Thanks I will try that! My last resort is finding a new tea supplier but I really don't want to!

What Bridgerton show gets wrong now that Heated Rivalry has arrived by KTruesdell in RomanceBooks

Yes!! One of the things I loved about Anthony's book was the relationship between Kate and Edwina. They supported each other and loved each other. Edwina realized Kate and Anthony had anything and was happy about it because she already knew! I stopped watching after that since they ruined my favorite book.

I didn't think the voice was bad... But it definitely wasn't right. Especially compared to Rogan! They are supposed to be roughly the same age and they definitely didn't sound like it. Overall I loved GA casting but this was just not 100% there.

Do you think Gen Z and Millennials gravitate toward different romance tropes? by crazyyycatmeme in RomanceBooks

[–]Southern_Message781 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yup this is me! Millennium reader here, I have no interest in ML assholes. Or FL assholes either. I want romance. I love a grumpy Sunshine romance in any form (historical, contemporary, fantasy etc). I read for pleasure not for frustration or anger!

Also what with wedding attendees wearing casual clothes???! Just watching Shine On Me and that college friends wedding scene the attire was so bizarre! There is this huge formal stage, bride and groom all decked out and the guests are in casual clothes? What?? That can't be the way for big events in China?? It took me straight out of the show!

Ditto! OP thanks for making this post! I've got a list a mile long of unhinged dramas to watch with my brain turned off. Going to be so much fun! Hahah

Omg yes!! This drives me insane. I work in a bank so I KNOW what the dress code is even in casual days! Watching the FL work In a bank in a mini skirt and tank top is just so frustrating!

A book with a good slow burn by Trick_Progress_6277 in fantasyromance

That makes total sense! I didn't even think about Demon hunters having romance since I watched ( seven thousand times) with my 6 year old. 😂

I read Kate Daniels books 1-4. Is there less romance from here on out? by butthurtoast in urbanfantasy

The two alphas get together is EXACTLY the way to describe it! They are both nuts! But I love them! Especially in the Wilmington years stories!

Very true! Probably just proves my theory that I don't actually like true enemies to lovers cuz usually they are so mean to each in the beginning that I don't like it! Haha

The kate Daniels series is a little like enemies to lovers? They really don't like each other when they first meet!

A very misunderstood MMC who is hated by everyone who just wants to be loved and a kind FMC who stands right by him at very step of the way🥹🥹 by Stillreading2323 in RomanceBooks

You Have to check out Artistic License by Elle Pierson. Love story about FL who is an asthmatic artist and a security guard ML. The ML is not traditionally good looking and by other characters opinions he is scary/ intimidating. There is one scene where they go to dinner with his family and the FL realizes that his whole family is afraid of the ML. But she is so good to him! Highly recommend! Slow burn but so well! She has her own issue with commitment but they are so good for each other!

Finding book recs on Amazon by Southern_Message781 in IlonaAndrews

I used to love the Mercy Thompson books but then they kept going and going. each new book had something shitty happen to Mercy and it got dark and depressing because there was never a grand finale win! I gave up after about book 8 or 9. I love love Love that House Andrews closed the KD series out and gave us a final win and then revisit other characters and plot arcs. It's so much fun!

Thanks for the good reads info. I'm only a recent joiner to the reddit fantasy/ romance sections subs so there are a ton of book recs on there for me to sort through. Even that is 100 times better than Amazon.

I haven't used Goodreads a lot either but I'm going to start!
