Monday, 8 August 2016 21:33Trying to get into romance novels is always such a pain because I am hilariously picky about romantic arcs and romance novels rely on such specific assumptions and explanations. Once you're a reader deep in the genre certain things just become invisible to you. Also, I don't always know what search terms I should be using.
Also, I'm utterly apathetic to contemporary romance. If I'm gonna be reading a romance, there better be a fucking robot or unicorn or something, or at least people being English a while ago. Not like the contemporaries are meaningfully "people like me", and that's not what I look for in fiction, anyway. Identification, I mean.
I'm always looking for the ice queen heroines but they seem to be hiding.
