Author I know this is a “dark suspense romance” apparently but if you make the sapphic one a stalker romance I will lose my fucking mind

if you do this with the only sapphic one you've written I’m gonna call you lesbophobic

The same way it was biphobic to make Reed a slut when he seems to be the only bisexual character

Look man I know dating apps have weirdos on them but I just do not believe there's this many cis men pretending to be women to catfish lesbians

Most of them just contact you anyways and say insane shit.

Like cis men just don't really bother pretending to be women to be predatory weirdos towards women. A lot of them just do it with their whole face and government name

I think my issue with this and other "dark romances" is that all of the weird fucked up shit gets treated as So Normal

Like sure they SAY it's fucked up but no one ever actually ACTS like it is

Every single time it just reads like the author went “oh right gotta remind the readers they have adhd” which

If you've written an adhd character in a way where they have adhd you shouldn't have to remind me every five minutes in some kind of annoying way

So either you have no confidence in your reader’s ability to pick up on subtext or you didn't write characters with adhd

Another extremely hamfisted attempt to convince me that the Reed and Wren are an AuDHD couple when they both read literally so allistic and not adhd that it's PAINFUL

The author is so clearly Too On TikTok

I will hand it to the author, this one does actually fall into the Dark Romance subgenre unlike the first two which were more just

Regular romances but also The Mafia is there or The Characters Have Trauma and also a City Counselor is A Violent Abusive Weirdo

This is so gross is the problem

Like the first two were goofy and dumb but this one is genuinely just homophobic

I'm gonna be so real man

Making the bi character a slut in the last one and then making the sapphic book a stalker romance?

It's giving biphobia and homophobia actually

Author I cannot emphasize enough how much the dopamine from drugs like cocaine and heroin is very much real dopamine
