    me personally, i just searched on spotify: reading music and it’s just basically instrumental music. for me, it helps get more into the world of the book im reading and drown out background noise that could distract me. but yea the playlists in books would definitely distract me

    • @ll2323

      I do instrumentals too. Dark Noir ambient music goes so well with some of the scenes.

    OMG, Haunting Adeline is an intensely spicy read, so make sure you’re comfortable with its themes, as it delves into sex trade and has some very dark, dominating elements, something I personally enjoy if that’s your taste. The storyline is captivating, and I’m eagerly anticipating the rest of the series because I need to know what happens next! Haunting Adeline is edging close to being my favorite book of the year. For 2024, though, keep an eye out for Sex God: Uriel and Den of Vipers, they’re my top three picks!

    Respect your opinion. Right now there seems to be a huge trend of smut books blowing up...and I read horror. So when my kindle recommended this read to me...I was intrigued but there was just too much.... too much creamed in with a odd pacing. I felt alot could have been cut out.

    Well frankly speaking, dark romance is not similar to romance. Romance is a literal attraction but we forget the dark part here. And you kinda need to read part 2 to get the whole romance part together.

    @9:03 I actually love a good steamy spice scene on paper but also need a lot of plot to substantiate it ….books with zero plot and all smut seem pointless to me, just watch porn if that’s what someone wants 😂 I’m also here for the spooky haunted vibes in this book but the second half really dragged …I still gave it 4 stars and will read hunting mainly because I feel I have to now 😂

    I just wanna know why people read a book that they already know they would not like? Like did you all read the trigger warnings ? You were ok with it and started reading it and then just suddenly hate the book for a thing that you already knew it would happen? I think you all need help actually not the people honestly liking it

It’s ok if you didn’t like it. At least you were honest about it and conscious enough to understand that you put yourself in that situation
