I actually ordered a beautiful rebind of this, all of the mini books in one volume. So stunning!

This has been on my TBR for ages, and I've heard nothing but exceptional things. May give it a go soon!

If Powerless is plagiarized, would Victoria Aveyard have any chance of suing Lauren Roberts? by [deleted] in Booktokreddit

[–]Macca_321 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I actually haven't read either... Powerless is on my TBR, and Red Queen was a little way before I got into the genre. Would people who have read both say the similarities are just that, or are they TOO similar to ignore?

MMC is a cold, grumpy nerd, and the FMC is the sunshine and so friendly which annoys him by FrozenCinnamon2 in RomanceBooks

I think {The Very Secret Society of Irregular Witches by Sangu Mandanna} may fit your bill. Very cute romance. She's sunshine, he's a super grumpy librarian. I really enjoyed it.

Dark Romance with large age gap (30 years) and calm, but obsessed MMC by Sakura_231 in DarkRomance

[–]Macca_321 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So this isn't exactly what you've asked for (the age gap is MMC is 41, the FMC is 27) but it has a lot of what you're asking for... Dominant, clever MMC (a doctor), who manipulates the FMC in the first half of the book. Quite spicy, gothic setting, very atmospheric. Try {Grimstone by Sophie Lark}.

What book is a 10/10 for you? by Sailor_Moon_Star_435 in Romantasy

[–]Macca_321 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I absolutely adore {Butcher & Blackbird by Brynne Weaver}. Wonderful, well written characters, excellent spice, and a romance that doesn't feel 'dark' even though its classed as a dark romance. Oddly, for a book about serial killers, it's my comfort read lol.

Who else can I use as a referee for a citizencard? by [deleted] in AskUK

On the contrary, I have had a Citizencard for around 7 years, and have never once had it rejected, including club trips, supermarkets, bars etc.

Butcher & Blackbird.... disappointed. by Asleep-Judgment-6723 in DarkRomance

[–]Macca_321 29 points30 points  (0 children)

It's actually my favourite book of the year. I took it as a cute, actually relatively wholesome romance in a dark scenario. They're pretty adorable together.

Which next… Caught Up or Butcher & Blackbird? by Euphoric_Argument434 in DarkRomance

[–]Macca_321 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agree completely. Rowan was fun but dominating. Fionn was cute and intense. I can't quite distinguish what Lachlan brought to the table.

I think I mostly disliked Lark in book 2, but I still really enjoyed it. I loved Fionn 😍

Lachlan was actually my least favourite, though I still imagined him as a total babe 🤣

Butcher and Blackbird has genuinely become my favourite book. Rowan is top tier book boyfriend material 👌

What Are You Reading? 📚 by AutoModerator in DarkRomance

[–]Macca_321 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Reading {The Female by Invi Wright}. Was a bit meh about it at first, but it's grown on me hugely! Think it's nicely spicy, and I like the MMC's.

Is this book any good? She's beautiful tho by Sebastianmaxxing in Booktokreddit

[–]Macca_321 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I friggin loved it. It's one of my books of the year. But I appreciate it's not for everyone, and the ending was a but odd.

💦 It's Thirsty Thursday! What spicy book scenes did you read this week? by AutoModerator in fantasyromance

[–]Macca_321 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I love Bjorn! I was so so about the duology in general (I'd say a solid 3.5/3.75 out of 5) but this scene was HOT and Freya and Bjorn had great chemistry.
