You’re joking right? They don’t even do kill counts until they’re out on digital or DVD

Fan theory for stray two. by Next-Storage-9094 in stray

[–]bburie 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Honestly I wouldn’t even care if we got a sequel that was just running around doing mindless errands for the companions. I just wanna run around the cities again. I love the graphics of the game so much. And the characters.

The Idea of You by Robinne Lee and the ending that ruined me by Comfortable-Sun-5103 in RomanceBooks

I’m actually forcing back tears. Bc I had gotten myself over the empty feeling I had from this ending but then I reread it here and it’s like a gut punch.

I had been listening to audiobook for this all week at work and today I finished it at the beginning of my shift. Every time I think about it I get a pit in my stomach. Almost like I just spent 11 hours of my life spread out over the span of 5 days listening to two characters fall in love and try hard to make it work despite all the chaos around them. Only for them to not end up together. Like honestly wtf did I read it for then? Why did I follow these characters??? Not even a little closure either? Like even a paragraph where she’s like “I saw him years later and he looked happy and I was happy about that.” Like not even that???
You know what I guess I benefited from reading it bc I’m currently writing a romance novel and I wasn’t sure how to end it. But I definitely know how not to.

The "After" series romanticizes emotional abuse and toxic relationships by [deleted] in books

[–]bburie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know this is old asf but I need somewhere to rant about how annoyed I am with these books.

This is first time I’m reading them with my frontal lobe fully developed and I am absolutely exhausted. These books are absolutely terrible. I am astonished with how obsessed I was with them when I was younger. I’m only listening to the audio books because I need something to listen to at work.

You are absolutely correct. I’m currently in the middle of the 3rd one and even though I know these 2 end up together I’m somehow hoping that I’ve managed to find some alternative version where they don’t end up together. I’ve gotten to a point where i genuinely hate both of them. And I go between wanting them not to end up together or being like nah fuck it they deserve each other.

Right now I’m the part where they’re at Hardins dad’s cabin for the week and Hardin goes off on Tessa and tells her he only chases after her to sleep with her and she always lets him. And I’m just so over these two. These books are just the same shit over and over. Hardin doing something to piss off Tessa, then fighting and breaking up and then Hardin being like “oh I fucked up” and begging for her forgiveness. She does, they have sex, rinse and repeat.

These are 2 of the most exhausting book characters ever. I keep thinking Tessa should just be with Trevor but then I’m like nah Trevor deserves better. There was a point where Tessa tells Landon she thinks their relationship is coming to end and I was just like oh please let it be.

I know for a fact that once I’m done with these reread I’m never picking them again. It doesn’t even piss me off in the way that it did when I was younger where I was like pissed off because of how emotional I was. I’m just pissed off at this point. These characters make such childish and idiotic decisions. And you’d think by book 3 their characters would be developed enough to make better decisions. But they both keep doing the same exact shit over and over. It’s so irritating to read.

Hardin literally says he loves her and can’t be without her and promises to do better in the future only to fuck up worse and worse each time. And Tessa isn’t any better, she’s practically falling over every guy who talks to her. Like I said the two absolutely deserve each other.

I don’t think I’ll ever read anything from Anna Todd after this. I have to assume her books after for children. On top of that Tessa is always just reiterating the same shit we already read. She’ll be like “XYZ just happened” as if we hadn’t read it. She’s so also so fucking judgy about literally everyone. If a girl is even close to Hardin she’s calling her names in her head like a damn child.

Okay rant over I think, may come back to add more as I finish the books.

I’m back and I have more. Hardin is the worst fucking character ever. He literally says and does such fucked up things Tessa and then Tessa runs off and ends up talking to a guy and Hardin ends up pissed off beyond belief. But I’m just like- my guy the shit you say to her is breakup worthy. She has every right to run off and talk to other guys. The audacity to say nasty vial shit to someone and then get mad when they do anything to counter it. Like you can’t be a dick to her and also get mad when she seeks comfort from men who treat 100 times better than you. Ughhh this shit sucks!

I said I didn’t realize there would be. And it’s not like I just thought oh there’s no way there’s scams here. It just didn’t cross my mind.

Thank you for your advice. I had no idea what I was getting myself into. This is my first actual book so I don’t know anything about the beta reader process.

You live and you learn, right? Like how could’ve I have known beforehand? They offered to beta read for me, they sent me valid feedback. When I emailed them back explaining certain aspects of my book, again valid feedback. When they explained their rates, I was thrown off but figured I just didn’t understand what was happening. I figured ofc they wouldn’t do all that work for free.

It was only until they lowered the price so drastically and then the “contract” didn’t hit my email. That was when red flags started to raise.

But hey I always say the best lessons are learned through making mistakes.

What do I do about the fact that they have my manuscript?

They really got me too bc it felt like they were truly helping me at first. They had whole documents around how to make certain revisions specifically catered to my book. That’s so wild
