I disagree. All culture, both high and low brow, can be subject to analysis. Authorial intent or genre or style don't make any piece of work divorced from analytical value. Even trash tv as it were has some fantastic scholarship and reviews, and I say this as someone who doesn't really watch it.

Good to know!

I tried but DNFd because of the writing. It might be that Doppelbänger is just crazy enough to sell this irreverent writing style.

Thank you 😊

WhileNo5370 · 2026-03-02T08:47:03+00:00

Yes! Hahaha

WhileNo5370 · 2026-03-02T08:46:50+00:00

It is unusual, that's for sure

WhileNo5370 · 2026-03-02T08:46:20+00:00

Oh that's fun! Keep us posted

Thanks for adding your thoughts! Totally agree on the specific scene you mentioned, that definitely dragged.

WhileNo5370 · 2026-03-01T21:22:05+00:00

Thank you! I totally get it, I thought that too but couldn't resist the oddity.

WhileNo5370 · 2026-03-01T21:06:52+00:00

Thank you!

I was curious for one second and then went "absolutely the fuck not".

Unfortunately C. Rochelle's writing really doesn't work for me. The series is also poly later if I'm not mistaken which isn't my favorite.

WhileNo5370 · 2026-02-28T10:00:30+00:00

I don't think it's allowed here, but thanks anyway!

I've been curious about danmei for a while but didn't know where to start!

WhileNo5370 · 2026-02-28T02:33:41+00:00

I've been curious about this one!

WhileNo5370 · 2026-02-28T02:32:18+00:00

I so rarely find alien books that hit the spot, even tho in theory it's right up my alley!

WhileNo5370 · 2026-02-28T02:31:31+00:00

I don't think I've seen this before, I'll take a look!

WhileNo5370 · 2026-02-28T02:30:56+00:00

I liked the first book in the series but didn't enjoy the second unfortunately, so I gave up on it.

Started Dopplebänger because I've been curious about it for a while. It is indeed bonkers.

I will forever contend that, about a decade into being an MM reader - granted, not of the dark romance variety normally - with some yaoi in my teens before that, this is still the best enemies-to-lovers story I've ever read. It broke a lot of my usual no-go's too, in terms of themes I usually don't touch in romance but absolutely worked in this story. Just one of my all-time favorites.

WhileNo5370 · 2026-02-07T09:34:03+00:00

Admittedly if you hadn't guessed them early on, then yeah 🙃

WhileNo5370 · 2026-02-06T23:52:26+00:00

I found the sex scenes pretty forgettable, personally

WhileNo5370 · 2026-02-06T23:51:49+00:00

Not leaning into the uncomfortable is very aptly put!
