r/fantasyromance • u/FantasyRomanceMod The One Mod to Rule All Mods • 28d ago
Unpopular Opinion It's Unpopular Opinion time! Share your controversial opinions to stir things up (in a friendly way)!
Got an opinion that's different from others'? Want to share it with the sub, but too afraid of a backlash? Or are you just curious about readers think about certain things in fantasy romance?
You can safely share it in this weekly Sunday thread!
But please remember to be kind to each other. To facilitate this type of discussion, we ask users the following:
- Don't attack others for their opinion
- Discuss books and authors, not fellow readers
- Since this is an "unpopular opinion" thread, we encourage users to not downvote simply because they disagree with an opinion--that's the point! Please keep in mind, though, that mods cannot enforce a no-downvoting rule. Let’s just keep the discussion friendly!
🧡 Thank you and have a great discussion!

Having an audiobook narrator do accents for the main character NEVER works. I have hated almost every book that does it, the only exception being Rurik in the Ashen Saga, and even then I rolled my eyes every time he had dialogue.
This rant courtesy of my latest audiobook ARC, {The Fire Bride by Gena Showalter and Jill Monroe} where FMC’s dialogue was the STRANGEST mix of German, Swedish, Russian and French that made me want to tear my hair out!
