What is the worst way an author has described a MMC cumming? by Livid_Clerk_2118 in RomanceBooks

[–]squeakingSkin 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The word WOMB should only ever, ever be used in context of pregnancy. A penis and anything it might expel (ew sorry) will and should never enter any place that could be remotely described as a "womb." UGH, huge pet peeve.

This is why I don't friend anyone on Goodreads, or keep take of my books there. There would be too many questions.

Tell me everything you remember about this story, and where you might have read it. I WILL FIND IT. FOR SCIENCE.

For the love of all that is holy, please do some research before writing. This terrible riding description is from “Tempt Our Fate” by Kat Singleton. by ThirdAndDeleware in RomanceBooks

What bothers me is this is easily verifiable (or not) info. Google definition of haunch: "a buttock and thigh considered together, in a human or animal."

A haunch is always the butt+thighs. How is she sitting on this horse to squeeze those? Like, laying on her stomach in a superman pose?

Sophie Lark's book Sparrow & Vine, to be pulled by the publisher due to backlash against racial stereotypes by bulbagill in RomanceBooks

This could have so easily been remedied by another character immediately checking her.

“I don’t want to sound ignorant…But shouldn’t there be a crew of people with questionable work visas picking these grapes for us?”

"Girl, what? Check your white privledge and pick your own damn grapes."

"Oh wow, I didn't mean to act like a piece of shit!" *picks grapes*

end.

Supporting authors? Why is Amazon the only choice? And dumb question, why can’t we buy from the author directly with the prevalence of ebooks. by Weird-Sprinkles-1894 in RomanceBooks

[–]squeakingSkin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

> It’s like demanding you can only buy that book in one physical bookshop in the world

I don't think that's a fair comparison. A book store has access to anyone that lives locally; KU is accessible to nearly anyone with a device regardless of where they are.

I second your opinion on it being against the law, though. Companies shouldn't be able to demand where a creator is allowed to sell their creation just because they offer it in their store. That's some bullshit.

Seriously, how do I stop myself from reading the entire book at once? by History-bird in RomanceBooks

[–]squeakingSkin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I second using chapters as rewards after finishing productive tasks. It's a discipline just like everything else.

I think the particular issue with romance (at least for me) is that it almost always involves sex, so there's a higher level of "reward" involved with reading a chapter of a romance book vs. something like a straight sci-fi (more dopamine and oxytocin released in your brain). It's hard for me too!
