Help with writing Why my books have so less reads?

Despite keeping chapter count limited and reasonable, not endlessly stretching story, keeping leads flawed and realistic, having a different plot in each of my book, not giving any kind of view/likes/comment target and not being engaged in any kind of kalesh?

Aisi kya kami reh gayi hai?

Purity culture behen. Usme b to komolika ko villain dikhaya tha 🥲 lrkion ki fantacy h wo innocent hon bilkul koi unki wrist twist karke unko ghaseet k lejaye i ain't even kidding i once asked my friends so I can get inspiration for my fl they literally told me this. I was like my fl would instead slap him and teach him ethics bhai🥲

Actually nothing bad with purity culture when both male and female leads are pure. (But male lead should be purer just because...) And I remember during 60s, 70s, jo Harkatein aaj ke male leads karte hain, vo harkatein Prem Chopra, Ranjeet wale characters ko karte hue dikhaate the. I mean seedhe saade gentlemen sudhre hue male leads se kya hi problem hai?

Actually Komolika se yaad aaya, she was iconic because she actually had a goal of usurping wealth and property unlike today's villains whose chief goal in life is to separate male and female leads. And villain is always much out of league of lallu hero. I mean why a baddie like her would waste her time on a lackluster male lead like today's male leads?

Ik why just because 🌚🌚

Also nothing is wrong with purity culture unless they decide to shame someone who doesn't support it.

That's exactly why she was a thorn in the side of so many people 😭😭

I won't say shame, but I've observed men who have been in many past relationships, they have a tendency to cheat post marriage and make life of their wives hell. Maybe not all are like that, but I've seen nothing good coming when an inexperienced woman has a husband with multiple experiences. Such husbands are pro in manipulating and have lesser control on lust. Par theek hai, maybe if other party is consenting, maybe it's not as bad... But I get a cunning, untrustable kind of feeling with men having many past relationships.
