What are your favourite book characters who are sexy / attractive / compelling / subjects of romantic desire, and who don't conform to stereotypical beauty norms? What authors write body diversity really well?

I miss being onhere. It is helping, to have stepped back. Bu I definitely miss it.

[Corey Alexander-on hiatus @TGStoneButch]

@jclewisupdate Yeah, it sounds like our reading habits were similar. I'm sorry we are in the same boat. :(

I thought I knew what a reading slump could be like for me, but July has been a more intense slump than I've ever experienced. I cannot focus on reading. I read 6 books in July.
3 audiobook rereads
1 novelette reread
2 new to me romance novels
-so many attempts that lost steam

[Corey Alexander-on hiatus @TGStoneButch]

@Aqueda_Veronica Yeah, I know I'm not alone in dealing with a slump. This is definitely the most persistent of any I've experienced. :/

@genderjumper I loved This is How You Lose the Time War!

I find slumps really hard because I think of myself as a voracious reader, and its like I've lost part of myself.

[Victor LaValle @victorlavalle]

I’ve seen some writers wondering if their work matters in this current situation.

I know I need good books and stories even more these days.

So, yes, it matters.

Please keep writing.

@HFeliciaG It almost seems inevitable that this would happen? Unless the author pushed back against that marketing strategy hard.
