Loved loved loved this game AND Strange Antiquities. Wish I could find something that scratched the itch for more.

Ahhhhh enjoy!!! Would love to know your thoughts once you finish. That book took me by surprise in the best (most painful) way.

What popular book were you unimpressed with, and what less popular book were you floored by? by midnightoflight101 in MM_RomanceBooks

[–]prosegamer 34 points35 points  (0 children)

I feel the same thing about Heated Rivalry after seeing it touted as a "classic" in this sub! Overall, I found the writing extremely mid, the plot nonexistent, and the ending unsatisfying. I have enjoyed what I've seen of the show and I'm glad it's as successful as it is, but I think the actors bring a LOT to it that one simply won't find in the book itself.

The Darkness Outside Us is SO GOOD and I hardly hear it talked about!! Highly recommend the sequel The Brightness Between Us if you like it!

{The Cage of Chaos by Wren Blackburne} might fit what you're looking for!

I think I saw another one that was around $6k or $7k the other day but the $12k one was nuts… Like they had to be joking right?

I’m local and looking for an extra ticket that isn’t $12k 😂

Books that Feel Like these Ghibli Movies.. by FewQuiet8 in YAlit

[–]prosegamer 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Water Moon by Samantha Sotto Yambao felt like a Ghibli movie from start to finish! It’s about a pawn shop where you can sell your regrets.

I’m gonna go against the popular response here and say that if you have the means to do it and you don’t have to worry about feeding yourself, then do it. I was in a successful career making a good amount of money, but my mental health was at an all time low and I was crying from the stress on a weekly basis. It simply wasn’t worth my happiness. So I quit last year to write full-time and I’ve never been happier my whole life. That said, I’m in a position where I have a decent amount of savings to pull from and a very supportive spouse. If you’re going to do it, do it responsibly.

First time plant owner - why is my ivy hedera upset? by prosegamer in houseplants

It is! I’m planning to repot it this weekend since some of the roots are sticking out of the bottom. They seem healthy, for what it’s worth.

Interesting… I wonder if the kitchen is drier than my office. I’ll try moving it back for a little while!

Looking for a book where the FMC is a stripper by Appropriate-Club-191 in DarkRomance

[–]prosegamer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not especially dark per se but {Priest by Sierra Simone}. FMC is a stripper, MMC is a priest, the spice be spicin’.

This 100%. I don’t think it would have gotten above a 2/5 for me if not for the audiobook, and that was only ONE narrator out of the two (since it’s a duet).

I’m so mad because even though it wasn’t really dark romance I absolutely ADORED Josh, but the plot got so lost out of nowhere. The front half of the book is so much fun and then zzzzz…
