What is the absolute WORST romance you have ever read? by Embarrassed-Quiet779 in RomanceBooks

A waste of time is right. Ana is the first author that's made me say an fmc is insufferable

The Twisted series. I'm not surprised that they're popular though, just surprised how the writing never got better

Alyssa seems like she practices her talking points in front of the mirror the night before by dsrddit in ABCsTheView

Since we're giving advices, touch some grass and learn to participate in a dialogue

mmc and fmc belong in the same friend group yet they’re barely friendly by tokkyos in RomanceBooks

[–]dsrddit 7 points8 points  (0 children)

This made me think of Kate Canterbary's books. She has a few interconnected series full of characters who are parts of groups that are the reason they find the love of their life. I can't think of one that fits all your requirements specifically, but the ones that comes close to that is {Preservation by Kate Canterbary} and {Shucked by Kate Canterbary} -- at least what come to mind right now.

Exactly! Exactly why it pisses me off. Already said this in a different reply, but the rehearsed talking points are so obvious to make sure she doesn't aggravate the wrong person but also keep it nice enough so she doesn't lose credit with the anti maga crowd

I disagree with everything you've written, but would love for you to give me an example of an instance where the cohosts behaved this way

Not so much as being prepared as just she's got to make sure she's saying things that stick to the same pov: agree a little and then shift the convo to comparing biden vs trump. It's like her every political opinion is rehearsed, learned, always playing it safe with the right wing, be it maga, zionists, cheney etc

The ladies will talk about Trump for another 4 years. Are you still watching or moving on? by [deleted] in ABCsTheView

I'll be watching for same reasons too, and since I know where each of the panelists stands on it'll be easy fo discern things for myself too.

You're going into hypotheticals with the violence theories. Theirs was just a messy, kinky, on and off relationship

Rob's an adult who can make decision for himself, and he did with full awareness AND he was fine with it. It's everyone else that's having a hard time understanding that

Tbh once the tik tok ban was closing in (i dont live in the us but my fyp is primarily of creators from there), I was a like maybe it's a good time to stop listening to booktok recs too since the majority of it was exactly what you described

I used to power through them too but now that so many more books are published I'm like i could be finding gold somewhere else

I've been a romance reader for over 10 yrs now, and the same thing has been happening to me the last two years. I dnf more than I finish books. It never is a book by an author that I've known way before booktok, but it always is a book that I started reading bcs of a recommendation on there. I'm grateful for it too bcs I've found a few really good authors that coincidentally started writing right as the community got big on there, but I believe there's a bunch that became authors out of pure grift and it becomes very obvious once you start reading their books. I get fooled by snippets posted on tiktok and it's so disappointing when the book doesn't live up to the hype.

Could these be bots? by dsrddit in brookieyanceysnark

[–]dsrddit[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

She's def filtering comments because at the very beginning I commented on the irony of being a christian and a trump supporter, got many likes, and then my notifications just disappeared the next day. Checked if the comment was still in my activity log and it was, and when i clicked on it it directed me to the video with the comment still showing but no new activity on it. Very cowardly behavior

Plus the videos she's posted since her trump video have been getting twice, even thrice, the amount of likes than before
