You know what ruined Crescent City? The excessive & grimey amount of times someone’s holes were plugged and the lack of character development & connection & world building.

Why is anyone picking up a FANTASY book (romance or not) and being annoyed at the FANTASTICAL WORLD BUILDING!? Just pick up any other genre omg.

I would rather they HATE each other for 2 to almost 3 books in the beginning, instead of having them SPLIT for 2 whole dang books towards the end of the series

“How spicy is it?” is a question that HURTS me when talking about a large fantasy series or really any book in general. I love spice, I think it’s a great expression and can be a great way to truly be intimate with a character, but it does the author an injustice to ONLY focus on spice. There’s 400+ pages of so much more content that is worth reading/enjoying.

What's funny is I've found that I'll actually skim spicy scenes when they're too frequent, because I'm trying to get to the next big part of the plot... like, I want to know what happens next. We get it, you love each other...stop fucking so much and find out who the bad guy is damn it. I love some good spice but I need a good plot or I'll DNF

Without world building and deep character development, it’s a regular romance.

I WANT to be confused!!! this dopamine addiction in readers is causing these authors to mass produce copy and paste books that are not unique or deep enough.

I hate the “but is it spicy?” questions! I like spice, but I need PLOT, ACTION, WORLD BUILDING, MYSTERY! Lol I’ve been reading more YA lately because I can’t just do spice spice spice. Ugh. Honestly, I’ve found myself literally skipping spice scenes in so many books lately because it’s just a lot of “filler” (pun intended I guess)

For me it’s when people pick up a romantasy book and complain about the fantasy elements. Like dude, there’s world and lore building
