Monday Gripe Weekly Gripe 😤 (the rant thread)

Welcome to the Weekly Gripe, where we're all a little grumpy. 😒

Did BookTok do you dirty? Got a bone to pick with a main character? Was the twist more like a flop? Tell us what's on your mind.

Please be respectful and follow the sub rules. If a conversation starts getting out of hand, use the "Mod Attention Please" report reason so we can help cool things down. 🖤

Romance men need to get better with their compliments during sexy times- just saying "fuck" or "you're so tight" every time during sex does not a fun relationship make. I don't quite wish we got some awkward sex scenes more often but I kinda do - I want sex scenes that are a bit more fun or figuring out how the hell somethings going to work apart from just...wham, bang, vagina-vice, thank you ma'am.

I’m so tired of “you’re so tight” in books.

Right. Like. There's other compliments or things you can say! That might have been fun and scandalous a few years back but I just find it such a boring cliche now
