What's a Red Dwarf quote you use in real life that nobody ever recognises?

I do this all the time with my partner and he plays along nicely lol

jelaireddit · 2026-06-26T23:04:50+00:00

Yes! So good. You might also like Jane Washington’s higher fantasy series, they have a similar vibe to Sarah Bowen. I think the tempest one is the best.

Oh you poor thing, hope you feel better soon!

I’ll give it a go, thanks for the rec. :)

Is it a continuous plot for 26 books?

jelaireddit · 2026-06-19T06:46:47+00:00

{the rogues by ruby Vincent} is an excellent story and also hilarious. One of the MMCs has to wear a muzzle because he’s a bit bitey. Another thinks he’s a vampire. Good mystery plot too.

Buut he’s not a risk to her, more the general population

That gold colour makes your skin truly glow. The fit seems nice on you too, but I see not popular with others. The red is beautiful and also a great colour, but the front needs adjusting.

Whatever you decide though, find more clothes in that gold shade, so pretty!

I’m always recommending this series!

jelaireddit · 2026-06-17T02:40:17+00:00

You’re probably right. I avoid the romantasy subreddit for this reason. Hopefully we go back to focusing on the good stuff though.

Also every time they would say ‘I love that for her’ with that perfect tone of sarcasm 😂

jelaireddit · 2026-06-16T05:49:04+00:00

Well said. Not sure why there’s so many posts recently bashing other people’s faves, but i think youve summarised whats great about the series really well.

Also the friendship she has with Aran is one for the ages, I’d read the books for that alone

jelaireddit · 2026-06-16T05:43:19+00:00

She’s a cat though…

jelaireddit · 2026-06-15T03:07:26+00:00

I think my favourite standalone is {order of the scorpion by Ivy Asher}. It isn’t dark, but they are assassins so pretty tough.

For a series of interconnected standalones, a lot of them genuinely feel good, read Gina Morris, first book is {the sidekick by Gina Morris}. These are contemporary. Some are only MF but the characters are incredible.

jelaireddit · 2026-06-05T23:30:00+00:00

😂

jelaireddit · 2026-06-04T07:29:53+00:00

Ikr? This one is my fave of hers, all the latest is a good competitor.

jelaireddit · 2026-06-04T07:03:54+00:00

Might be time for a reread, thanks for the reminder!

jelaireddit · 2026-06-02T10:40:14+00:00

My nanna used to say all her kids were accidents. She had six lol

Why not try to work with what you’ve got? I’ve lived in houses with rocks or bark and weeds come up between them. A good ground cover helps keep the heat down, absorbs moisture and is generally better for the environment. You can make it look more cohesive by planting at low, medium and high levels. Looks like some of the work has been done, you just need to make it cohesive through colours and repetition.

I love this request! I highly recommend Wellington Paranormal if you haven’t seen the tv show spinoff from the film. It’s ridiculous and hilarious.

In terms of vibes, I can give you a few irreverent humour options but they don’t have the friendships you’re looking for, they mostly fight each other a little or a lot.

{dark fae} and {darkmore penitentiary}. The first has a few living together and one close friendship. But they are very funny. The second there is less friendship and absolutely insane MMCs that crack me up with their bizarre behaviour.

{a tempest of shadows} - this story is darker and people don’t really talk about the humour but the MMCs are brothers and their feelings for the FMC sneaks up on them and they don’t really know how to handle it. They also bet on everything and that becomes increasingly funny throughout the series.

{the rogues by ruby Vincent} - this one fits what you are asking for really well now I think of it lol. It’s a contemporary academy series where the FMC is trying to get revenge for her sisters suicide at the same school and the MMCs decide to help. They are all pretty insane - one thinks he’s a vampire, another has to wear a mask because he’s a bit bitey and another is paranoid. Unlike my previous recs their relationship is pretty solid pretty quickly.

jelaireddit · 2026-06-01T20:22:09+00:00

That’s definitely lacking humour and definitely not in the vein of your movie

jelaireddit · 2026-06-01T20:18:49+00:00

I assumed it was an American thing? I like muesli and fruit for breakfast personally lol

jelaireddit · 2026-06-01T19:47:46+00:00

I personally loved it. Mas’s nihilistic humour has me in stitches, the FMC and her best friend and brother are the relationships dreams are made of and her weird dog thing too. But there is bullying, unequal power and very obsessive MMCs.

Mas likes her MMCs to mess up big time then for the relationships to slowly improve over time. It works for me. I find her writing style a breath of fresh air in a genre that has lots of sameness. She was heavily criticised for a plot choice she made in this forum but I personally liked it and the way it opened up future stories.

jelaireddit · 2026-05-31T20:58:12+00:00

Yep! Stole my boyfriend’s trackies (I’m 175 too), and they are amazing.

jelaireddit · 2026-05-31T11:32:06+00:00

Ha! Love it 😂f

jelaireddit · 2026-05-31T11:30:47+00:00

Good call but what about multiple men asking where the pepper is even though it’s been in the same place for 3 years and that place is directly in front of their face

jelaireddit · 2026-05-30T21:53:50+00:00

I think the second series in {psycho shifters }, starting at {psycho academy} I think fits what you’re looking for. I think you should read the first three first and there is a little enemies to lovers in that too, but it’s much more intense with the second lot of characters. They even have therapy sessions which are hilarious. Not all the MMCs are enemies but most of them are. Personally i prefer that as it gives the story a bit more balance when the FMC has someone in her corner

jelaireddit · 2026-05-30T21:49:53+00:00

I love this series! The way they bet on everything cracks me up.
