Iโm a dark romance reader but Iโve seen a trend of some people not allowing any type of criticism of the genre. Thatโs scary to me. If we donโt have difference of opinions it allows some vile shit to be released such KKK romances being published and expected.
I really want to read Wild Eyes by Elsie Sliver but Iโm super scared itโs going to have the trope of the women giving up her career for a man and it 2024 we are not doing that!
Iโm so torn!
I will never learn my lesson. I keep picking up/ buying books just because I like the name, cover or author and not checking tropes and reviews.
Then coming to read the and checking those things.
I know Iโm picky. I need to stop wasting my money! ๐ญ #Books
Honestly I question why some romance books are slow burn and have the first kiss at like seventy percent cause they do not have enough plot to justify it.
I like a slow burn but a justified slow burn Not a slow burn because they are trendy. #BookBooks
@ladydragonjj I want to play ๐
Iโm guessing;
Combining Nettles and Rhaena
Ariana Targ and Serena Frey
Maybe Aly Blackwood not at burning mill
Daemons traumatic sex scene with his mother.
Deffo the sigls
The whole dynamic with Rhae and Alicent - deffo meet ups
And Blood and cheese.
Mattson Tomlin on adapting HBOโs โAEGONโS CONQUESTโ from George R.R. Martinโs Fire and Blood:
โIt starts with what George has done. I've now gotten to spend quite a bit of time with him, and there have been a lot of pinch-me moments of just kind of going through fire and blood, highlighting passages, and asking him, What did this mean? What is this? What I think it is.โ
โFor me, it's about making sure that I respect George and I respect the text. And then also, it still has to be a dramatic story. Those characters have to go on a journey; they have to change; they have to go from a beginning to a middle to an end.โ

Some of you need to put some more respect on Meleys name!
I will have no disrespected!
She bodied Sunfyre and was kicking vhagars ass before that sneak attack!
MELEYS THE RED QUEEN. You are a legend and a icon.
Anyone else not trust book reviews from romance content creators who are like best friends with different authors.
Like when I see a romance content creator become friends with a popular author, I will never again trust their reviews.
Or am I just mean.
Blake Lively is not a good person. But can we also recognise that is Justin Baldoni really wanted to use a book with the theme of DV he chose one of the worst books to do it off. The book was popular and would make money. Not that it would really dissect the theme of DV.
Awareness.
We need not to put him on a pedestal and I know that I have had to do this.
This whole situation and the production of this film has been explorative from the beginning.
End rant.
