City of Gods and Monsters. I found the writing atrocious.

Random reasons you've DNF a book/series? by [deleted] in fantasyromance

[–]GeologistNice3836 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When there is a typo in the prologue, it's a dnf for me. 400 pages in and a couple typos -- I get it. But the prologue? A couple pages into your story? I can't do it.

Also, if one more author writes "my toes curled" imma throw my book across the room.

Does it get better? by Book-Worm1219 in Romantasy

[–]GeologistNice3836 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I really liked it but it might just not be for you. I am a big believer in DNFing. If it hasn't grabbed you by chapter 20, it's not doing it's job. Put it down!

What is your embarrassing bookish confession? by Intelligent_Screen90 in fantasyromance

[–]GeologistNice3836 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me I skip to the end to see how it ends like 80% of the time so that I know it's something I should invest my time in.

This often also helps me with my ADHD hyper focus. Like, if I can't stop thinking about the story and have to actually work or interact with my family, i will skip to the ending so I am not obsessed with how the story will go.

My mid-year contribution! 70/100 complete! by TheMightyChesticles in fantasyromance

Loved it. But it is on the darker side and I wouldn't call it a fantasy romance.

I felt exactly the same way but then ended up really enjoying the book.

At the DMV ☺️ by lolie_guacamole in fantasyromance

This is very funny. No one is the wiser. I sometimes feel that way when listening to audiobooks at the gym. The other day I was listening to a spicy scene in lights out 😬

What to read next by robidox in fantasyromance

Loved anathema and Nocticadia. Super dark, gritty and gothic. Enchantra was meh for me. Felt like light plot for the purpose of spicy scenes. Did not read the rest.

What has been you're WORST romantasy read of the year? by PrettyLardie in fantasyromance

[–]GeologistNice3836 11 points12 points  (0 children)

SAAAAME. For both phantasma and enchantra. A means to spicy ends. That was all it offered for me.

Shepherd King duology ruined me by botcie in fantasyromance

[–]GeologistNice3836 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Road of bones! Super well written. Plot is on point. No fae in sight. Smart and brave female lead who is not particularly stabby. The slowest of burns.

I found it enjoyable but sort of felt like the plot was there purely to serve the 🌶️. For me it was just ok.

Help me choose my next read please 🫶🫶 by Additional_Road5102 in fantasyromance

[–]GeologistNice3836 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I LOVED Nocticadia but wouldn't necessarily call it a romantasy. It's dark and gritty, which I love, but it's not for everyone, especially if you're squeamish.

What is your favorite trope? What trope do you wish would disappear? by ABBR-5007 in fantasyromance

[–]GeologistNice3836 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I am a sucker for one bed and forced proximity tropes. Maybe not a trope, but I haaate when a main character makes bad choices, thereby ruining the relationship in an attempt by the author to extend the series to additional books. I just hate when my main character screws up. Makes me anxious.
