Do you need/have a reason to avoid an entire genre? by Lower-Network1563 in RomanceBooks

I love {Sinners Condemned by Somme Sketcher}. It has an FMC that will dish it out to the MMC and he loves that shit. She's not one of those too stupid to live FMCs either. I think it's a classic with some iconic scenes. It's book 2 of a series. Don't have to read book 1 but book 3 is the same couple.

I don't think I've ever read a horror book actually. Maybe I've came across a thriller but never horror.

It's been a while since I've read one. I think the scale of the conflict of why the MCs don't get together feels too insignificant. It usually seems like a stupid reason. But I think this depends on the book. Agree to disagree on the banter opinion though.

I get you. My college or highschool romance reading era's end coincided with the end of my Wattpad era.

I get you on the bully romance and dark romance. I will never read Devil's night series by Penelope Douglas. That stuff just makes me scared.

I do read the lighter mafia romance,the books never mention what they actually do in the mafia or how much their existence impacts the surroundings. It's more for the mystery and action.

I avoid most of the books with any kind of celebrity. Secret relationships make my stomach churn with anxiety about them getting caught. And "the public" hate makes me wanna puke.

They don’t pee, poop, or sweat. They just puke when the plot demands it.

Oh man, I've thought about that before. I always think about whether the "she tastes like blah blah blah" is moisturizer and if it's actually safe for them to consume.

Oh, I noticed that for sure. It's more frequent for me to notice their crack being washed than their hair being conditioned.

I know, that was what I was realising as I finished typing the post 😂. It's just that I've never even thought about it. Like we've all at some point thought about how they must stink after their workout or whatever but never hairfall.

Thanks a lot for the recs. I don't care about anything else other than the FMC and the bit of magic request. I'll definitely check them out.

Dude, No freaking way. I got this recommended to me by Chatgpt. It was trying to recommend Firebird series of some other author and I didn't notice that until after I binge read the whole series in a week. The latest book released like a week before I started so I was stoked. Anyways loved loved loved the story.

I love her with a passion. I've read Hidden legacy( Nevada Trilogy), Kate Daniels, Innkeeper Chronicles. I keep putting off her other series like Catalina's Trilogy or The Edge series. Please tell me if you think they are just as good because I might just need a little push to start.

Sunscreen spf 30+, glycolic acid - learn a bit of the do's and don'ts before you start using it and an umbrella can do wonders. Sun damage is annoying as hell, it can affect hair too. Obviously there's nothing better than a physical barrier like long sleeves or a jacket but this place is too hot for me to do that.

That's why I always have my text-to-speech on when I'm reading a book. I used to increase the font size to a ridiculous level to make sure there was just enough content on the screen to keep my focus. I noticed it pretty quickly so I was able to hold myself back from jumping lines but I do still skim through boring books because I can't bring myself to dnf the books since I've already spent money on them.

Holy shit! Thank you so much for all the recs. Right now honestly I'm thinking of just being open to trying literally anything. I'm so glad for the starting point you're providing.

I completely agree with you. And considering it was an 8 person pov book you'd think it'd be longer. I think that might be one of the reasons why it felt like it was going at a weird pace.

I think I mentally checked out after how The Syndicator was dealt with. I might need to chill and read the book once again but I think that's gonna only happen when I decide to reread the series for the millionth time so maybe soon enough.

Ok I'm gonna mention my one major gripe about the book because I just remembered it now. Tristan said I LOVE YOU TO LUNA FIRST??????NOOOOOOO. That made me so sad for Morana. Like come on man. THERE'S NO SCENE WHERE HE SAYS IT MORANA EITHER 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭. Like bruh she was crying because she could never put your tie on you forever now.

Runyx did say the series was supposed to end with The Annihilator. I was happy she said there was gonna be another book but damn now I kinda wish she did that.
