is it just me or has the quality of books have gotten so bad it’s almost comical?
don’t get me wrong i’m sure there’s a lot of great authors out there, and even some of the more recently released books are pretty good! but in reality, i can’t name a good book that came out in the past year. it’s as if all the books dominating the market are all the same repetitive cliché bullshit. personally, i don’t classify myself as a ‘romance reader’ ‘spicy reader’…
(ill be real, i read whatever grabs my attention. albeit a thriller, romance, comedy you name it.)
honestly my main issue is with the romance genre. mainly ana huang, ali hazel wood, monica murphy, and almost every single dark romance. (don’t get me even started on colleen hoover 💀 )
i’m going to save you some time and summarise what (some) people’s issue is with dark romance. (+ colleen hoover) usually it’s just uncomfortable and romanticizes disgusting shit such as r*pe, p*dophilla, gr**ming, and/ or disturbing/ extreme kinks.
1. Romanticizing fetishes/insane/creepy behavior
now onto ana huang, ali hazelwood, and monica murphy. people always say “omg men written by women” but i do not understand the hype about the men these women created?? obviously i’m not putting these talented people down whatsoever!
But..
the twisted series had the most ridiculous fucking plot but the tropes were nice, the love hypothesis felt like a fanfiction (which it actually was, so i’m not going to say anything about that) but it wasn’t exactly bad, just felt like it was a fanfiction. A million kisses in your lifetime was sorta creepy, the mmc kinda gr*ped the fmc but it was brushed off as “sexual tension” and the daddy-daughter relationship was straight creepy.
2. Repetitive stories, nearly all the same plot, characters, writing style
It’s as if all romance books are just all rewritten versions of the same plot, using the same tropes and the same personalities?
i mean the sunshine x grumpy is cute and all but GODS does the male character always have to be the dark brooding one who’s only soft for the fmc, who’s small and naive and acts like a kid?
if you’re going to use a trope atleast make it unique? make the plot, characters and the story YOURS.
It’s like literature doesn’t exist, it’s like reading straight wattpad in a book form. what happened???
3. requirement for spice/ unnecessary plot points
OH MY GOD. i’m not even blaming authors for the spice things, rather booktok and bookstagram. oh my goodness the requirement for spice in every book even when it’s main genre isnt romance is ridiculous. some people won’t read a book if it doesn’t have SPICE!? it’s ok to like it, but it’s so annoying when i see YA novels have it?
!! sex should not be in a YA novel. !!
along with the weird spice demands, it’s also another thing that sometimes there’s unnecessary plot points / scenes just to make a trope work. like having a character act out of character just to make a scene out of it.
i’m currently in a book slump because i can’t seem to find a good book to read. my expectations are so low you’d probably have to dig underground.

HEY SO A WHILE BACK I ASKED FOR FANFICTION RECOMMENDATIONS AND I THOUGHT SINCE I GOT SUCH NICE RESPONSES I MIGHT AS WELL GIVE YOU SOME OF MINE!!
Consider this part-1 which will consist of Wesper fics from a lovely author. Each of these parts probably will consist of 1 author and the works I recommend you!
(There will most likely be one part where it’s just works from authors that have 1 work related to SOC.)
MaudeAlise: A03 author
1. to plan an art heist (fluff)
Simple 1/1 chapter 5000 words and it’s a AU where Jesper, Inej and kaz plan an art heist and Wylan happens to be the hostage 🫶 it’s honestly such a cute quick read :))
2. Sharpshooter’s back, baby! (Fluff, angst, smut 👍)
ALERNATIVE AU WHERE JESPER AND WYLAN ARE TENNIS PLAYERS AND SUDDENLY WYLAN DISAPPEARS AND THEY MEET AT A DAYCARE AFTER 7 YEARS
17/17 chapters and completed (please read this pls)
3. the handmaid (explicit content, fluff, lil angst?)
AU where Jesper acts as wylans handmaid, and tries to convince wylan to marry some merchant and may or may not have fallen in love with wylan.
11/11 chapters completed fun read 🤭
4. the nine day kiss ban (fluff, implied sexual content, light angst)
Book-Verse, snapshots of the first 9 days after the auction. Kisses are banned temporarily 😱
1/1 chapters completed and 9000 words :))
5.flower dictionary for exes (mostly angst, eventual fluff, no smut)
Jesper and Wylan break up— miscommunicate and makeup and some talking and references to flowers which I think is a nice part of the fic because I’ve never read anything like this (also kuwei is in this and he’s friends with wylan <3)
5/5 chapters completed 51,000 words

Just imagine Will straight up dying on a battlefield and Nico’s holding his body, surrounded by will’s siblings hysterically crying and then Hades just summoning up from the ground and throws a soul into Will’s impaled body and pinched the bridge of his nose and says some bullshit like,
“Nico, I know that you have some trouble with time management due to the River Lethe dip and Lotus casino, but for the last time. We scheduled a date a month later for dinner. Even Apollo cleared his schedule for this dinner, im not going to tolerate your boyfriend just dying inconsiderately? That’s a horrible way to meet a future father-in-law! Trust me, Demeter is still salty about the marriage.”
Dead silence and Nico is just looking at his father horrified, and in a incapacitated state of pure shock, fear and emotions. AND WILL SOLACE JUST SMACKS HIS LIPS AND IS LIKE “Damn I’m thirsty.”
