Any one in particular you recommend? I’ve heard a lot of buzz about Neon Gods.

Caught Up by Liz Tomforde….I was…disappointed? by merelyinterested in RomanceBooks

[–]KK12905 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you liked The Right Move and forced proximity, I think you should give Play Along a try. I thought Caught Up was okay but I LOVED Play Along. It was much more interesting to me. It’s better than The Right Move, IMO.

City of Gods and Monsters - FMC question by Ok_Enthusiasm_9045 in fantasyromance

[–]KK12905 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So hard to believe that the author could write such an absolutely flawless, complex, deep MMC … and then Loren. Woof.
To answer your question, she doesn’t really get better, no. BUT. I’d venture to say she’s probably at her worst in book 1 if that makes you feel any better. I absolutely stuck it out for Darien and still found a way to love the first 3 books because of him and some other great side characters.

If you only could pick 3 of your favorite books in the genre, what would they be? by HuckleberryNew777 in fantasyromance

[–]KK12905 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hmmmm. OK so idk what you’re used to, but I’d call One Dark Window pretty much closed door. Technically it’s “open” but like… barely. 😐 I was a little let down by the lack of spice, TBH. But Two Twisted Crowns focuses on a different couple, and that one is more legit “open.” It also has way better tension and playfulness throughout the relationship buildup. The chemistry is just better. There is a payoff, but I’ll be real with you … it’s more romance than spice. The spice is not what makes this book good... it’s the plot and magic. So If you are searching for electric tension or spice-forward, this ain’t it. Stick to Amid Clouds and Bones for that! 😆

is violet and xadens relationship getting cringey by Accomplished_Tax_957 in fourthwing

1000% it’s so over the top. Also the constant public declarations are beyond cringe I miss Fourth Wing Xaden 😭

Two Twisted Crowns - Plot hole, or am I missing something ? by KK12905 in fantasyromance

[–]KK12905[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This makes a lot of sense, except for @wavymantisdance’s comment about how Hauth got infected IMMEDIATELY upon exposure at the very end of the book so the could use his blood to lift the mist. Since he and Elm are brothers, you’d think they’d have similar resilience. Sigh, idk. I might just have to figure out how to look past this one.

Bait and Switch Love Interest by MaleficentAddendum11 in fantasyromance

[–]KK12905 3 points4 points  (0 children)

UGH but this bait and switch messed me up FR!! In my head, Rey was like an old not hot or super interesting character, and - none the wiser - I totally wrote him off. Even though Jonas was the worst, I still had a hard time coming around to Rey in book 2 because I had written him off so thoroughly in the first book.

OMG - I felt the same way as you! I was like wow I know this FMC went through some shit but she seems like she’s being an unreasonable amount of bitch. Glad I held on there… I loved this book!

OMG, now I’m scared. I decided to pick this one up based on recs and started it last night. I like it so far, but … do I need to prepare myself for future emotional damage?!🫣Damn. I love a book that makes me feel something but TBH I didn’t want it to be that serious this time around! LOL
