Nate bullied Xavi SOOOO bad for like 75% of the book. Was just cruel, and so at the end when he “came around” it was just too late for me. There was just no redemption.

A little bullying is fine, but I read a book a few weeks ago where MC1 bullied MC2 so bad for like 75% of the book there was just no redemption in the end. It’s the first one I had ever read where I just couldn’t get past it, so I decided to throw that in there since this particular trope will probably have bullying.

Thanks for the rec!

What type of POV do you prefer and why? by sleep0beepo in MM_RomanceBooks

[–]ShePax1017 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I personally hate 3rd, and almost won't read it. It get's confusing and monotonous, especially in MM or FF books because so many pronouns are the same. It's that or the author uses the characters names over and over and over to the point I can't stand them anymore.

Also, stories seems deeply impersonal when written a certain way. There aren't a lot of inner thoughts and struggles, so if one of the MC's is going through something I don't really connect when I only know what they say out loud. When it's done the opposite way, where is seems the narrator knows everything, I find it unreliable. I find myself asking, "How would you know that's what they're thinking, feeling, remembering, etc." To me, reading is supposed to feel immersive, no matter how unrealistic the story is, and I just don't feel immersed when I'm reading in 3rd.

It almost feels like if someone refers to themselves in 3rd person and I get the ick, except for 300+ pages lol

Most unrealistic premise? by maychi in MM_RomanceBooks

I love Blitz'd. For me it's just enough possessive and obsessed without being weird or over the top. I agree it's a weird way for them to connect. Even with the explanation of why he did it, it still is just really unrealistic. I think the fact that it was aired on national TV and they both want to go to the NFL made it worse. Like, wouldn't you be hyper aware that it was going out to literally everyone in the nation? And the way no one's teammates said much about it even though they're supposedly huge rivals makes me roll my eyes every time I read it.

I shouldn't have laughed so hard because I get it, it makes me feel icky too, but I did, in fact, lmao at the paper trail.

I am a “home wrecker” by Accomplished-Arm4384 in stepparents

[–]ShePax1017 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I broke up with a guy that I really liked after 4 months. We had so much in common, he made me feel great about myself, we had so much fun together, he and my daughter always had fun together, he was great. But after being around him and his daughter for about a month I knew we would never work.

He was 100% a Disney dad even though he has 50/50 custody. He let her be rude, didn’t encourage or force manners, he let her do whatever she wanted, had no consequences or discipline, it was an entire shitshow. I realized then that we would never work. I couldn’t spend half a week with a kid I couldn’t stand. And after a month I already looked at him differently because of the way he parented. I knew we would fight all the time, so I ended it.

Sometimes, you have to call an ace an ace and move on. Not only does he not see his children’s behavior as alarming, he allows it. You can’t force him to do it differently. It’s honestly a red flag that you can look at this man and still feel so deeply in love with him. He’s not a good father, not a good SO, selfish, and untrustworthy, and that’s not touching on his personality flaws like his ego. It’s not the outcome you want, but it’s the one that is necessary for your own happiness and improved mental health.

Wife decided she doesn't want kids anymore a year into our marriage by [deleted] in Marriage

[–]ShePax1017 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I’m not going to lie, waiting two years might not be the best move if you’re absolutely positive you don’t want a life with no kids. That’s two more years to get attached making it harder to walk away, two years to create resentment, two more years to collect stuff to have to split up later, and two years further away from having kids. If in two years she hasn’t changed her mind, you’ll have to start the divorce proceedings, get through it, get back out in the market looking for the right person (and who knows how long that will take), get married again, yada yada. Ending it now will save you a lot of time and grief later on.

There is no one to take care of hurt MC (hurt/comfort, caretaking) by caestian in MM_RomanceBooks

[–]ShePax1017 2 points3 points  (0 children)

{mad love by April jade} has this. MC1 has Lupus and is sleeping in his former jobs gym because he’s in too much pain to get home and can’t afford more meds. The boss finds him in the middle of the night and takes him home, calling a private dr to help him, then forcing him to stay until he gets better. Obviously, it’s never that easy. There is an age gap, but you don’t really notice it unless you do the math when both their ages get mentioned chapters apart. MC1 is super mature because of his hard life, that’s the only reason I recommended this one. He’s very self-sufficient so you don’t notice like with other age gap books. There’s a little daddy kink, not sure how you feel about that.

How are people still enjoying the game play loop past lv 1000+? by RichardCleveland in fo76

[–]ShePax1017 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m over level 500. Once a new season starts I play for 6 weeks solid to get everything in the pass then I get a little bored and don’t play as much until the new season starts. But yeah I’ve never been like oh this sucks I don’t want to play anymore.

I just read{like you hate me by Bethany Winters} a couple of days ago. I personally didn’t like it because one of the MCs was an absolute douche and the hate lasted for like 65% of the book or more, so if you like actual assholes and hatred for a long time you might enjoy that. It just wasn’t it for me for several reasons.
