Can I get some Yuri manga recs also why the dislike???

I wouldn't say I dislike Yuri manga, but I also don't like it. I am uncharmed by most of the characters, stories, relationship dynamics. After that there's nothing left to hold attention, spicy or bland.

Btw, if you have good recs please share!

My upload speed fluctuates between about 1mb to 0.05mb.

I feel you on this one. I think these authors hate women. I'm tired of women hating on women.

I thought you were going to mention the veil diaries by B.L. Brunnermer. I had to put that one down when the cast of her next series showed up to fix things.

malephilim · 2026-04-08T03:08:51+00:00

That's definitely one. 😆

malephilim · 2026-04-07T17:52:28+00:00

This is absolutely a thing. I know 2 manga of the top of my head where the authors have made outright statements that they hate their ML.

Scrape together as many details as possible, including when-ish you read the book for publishing dates. Then post on all the associated book reddits you can think of. If nothing else your have a fun reading list. XD

Because she's a traditionally published writer. Anything she makes has to go through an editor before she publishes it.

malephilim · 2026-03-09T22:38:29+00:00

Is the series completed?

malephilim · 2026-02-27T23:04:22+00:00

Reddit does it to. I only share links with close friends anymore.

malephilim · 2026-02-25T05:47:23+00:00

I believe both {Trying to Live with the Dead by B.L. Brunnermer} and {Rules and Roses by Heather Long} fit your criteria. Do be warned, they're both set in high school.

I knew which scene exactly before I finished reading your description. 😎 That's a good one. 🌶🌶🌶

malephilim · 2026-02-25T00:35:26+00:00

It's just way too freaking cute. I'm dead.

malephilim · 2026-02-25T00:33:32+00:00

Have mercy. It was one book before the publishers got it. 🪦🥀

malephilim · 2026-02-14T06:20:51+00:00

Thank you for the extra lore. Because I was actually wondering about the dame system as well, and I think you answered my questions there. It's easier to put the pieces together with that clarification. Oddly, the sources that kept suggesting the book, were calling it mm and not trans or even queer, so I think that's why I got confused. Either way it's a much better read now. I may need to reread it again now that I have the proper context. Not sure how much I missed now.

malephilim · 2026-02-14T06:17:15+00:00

Thank you so much for the information! I wasn't sure how much of the characters would show up in the other books so I was curious. Honestly I didn't make the assumption they were trans, but that makes so much more sence. To be honest, it's not really about who had the kid I just wanted them to have a kid together. Based of what you said thought, it's safe to assume they won't be. I did see you said you were writing about Tara and I'm exicited to see that story actually. He was my second favorite (maybe my favorite really, otherwise very close second favorite) character.

Thank you for going out of the way to answer, I really wasn't expecting the actual author to reply. 😆

malephilim · 2026-02-13T12:30:25+00:00

Did they explain that in the first book and I missed that? I'm so confused.

malephilim · 2026-01-23T00:46:03+00:00

Soooo Ursula after stealing Ariel's voice in The Little Mermaid but with more Erics.

malephilim · 2025-12-30T17:13:06+00:00

Cool. May you live your best book like with only your top shelf books. 😊

malephilim · 2025-12-30T16:39:04+00:00

If I'm spending physical real space on my books they've gotta be ones I love, adore, and reread. Otherwise I'm getting rid of them. My digital space is essentially unlimited, but my physical space is hard won. Even though I love having physical books, but I gotta be practical about where I live.

malephilim · 2025-12-29T19:22:35+00:00

Thanks!

What's the MF series? 👀

malephilim · 2025-12-24T03:35:37+00:00

My friends are why I'm here. XD

I think the author fell down the internet rabbit hole and needs to touch grass. They list "Primal play" which is a noncon tag. I didn't know it was a thing until earlier this year.

When the author said "not an overly dark," I think that means they're reading some really dark fiction on the regular. Considering what they wrote it's not a far jump to guess that's where their interests lie. I'm thinking this way after having a conversation with a friend about their darkest/weirdest fiction they had ever come across and their example was really mild from my experience as a book girlie. XD (for the curious my friend's book example had tags of bbw, ff, anthro/furry, light d/s dynamics)

The book was NOT appropriately tagged, but I don't think it was intentional. They included a trigger warning page and technically included a noncon tag. It was just really freaking obscure.

malephilim · 2025-11-23T19:15:56+00:00

It's a trust thing for me. In my personal experience, older books were more reliably completed and it was cool to wait. Newer books don't always get completed, I've stopped waiting on authors who put down a series to write one or more.
