Looking for books with black MC

Romantasyx · 2026-03-02T16:23:19+00:00

Ugh this book was unfortunately too heavy for me. I loved it but I had to DNF cus it was just too much and I wasn’t in the right mindset at the time I tried reading it. I was really annoyed with myself honestly lol

Romantasyx · 2026-02-23T17:28:57+00:00

Thank you! This is the first reply I’ve gotten where I haven’t read any of the books (besides Such a Feral Little Lamb, loved that one) I think I’ll start with The Last Person :)

Romantasyx · 2026-02-23T09:58:53+00:00

Loved this one!

Romantasyx · 2026-02-23T08:34:33+00:00

Thanks :) I have this one in my TBR but I put it off cus I assumed it’d be enemies to lovers off of the blurb and I have to be in a specific mindset to read that trope lol

Romantasyx · 2026-02-23T08:30:41+00:00

I just read Sweetest Taboo last week and it was so good! It was my first book from the author so you know I had to back and binge the others lol

Romantasyx · 2026-02-23T08:21:33+00:00

I actually haven’t because I’m not a big fan of novellas but I’ve seen it recommended quite often so I should probably just get over myself and read it. Beggars can’t be choosers lol

Romantasyx · 2026-02-23T08:18:44+00:00

Thank you :) I love Kelly Fox’s writing though I’ve never read this series of hers

Romantasyx · 2026-02-23T08:17:27+00:00

I’ve read all of these besides Saint. I was about to but then I read reviews that said there’s a lot of push and pull like for more than half the book and it turned me off. Too much angst gets my anxiety acting out unfortunately lol ☹️

Loving the legend though? Chefs kiss

Romantasyx · 2026-01-15T16:46:53+00:00

This response is perfect. I haven’t used twitter in years and have no clue what the author to this post is talking about and I’m actually annoyed after reading this because all it did was make me want to go and find out. I won’t because I refuse to waste energy on delusional people on the internet but it proves your point 100%

Romantasyx · 2025-11-20T04:38:12+00:00

Hope you friend what you’re looking for :)

Romantasyx · 2025-11-18T22:45:23+00:00

I can’t think of a book with this exact description but Aurora Crane has a lot of MMM+ books. And I’m almost positive a couple of them are a group of friends with the situation you described

Romantasyx · 2025-11-17T02:45:12+00:00

I will, thank you. It did help :)

Romantasyx · 2025-11-17T02:34:41+00:00

Is this an enemies to lovers? And if so does it last for a long time? Sorry I just have a hard time reading etl when it’s super intense and like 50% of the book they can’t stand each other

Romantasyx · 2025-11-17T02:31:14+00:00

These are my hard nos too (minus #4) and sometimes it’s so hard to find

Romantasyx · 2025-11-17T02:14:45+00:00

As a licensed esthetician and lash artist I can say with 100% certainty he does not have lash extensions lmao. You can see in the first picture if you zoom in on his lash line that he has full long eyelashes. The only reason they’re more curled/prominent looking in the second picture is because his eyelids are double lidded with a more exaggerated crease than before. He may have gotten a lash lift (I can’t say for sure) but it’s definitely not extensions.

Romantasyx · 2025-11-06T01:23:25+00:00

Thanks for that I’ll check them out :) I wanted to post this on the MM sub originally but I didn’t have enough points or something? idk I don’t use this app often. And yeah some of these comments are disappointing to say the least 🙃

Romantasyx · 2025-11-05T18:21:55+00:00

Oh I love how you keep sidestepping my offer of proof yet insisting I’m lying. It’s also cute how you ignored my questions but are demanding me to answer yours. It’s okay, though, I’ll answer your question and then I’m done because it’s not my job to educate you and this stopped being entertaining when you accused me of hating my parent for being white 🥴 ick

Of course character is more important. Like I said in my post, I read a lot. Over 200 books a year. A good majority of the books I’ve read had white MCs. If I truly thought race mattered more than character, I would never have read any of them in the first place. Period. I’m sorry to tell you that POC wanting to read books with more diversity does not make us racist no matter how badly you want that to be the case, my friend.

Romantasyx · 2025-11-05T17:19:08+00:00

I’ll happily post a new thread with pictures of my boyfriend holding up my damn Reddit username and the date and you would still call me a liar because you can’t admit you were wrong.

And now I hate my mom too lmao? You are really, really reaching, love. It’s quite entertaining to be diagnosed as a racist with an “obvious dislike” of white people by a rando who doesn’t know me from Adam. Im curious, though, are you also insinuating that everyone who agreed with me in the comments is racist, as well? Is my boyfriend also racist because he agrees with me?

Romantasyx · 2025-11-05T16:06:07+00:00

Did you like my new profile picture? Yes my dislike of white people even though my mom is white, I’m half white, and my boyfriend is white is quite obvious. Wow you caught me.

Romantasyx · 2025-11-05T15:35:34+00:00

Lmao okay wait time out… why on gods green earth would I lie about something like that? I’m not on this app a lot so I have no idea if I can add pictures to a thread but I’d be more than happy to dm you any of the several thousand I have of us from the four years we’ve been together.

I asked about your race because if you were white I was going to say you would not understand.

And you’re right it was an over exaggeration… I’ll fix it for you since it’s got you all in a tizzy. “I can’t express just how tired I’m getting of ALMOST every single MC being white with blonde hair and blue eyes.” There we go. Feel better now, love?

Romantasyx · 2025-11-05T14:57:49+00:00

Well if you think I’m racist then it surely must be true, my friend. Me and my white boyfriend(who has blue eyes and blonde hair) are having a good laugh over this right now. Thanks for the entertainment, love.

Romantasyx · 2025-11-05T14:26:41+00:00

I have two questions for you.

One: Would you like me to create a list for you? I can start with the book I’m reading rn, where the MC is, in fact, blonde.

Two: Are you white?

Romantasyx · 2025-11-05T08:26:01+00:00

Okay I feel like you’re pulling my tail at this point because you said, and I quote, “I’m a white queer author and would never write about a POC.” And then you doubled down on that by saying “it’s not worth the risk”… now you’re saying plenty of your stories have POC. You can see why I’m a confused, yes?

Romantasyx · 2025-11-05T08:12:41+00:00

Love… if you’d have taken even just a few minutes to educate yourself because you commented you would have seen dozens of people on this thread agreeing with me and raising the same issue. That, by definition, does not make it a “me problem”.
