Readers can also talk about what is good or bad in stories. But since this thread is specifically about recommendations I guess that you have a point... Well, at this point I'm sure that there are some authors reading this too, so let's say that that was for them.

I did read a good chunk of "sister of a goddess" some time ago. The culture portrayed there made me feel extremely uncomfortable, but the MC (and by extension, the story) considered that whole situation to be as messed up as it actually was, and that's the most important part. I think I tend to...

What are you even talking about? No, seriously, I'm genuinely confused, why are you talking about anti-vaxxers in response to me saying that there's a trope I don't like?

I don't even know why I bother trying to have an honest discussion...

When it's a sapient being it's called a slave, not a pet. I really hate the double standards that are always present when it comes to humans and every other race in fantasy. If there's a story about a world where humans look down on some other race and treat them as pets, it's always treated by...

If you want to come up with your own stuff, here are a few formulas you can use: -Multiple animals merged together (A monster with the lower body of a horse, the upper body of a shark and a snake as its tail) -Animated inanimate object (A living armor/book/candelabra) -Creature that's made of...

Reincarnation into another world is not something that can ever truly become an overused cliche as long as the one writing it makes an effort to come up with something new, there are simply way too many ways to do it. Just the fact that someone is reincarnated does not say anything about what...

I think that I'm an intuitive plotter, but I have not written down any notes, everything is in my head (which might be a mistake). It's a bit complicated because I also have a lot of gaps in my planned story where I don't know how I will get from one event to the next so when I get there I need...
