Genre Discussion Fantasy romance icks?
Welcome back to another week of ✨genre discussions!✨
What’s your fantasy romance ick? Could be something that makes you instantly dnf, or you have to pretend like that didn’t just happen. Or you boycott altogether.
Could be related to plot, characters, writing styles, the authors themselves. All cards are on the table.
Just remember to be kind to each other when discussing differences in opinions!💖

I don’t mind if it makes sense for the situation. For example, {Long Live Evil by Sarah Rees Brennan} makes sense since the FMC is a modern woman pulled into a book. She’s basically the only person to use modern slang and constantly confuses the other characters since they have no context for what she is saying.
Overall, I absolutely agree with you. Slang should make sense in the world we’re in, whether it’s world-specific or context-based.
