Recommendations Anyone have a book I can get hyped for?

[pangmida]

Basically, when I get into a book (or any form of media), I get really excited about it and start making lots of comments. Ever since I learned how to use the multiquote function on SH, I’ve been spamming people’s books with long comments, highlighting whatever little thing I liked, found funny, crashed out at, have questions or theories over, etc. (you can check my SH profile for examples lol). It’s like when you annotate a physical book with random notes, highlights, or comments. Also I assumed that authors love comments, sometimes even more than likes (I know I do) because it shows you’re really engaging with their hard work, so I comment whenever I can. Sometimes if I *really* like it I’ll draw fan art, too (anything to procrastinate from my own work).

Does anyone have a book they think I could get really into and don’t mind some comment “spamming” on almost every chapter? I’m just a simple girl, I like cute/soft romance, comedy, or drama, but I also love action, fantasy, horror, etc. and honestly any genre. Character-focused stories are the best. Although I am picky with what I think is worth binging. The only thing I probably won’t make comments on is pure smut, not because I don’t like smut (how can a fanfiction reader not), but because I’m shy. ? Explicit content included in a book is fine, just books centered around smut and erotica gets me a little embarrassed hehe.

Edit: before anyone asks, this isn't a story feedback thread, I won't be giving any constructive criticisms for books recommended here. I'm honestly a terrible objective reader (and any media enjoyer) because anything I like gets a mental 5 star rating from me. My favorite movie is whatever last movie I watched all the way. But that's also why I could get picky. I believe if I'm reading these books for free, then there's no reason to say anything "bad" publicly (unless I'm forced to), and I'm just going to turn off my brain and get immersed like an NPC audience. The worst "review" I'll leave is just closing the book and silently walking away.

P.S. I am way more likely to keep commenting if you respond to my comments! Just so I don’t feel like I’m screaming into the void. Let’s be mutually engaging! :)

Mine’s a drama–horror story with a reverse “travel to another world” twist. It’s very character-focused and starts off at a slower pace to build atmosphere and depth. There’s no explicit sexual content (none at all, really), though there are some implied moments and subtle romantic elements later on.

I just wrapped up the first act, and the full story will probably land around 70–80k words. Maybe 90k if I really push it. One thing to note is that I write it with a bit of an anime-inspired style. You’ll see some familiar, grounded anime tropes (like childhood friends), but I also like to dig deeper beneath the surface and really explore my characters.

Edit: I don't know how to make my links fancy yet sorry for the copy and paste if you decide to look TvT.

Well... my story is in the middle of a rewrite, but I might as well. Free publicity and all.

Blood Rose Princess Just Wants to Live in Peace With Her Little Daughter
Genres: Action, dark fantasy, drama

Synopsis:
The world’s most feared bloody executioner, now she wants nothing more than for her daughter to laugh every morning.

Marry El Rose, known as the Blood Rose Princess, is a bloody legend. She brought down tyranny with her own hands, upheld justice through the “law of blood,” and shook the world with unmatched power.

But all that is past. The world has lost its memory. Civilisation has collapsed. And the executioner… chose to become a mother.

In a remote village, the Rose Valley, Marry lives a simple life with Caelan, a little girl who is innocent, cute, spoiled and reliable, and has no idea that her mother was once a symbol of fear. They grow flowers, tell bedtime stories, and learn to laugh in a world still full of wounds.

But peace is fragile. The past never really dies. And behind Caelan’s smile lies a secret that could change the fate of the world once again. Even so, Marry has only one simple dream:

“I don’t want to be a heroine, a redeemer, or a saviour goddess. I just want my little daughter to grow up healthy… and happy.”

This is the story of a mother who is a former justice executioner who chooses to raise her daughter, not to save the world, but to punish it.

@Eldoria is on the rise to "Rising Author" status in no time. Their work is brilliant.

 

[pangmida]

Well I didn't expect this many responses. :0

I'll slowly go through these haha. If I get hooked by your work, expect to see a flurry of comments in your alert!

 

[expentio]

Seems like I'm too late.
Although my Slime Girl saga starts with disturbing body horror into a somewhat cute relationship between the protagonists. (Basically, I could Bingo all your genre mentions)

Well, you asked attention-starved author if you could read anything they'd recommend. The outcome was expected.

I'm both seething with envy and filled with joy for them!

As far as I can tell with the little bit of time I've spent live on here, readers who comment/engage with the story are super rare and make writers happy and excited. Thank you for being a super chill and nice reader who actively engages with the work they read even if mine may not end up being on your list!

Mine is cute soft romance with quite a bit of humor! I'd love to see your comments :)
