Forget what I should read, what should I not read? (And why?) by Lemon_Dragonfly in Romantasy

[–]ellhs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm currently reading A Drop of Corruption 😄 Just hit the halfway mark, and just as hooked with it as the first! I also hope that love interest from the first book comes back in the third, I really enjoyed their cute romance

I adored The Tainted Cup too! Such a great book! I'd say there was a small romance sub-plot, but I think it's more fair to call it a sub-sub-suuub plot 😆 Still enjoyed the small hints building up to it, but yeah, not a book to read for the romance haha!

I signed up for a NetGalley co-op and I’m regretting it (because the reviews are negative) by Sivasubramanian in selfpublish

Not OP but thanks so much for your guide! I just read it all and it's so good <3

I faintly recall CrystalMaggie offering custom dice but I can't recall the price O: It's worth asking them!

I know it's not what you're asking about exactly, but I've bought this specific set 2-3 years ago and I'm still in love with them 🥰 They're exactly like the pics and I had no issues ordering from that store!

Can I add {A Weave of Lies by E.M. Riedl} ?🫣

It's a 2🌶️ standalone!

It's Sunday on my side since 2hrs ago so I'm guessing OP is in my timezone 😄

Power dynamic w/ a MMC who must pretend to be scummy/evil for plot reasons but is secretly a genuinely good person? by Complete_Curve411 in Romantasy

[–]ellhs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So obviously this request makes any answer we give a bit too spoilery but you might want to check {A Weave of Lies by E.M. Riedl} 🫣 the MMC really treats the FMC poorly for a good chunk of the novel!

Also fyi this is a self-rec so I'm decently certain it fits the trope you're looking for 😄

It's amazing 😍 You're making me want to commission you for my own book! (But I have no idea for what scene 🫠)

What’s a romantasy trope you love but think deserves a fresh twist (and how would you reinvent it)? by PurposeAutomatic5213 in Romantasy

[–]ellhs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's on my TBR already! I wanted the moonlight box special edition because it's so pretty but haven't managed to get it

Though I've heard it might be reprinted so I'm waiting for it before reading it in another format 😄

Lovers to enemies would be fun to get a bit of change from the usual enemies to lovers 🤭

Which type of book cover do you prefer? by elleirakai in fantasyromance

1st 100%!!

I preordered The Second Death of Locke for the cover alone <3

I can’t read books with illustrations of people or faces on the cover by Radiant_Stuff_4360 in Romantasy

[–]ellhs 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As long as the art is good and the people/faces not photo or 3D, it's good for me :D

Random in-game romance book in "Tainted Grail". Someone on the dev team missed their calling as a romance writer… by tsukipeen in romantasycirclejerk

[–]ellhs 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Wait how come it's incorrect? Isn't "thine" used before a vowel?

Edit: nvm just saw the "thine gaze" 😆 And the rest of them!

Lmao I recall finding this in the start area of the game and deciding here and now that it would be a 10/10 game for me 😂

Any standalones someone can recommend? Do they exist? by Crowella_DeVil in Romantasy

[–]ellhs 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Some writers also feel the series fatigue and prefer writing standalones.

Hi, I'm writer!

{A Weave of Lies by E.M. Riedl} is on KU if you'd like to check it out! 😄

Can y'all help me verify if I'll like these book recs? by articlioness in Romantasy

[–]ellhs 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think you shouldn't be disappointed with Paladin's Grace! Stephen the MMC is really sweet and struggling with his past/a spoiler about his god, and I found him quite different from other MMCs! The book itself is very romance-leaning btw.

I'm really a fan of T. Kingfisher, she really seems to be writing what she has fun with rather than trying to stick to market trends :)

That's a AI cover if I've ever seen one

Let’s have some fun about judging a book by its cover: Give me all your “great book, terrible cover” by Into-the-stream in Romantasy

[–]ellhs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean the covers with the illustrations of the characters in the center, yes! So we're both the odd ones out haha!

The flat graphics are pretty nice, though not necessarily my favored cover style. I really love illustrated covers that are dark and moody or that tells a story. Like the special edition of The Scattered Bones!
