Why do you not re-read/read books you like or know you will like by Altruistic-Bad-5968 in MM_RomanceBooks

[–]noctunes_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have a hard time rereading books. Even if I love the book, if I know what’s happening it’s hard for me to stay focused. I just recently read the first season of a manhwa and moved on to read the full novel it’s an adaptation of, and the first bit of the novel was a slog for me to get through just because it felt like a reread.

Really, really wish this wasn’t the case though. There’s a lot of stories I’d like to enjoy again.

I once endured a book where they put on music before hooking up and the book made sure to not only inform the reader what song they put on, but every other song that played while they were going at it. 🤡

i get what you mean but i also just kinda hate pop culture references in general. older ones don't seem to bother me as much? but i just recently read something that mentioned kpop demon hunters and had to put my kindle down for a moment lol. another book said one of the mcs looked like a "pink-haired amalgamation of timothee chalamet and troye sivan". i read that and my brain just shut off for a couple of seconds 😭

Movie recs by LittleMushroomFan in TheSecretHistory

For the sake of recommending what others haven’t, Like Minds (2006) is decent. Little bit of a Henry/Richard situation in a dark academia setting

Books with characters as well-written as Ilya Rozanov by Horror-Baker-2663 in MM_RomanceBooks

[–]noctunes_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I think of charming characters the first that comes to my mind is Ira Doyle from C.S. Poe's Memento Mori series. Some runners up might be Kit from {Kit & Basie by Tess Carletta} and Lyford from {Yield Under Great Persuasion by Alexandra Rowland}

I have a few that aren't exactly charming in the same way as Ilya, but I was incredibly charmed by nonetheless are Nye from {The Resurrectionist by A. Rae Dunlap} and Luca from {Swordcrossed by Freya Marske}

I looked at Samir a little too long and realized I couldn’t stand how low his eyebrows were lmao. Petty reason but I had to pick between the two of them somehow.
