(Melissa de la Cruz's books just tend to be mediocre at best…)
(ha well. I hadn't read any of her books before and I have Major Regrets)
(I liked Alex and Eliza well enough, but I dnf'd her other book that I tried. I saw the blurb for The Queen's Assassin and noped right out of there.)
(yeah…I was at the library, went "oh this looks interesting" and then…i read it…and i called every single major "plot twist" in like the first few pages)

Blue Bloods was an interesting series…. until–well actually I havent finished it
Didn't she just….not finish one series?
Who, de la Cruz? Yeah, there was a trilogy where she only wrote the first book and then cancelled the series. It really pissed people off.
One of her books has a 2.66 rating on Goodreads which is not ideal.
OOF. Which one?
Pride And Prejudice And Mistletoe.
Ah. that's gross.
in other news I borrowed the new SJM book today and I don't know how to feel about that. I haven't started it yet, but we'll see
It's dummy thicc

what series??
GIVE ME MURDER AND MAYHEM OR GIVE ME DEATH!
Nice.
I want more murder and mayhem in books where I'm supposed to get Murder and Mayhem!!
Oh my god literally nothing makes me more angry than being told a book is an action packed fantasy adventure story when it's actually just a romance in a cool setting.
How about give me murder and mayhem or give me a blurb that's actually accurate so that I don't get duped into reading another goddamn love triangle?

I don't remember!!! But it annoys the fuck out of mee
My friend read this book about a gay-ace guy and I haven't read it yet but can I get a hell yeah for asexual characters that have romantic attraction? I haven't seen a whole lot of ace rep yet at all, but when I do it seems like the ace character's always the "ew feelings gross" one.
What book?
I'm not sure but I'll ask them for you guys
I'm reading this cute new book called "The Gravity of Us" and I look at the reviews and all the gays and gay authors are screaming about it
Okay so the book's called Upside Down by N.R. Walker, it features a gay-ace librarian protagonist that swears probably too much
mE
(Bump)
Already in progress relationships. And not as it they’re breaking up so mc can be with someone else. And mostly untroubled relationship. Realistically having some challenges. But not Troubled™. Just. Casually being in a relationship. We need less passion and more casual romance.
^^!!!
I want characters that make me upset because I can't hug them. I'm rereading a series because nostalgia and not only do I want to hug the main character so hard but I forgot what it was like to really ship characters wowie
Laughs in "I torment my characters too much"
Y'know what? We need better weapons! More creative and detailed weapons! If the Sword of Destiny is the main plot point, at least make it SOUND cool! Give us some more weapon variety, I'm tired of everyone using swords and only swords! Where are the hammers? The pikes? The weird firearm club hybrids that were meant for royalty? Give me SOMETHING!
(I want a hot girl wielding a mace of light please)
