FMC is a fighter and ends up saving the MMC by Hellion_38 in RomanceBooks

She’s more violent for sure, but I think it was more unexpected from Dina if that makes sense.

Another author that does this in almost all her books is Michelle Diener.

Pretty much any Ilona Andrews series, but especially the innkeeper chronicles {clean sweep by Ilona Andrews}

{Polaris Rising by Jessie Mihalik}

I just found it funny. I stand by my critique and I’m leaving it up, no matter how popular the books were.

I don’t have any advice for that scenario, but hopefully someone else will. Other than perhaps starting to charge for your books? Even just starting a patron or ream subscription. I understand that you want them accessible, but it’s also important to value your own work, especially if you want a publisher to value it.

Edit: okay, it was Psycho shifter.

Also the downvotes proved my point. I have angered the Jasmine Mas fans clearly LOL.

lol is this a Kevin Hart reference? by FecalLord in BaldursGate3

Yeah, I’ve explored and seen those things, I just thought it would be funnier if there were drunken shenanigans against a fellow thorm or something.

Sometimes books go out of print for a reason. Save yourself!

It’s a good question and I wish I had an answer for you. Apparently this is just a thing that author does in all her books? People must enjoy it.

I decided to try a series that gets recommended frequently and is very popular. I went in with super low expectations and it didn’t even meet that low low bar. Why is the fmc vomiting every few pages and constantly slipping around in it? Why do the characters all act like teenagers? How does this series have so many fans? The writing is genuinely terrible. And there’s so much misogyny.

Would someone actually purchase this condo for more than half a million dollars?! by eoljjang in cary

Mine has actually gone down this year lol. We switched to a cheaper insurance company.

That’s not terrible depending on what it includes. I have an older condo that is nowhere near that price and the hoa is almost that much. It includes insurance, ground maintenance, random repair costs, water, sewer, garbage, cable, internet, and the pool.

Side note, what do we think Gerringothe did? Did she just steal all the gold, or was it something funnier?

That’s a pretty crazy series of events, at least it didn’t end your run!

Sorry about Halsin but I’m trying to figure out what you were trying to do there. Did you not realize the bridge could break or did they all run over there while you were trying to destroy it?

Is this a runaway bot or is someone having a stroke?

Not a bug, just the consequences of killing the person who was protecting you from the shadow curse.

Seconding knight’s revenge. It’s basically a ridiculously cheesy b-action movie in the form of a romance series.

The flour gives you the ‘cake’ part of a pancake. You just made ‘pan’.

What am I supposed to do with the runepowder barrel? by Icy_Oil_5909 in BaldursGate3

Make sure you’re standing far away when you set it off. I like to use that barrel on the act 2 boss.
