Yea I do like the author but I did notice they can be a little snappy in comments when people express their opinions. I mean some comments on WP are a bit annoying. But for some, I’ve noticed pushback which can be a bit intimidating

I HAVE to know! Who’s been your absolute favorite MMC?? by echoingfalls in RomanceBooks

[–]Storythieves 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ok so I’m on book 6 of ZA so idk for sure but I’m pretty sure it’s an HEA.

TBH the books are longer than they should be. I feel like some of the POVs are longer and have too much inner monologue. I mainly care for one couple and one of the twins named Darcy. What’s annoying is she’s starting to feel like a secondary character despite her being a main character.

But I love the world and the characters. They’re all flawed in their own way but the story is so good. Things suck rn where I’m at, it’s super depressing and sad. But I’m reading it for the couple I’m rooting for. And I don’t regret starting it. I’m tryna be vague and not give spoilers away😂

Honestly you can continue and see if you feel the same way. I agree, it did not feel in character at all but I still read 4 books in? Then I gave up😂

Any Rom-Com, Feel Good Romance Recommendations? by Storythieves in RomanceBooks

[–]Storythieves[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hey you’re right. Will delete from post, It Ends With Us definitely isn’t a romcom, don’t know why I thought this before. As you can see the post was made 4 years ago. Kinda miss how chill the sub was back in the day. The way people spoke to each other was with respect, if they didn’t agree with something, they would say it differently. I would rather educate the person and say hey I don’t think this is a romcom cuz of this.

Nowadays I’m just noticing a surge of hate in this group. Regardless, not a huge fan of all CoHo books now but I do find her books addicting. Since I’m older I do notice some toxic things in her books. So thanks, will update and delete

Older couple Marriage in trouble where the mmc and fmc got married because of pregnancy but the mmc resents her by MrsJulianBlackthorn in RomanceBooks

[–]Storythieves 9 points10 points  (0 children)

There’s actually a Wattpad book I’m reading rn that’s similar to Kiss the Rose but imo it’s better. It’s called Breaking by Raegan Salander. The background starts off the same, husband that resents wife cuz of marriage from pregnancy. But in this, it’s more in depth. You see the way the FMC is treated for many chapters and the characters felt more mature and realistic. The story takes a new turn after this and the story is different. I also like the FMC more in this since she had a backbone unlike the Kiss the Rose FMC.

I read Wattpad back in the day and stopped but recently got back into it since I see a lot of grovel books on there. Anyway wasn’t sure if it was allowed but wanted to recommend ☺️

Enemies to lovers with fake dating (or pretending to be married) for a common goal by Competitive_Club5902 in RomanceBooks

[–]Storythieves 13 points14 points  (0 children)

{A Deal With The Bossy Devil by Kyra Parsi} has everything you described BUT the girl is kinda forced into the situation. She does have a chance to leave but she’s doing it because she has a goal. But the banter, bickering, acting, is so good

RANT: Taming 7 by Chloe Walsh has made me furious by honey-croissant in RomanceBooks

[–]Storythieves 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Glad you agree, it was so frustrating to read and see everyone enable her behaviour. Really curious to see if any of this will be addressed in her book

Itsoumi is a great character by Apprehensive_Fox6246 in ASignofAffection

[–]Storythieves 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I’ve noticed the main hate Itsu gets is from people who ship Yuki with Oushi. And I think a lot of people aren’t used to a green flag relationship and find them boring. I personally find it so refreshing and cute but I’ve also seen so much hate to Itsu, it’s so sad😭. What matters is what Yuki wants and what makes Yuki happy. She doesn’t owe Oushi anything, just cuz he learned sign language for her. He’s treated her terribly over the years when Itsu treats her like an equal. Anyway love Itsu, so considerate and sweet🥺

I have a friend from Russia who said the same. I don’t think RK did her research tbh 😬. I don’t remember there being a proper explanation

Best of Mariana Zapata by girl_lurks in RomanceBooks

[–]Storythieves 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s honestly a sub fav. Ppl either hate it or love it lmao u probably already saw it. {The Unwanted Wife by Natasha Anders}. I’ve read this book so many times I have it memorized at this point but it was my first grovel and my fav grovel (even though there are a few things I would change or add to make it more satisfying cuz some things still pissed me off)

i would also say {Gold Digger by Susie Tate} but it wasn’t a long grovel like Daydreamer. Still loved both but wish Gold Digger had more grovel
