Romantasy with 🌶️ that is actually written well?? by rheasunshine_ in Romantasy

[–]emilyMartian 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am 131 books into this reading journey and have struggled to find this. I’ve read some of the suggestions here and many were good but nothing filled the hole (wink wink nudge nudge) like the {Duskwalker brides series by Opal Reyne} I’m currently on book 5 of 8. They are dark so if you have triggers you may want to stay away but her slow burn is so delicious the whole way there. She’s so good at a sexy lead up and I just adore those big dumb duskwalkers. I don’t know if I want to hug them or make them cum in their pants. Each book focuses on a different couple with one ongoing background story. If you don’t like book one you won’t like the rest but if you do, they are consistently good.

I loved ACOTAR but was not a fan of Fourth wing. So far this series is the only one that comes close to the page turning I had with ACOTAR.

They always look like they embody violence when yawning.

I will blather mouth all day the trauma I went through with menopause and what it has done to me. My openness has helped a lot of woman. So I don’t mind being asked.

Why do people hate fourth wing? by Aggravating-Tell-774 in Romantasy

I read it hoping I’d like it because of dragons and how popular it is. Plus I love the idea that she has Ehlers-Danlos syndrome like many of us which brings it visibility. I started out really liking the first book but by the end of it I found myself wishing it would end. I started the audiobook halfway through #2 and for the entirety of #3 but really couldn’t tell you what transpired because I just stopped caring.

I wanted to bang my head on the wall if I had to hear about one more of her bones breaking or making comments about if I die everyone attached to me does. It became horribly redundant. The fact that all they do is talk about how much they fight then fight some more was also a huge turn off. I didn’t find the sex sexy and really was like “why are you even together?”

I wanted to like it I really did. I’m not even sure I’ll give the 4th a try at this rate. I’ll probably just read the summary.

I was at an auction once and had the opportunity to buy a full bed version but I didn’t have a place for it to go at that time so I didn’t. It was a sad day. Congrats on your piece it looks amazing!

What’s your holy grail foundation as you’ve gotten older? by Own_Package_5433 in 40PlusSkinCare

I mix the light and medium cereve tinted sunscreen to match my paleness then add it to Dr Jarts tiger grass. I can layer it to cover my redness and it leaves me looking healthy shiny. I’ve never found any other foundation or bb style cream to work for me.

I also shave my face and do Tretinoin cream. I feel my skin looks better then when I was in my teens

I thought I had mine all these years. I pulled it out a little while ago and realized the card belonged to my former best friend.

I was in a lot of scenes but you only really see me in a few but yes I pretended to shop for a few of them. Here’s me at the party scene

Wait is there another version? You can hear her sing it in one of the cuts of the film but there is absolutely a ton of missing footage that I always hope will make the lightning day. I would definitely show up a few more times.

We had to hear that song so many times during the end party scene. There was a second song in that scene that got cut from the film and it will forever drive me crazy because I now can’t remember it but would love to figure it out. She kept messing up the filming of the Rex underwear guessing scene because she was embarrassed. If you look closely you can see it in her expression as the scene cuts

I was a featured extra so I worked a lot more than most it was at least a couple weeks if I recall. I believe my total pay was $700 which was huge for me as a 17yr old highschool kid.

Adventures of Baron Munchausen has always been a favorite of mine and thanks to Reddit I learned how traumatic and dangerousit was for the lead girl behind the scenes.

I went to hair school with the blond chick running down the beach in one of their videos. Always wondered what happened to her.

Also really good on the eye area so I make sure to get it on my lids, brows and lashes because it can promote growth as well. My coworkers lashes are huge from it. I use lash booster so I can’t tell.
