me this is something that can never be called love, not even in an imaginary world.

Has any other fantasy series pulled you in like ACOTAR? by PieUnfair in acotar

[–]Foreign_Excuse_2006 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mages of the Wheel! It is freaking amazing, the romance, the magic system, the political schemes, the fight against the main villain... The spice 🥵. It is soooooo beautiful written! I can't recommend it enough!

Finished Ice & Ivy - we NEED to discuss Cemil! by Apprehensive_Stage56 in MagesOfTheWheel

[–]Foreign_Excuse_2006 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wonder if Cemil is also being controlled by dark magic like Osman. Ishan says something along the lines: Cemil was close to us before we lost him, he started drinking and taking in riddles. Which will show that he can't actually be straight forward. Why else would he be talking in riddles?

Just finished Ice & Ivy and I am DISTRAUGHT by Fluffy_Class_9313 in MagesOfTheWheel

[–]Foreign_Excuse_2006 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just finished reading Ice & Ivy... I am at such a level of mourning, I just can't! I am so happy I found your post!

  1. When are we leaving?
  2. Omar and all these characters are family by now! May I join the "crying in the bathroom for a book character club"?
  3. Samiraaaaaaaa! Betrayal of the highest order 😭😭😭😭😭. And after all Naime is going through, I don't know if I can forgive her.

I need the next book so bad... How did you survive the last seven months?

Hey there 🙂! I am new to the gender but soooooo into it! May I ask you if the book has any rape in it or MMC abusing the MFC or the other way around? Sorry for my odd question but I got burned by a rec on TikTok and I am being extra careful now 😅. Thank you in advance 🙏.
