Fuck you I've been here before you were old enough to read probably and I stand by it, everything else is just one anon infinitely bumping their own thread with the same three poorly drawn deviantart images that have been posted ad nauseum since 2012 and no actual discussion.

>>4325783
This.

Been here since 2005, not surprised you're the kind of anon to gloat over how bothered you are by the mere existence of image dumps on an image board despite there being plenty of discussions

Saw this on a lesfic review site and I just ran into some of the worst dialogue I've ever read.

>“Fire!” exclaimed Mardis Gras hair.

>“No cap!” added the young Black woman, who snatched the book out of her companion’s hand to read the blurb.

>I beamed, proud I could pull off such a tough assignment as that book had been. “Where are y’all from?” I asked.

>“Oh, I’m Demi, from N’awlins, and you’re my all-time favorite author. Hey, one of your MCs in this one is a POC like me!” Her effervesce spilled out as her feet did a rendition of the Snoopy dance.

You can't fool me into thinking this isn't a parody story anon.

How is "This is How You Lose the Time War"?
Might buy it tomorrow if it isn't shit.

Any novels where cute mormons/religious bishes get perverted?
Or even a sweet but sacrilegious romance?
Yeah, i just watched Heretic.

>>4327695
It's good.

>>4327760
Oh and i also watched You Can Live Forever, it was kino but the ending was...

>>4327762
Alright. If it turns out to be shit or have bisluts in it, I will track you down and personally beat your ass.

>>4327784
Oh dear

>>4326345
I liked In the Long Run by Haley Cass

>>4327695
It's good but it has a surprise het part. The sci-fi elements are weaker than the prose but it's still enjoyable just for the flowery language. It has one of the strongest opening paragraphs I've seen

>>4327844
Okay, thank you for actually giving valuable information, I know not to get it now.

>>4327806
Prepare for an ass beating in approximately 3 to 5 business days, motherfucker. Can't trust /u/ for shit too many freaks here have a bislut fetish.

>>4327760
Taking Flight by Siera Maley is kinda like that, but not really. LI is religious, repressed gay.

>>4328074
Will check, thanks anon.

>>4327438
This is not real.

>>4327844

Blue gets married and has a child as part of a spy mission iirc

>>4328887
They simply can't help themselves...can't Them?

Any half-sisters or even sisters novels running around?
If they have sexy stuff happening even better

>>4328956
into the forest by jean hegland.
it's a miserable read though. het rape and all. proceed at your own risk. there's also a movie adaptation but I heard it skipped the relationship between the sisters ; didn't watch it so idk.

also wtf is that fucking 15 minutes timer to post now ? I swear this shithole turns shittier every year

>>4329375
NTA. How good is the relationship in the book? I liked the movie for its post-apocalypse vibes but there was nothing going on between the sisters.

Buy a 4chan pass or wait 15 minutes. No idea what is going on. Let's hope it is temporary.

>>4329413
>>4329375
15 minute timer is a new anti-spam measure tourist san tachi. just wait the 15 minutes or verify your email if you want hiroshimoot to sell your information to recoup the losses on his horrible investment.

The 15 minutes wait is only if you're posting for the first time or if you cleared your cache and cookies. After you make your first post it doesn't apply anymore.

Give me lesbian punks

>>4329413
yeah I'm not surprised they didn't have the balls to put it in the movie.

I read it a few years ago so I can't recall precisely, but I do remember not expecting it. like, you see them bonding here and there over little things (like the ballerina shoes) and sometimes having a bit of a fight, but it feels natural for two sisters going through extreme shit. and then things ramp up pretty quickly : MC becomes kinda overprotective of her sister after the rape and they end up fucking. there's a bit of bs drama after that when the baby is born (like some parenting/jealousy thingy) and the book ends with the sisters leaving the house to live in the forest together with the baby..

I think most of it happens in the last third/last quarter of the book but again it's been a while. YMMV, I didn't really enjoy it because the story felt very miserable, but hey to each their own.

>>4329719
Thanks, for the info. That is good enough for me, I can't be picky when it comes to f/f post-apocalypse stories. I am looking for inspiration in this setting and I know the miserable parts from the movie already, so I will give the book a chance.

>>4329757
>That is good enough for me
The saddest post of the week

>>4329770
It is sad indeed, but what can I do? If you have something better, without het shit please share. I will gladly read it.

>>4329774
Sorry, I've got nothing

>>4329770
like I said, to each their own. the saddest thing is that we were already starving for quality content 10 years ago, and every time I come back to these threads I don't feel like much has changed. except for fucking captchas apparently.

>>4329757
well now that you mention f/f post-ap there's a book called hearing red in my backlog. apparently it's about two girls running away in a zombie apocalypse. haven't read it yet though so can't vouch for it.

>>4329719
I remember that fucking flick and remember the discourse of leaving the worst stuff of the novel but nixing the lesbian incest...
But seriously is that the only mainstream novel with sisterly incest?
Because you can't throw a stone at some parts of the mainstream book community without hiting some straight incest of any flavour...

>>4329847
Sharp Objects ALMOST goes there...its het and chicklitedge but i dug it.
Watch the show before to see if you can invest in it, that said the show ''obscures'' some really terrible rape that happened, which is kinda the point in way...obscuring it to show how the MC deals with trauma thou

>>4329839
>hearing red
from the reviews I've skimmed, it sounds like you'll like this book if you like The Walking Dead.

I liked The Burning Kingdom series

>>4330274
oh thanks this made me look it up again and i didn't realize the last book released recently, i'll read it now. i liked the first two as well so looking forward to it

>>4330274
How much Indian crap does this thing have? Like their clothes, gods, eating with dirty hands...

I desperately need a series as good as the locked tomb. Hoping someone here has some recs. I can tolerate het as long as it doesn't involve the mc otherwise I will avoid it like the plague

>>4330925
There's nothing that compares, I've been searching for years at this point. It's the pinnacle of the lesbian sff genre and nothing else comes close. I desperately want to like another book as much as Harrow but I haven't found it yet.
I read Traitor Baru cause nerds on here kept saying it's better and it was entertaining enough but the quality is not even in the same ballpark. The other big one is Priory which was decent but also kind of generic and with way too many uninteresting side storylines (the prequel was better but still not up to par).

>>4330852
I had to give up on the first book after one chapter because it wasn't very well written and all I could think about was SIRS

don't read this, it's trash

>>4331536
I remember wanting to enjoy this but I found the main characters family dynamic so weird I ended up dropping it. The social climbing aspect was really offputting to me.

>>4331536
I figured as much from the cover.

Chloe Slate - Prey for Me
Short (kinda) erotic romance about a young woman who feels she doesn't deserve better, and a co-worker belittling her who is secretly a demon.

... given the "dark romance" tag and the fact that she's trying to date a demon I'd have expected something a bit more messed up, but it's very "modern" in that it's quite careful about demonic consent and such. Nonetheless, there's a bit of degradation play and such.

Could have been better. Too fluffy. But fun idea.

GB Baldassari - Amor Fati
I thought this was Brazilian, which would have been interesting, and it is, but only in the sense that's it written by a Brazilian couple. It's set in Canada. Meh.

Clunky romance about a young woman who had to give her child away. One day that child seeks her out, and now she's in contact with the girl's adoptive mother. Romance develops from there. Not too much else going on. Characters are nice enough; it's just very generic in lots of ways.

Writing is also notably translated. Not necessarily awful, but just not quite there.

Nyri Bakkalian - Confluence
You know when people go on about "show, don't tell" and you sorta roll your eyes because, obviously, and who doesn't know by now ... ?

Well.

Taking place in a post-catastrophe Japan, this is about a couple in which one has turned herself into a sorta "cybersoldier" (called "doll"/sword) and her "wielder" (and wife). The concept is allegedly a sorta D/s relationship between human and doll, and they do talk a lot about that.

Talk about it being the key thing here. Don't expect to actually encounter any instance in it being very relevant, or "shown". How a doll is actually different from a human, or why such an arrangement is preferable in that context ... who the fuck knows. It's not like the novel does anything with it.

What little plot there is is by extra characters showing up and just having mysteriously obtained necessary information. We don't know how, we certainly don't see how. It's just there. Then the scene is "cut" and ... everyone talks or thinks about it.

As an additional treat, every Japanese dialogue is first written in Japanese. And then in English. So have fun scrolling through 50% of the dialogues, or reading everything twice, whichever you prefer.

The idea is nice. But the entire thing is so bogged down it just achieves nothing. Read a Machine Mandate novel to see how it's done right.

High school book with poorly drawn cartoon woman on the cover is bad, shocking news.
