#ya genre

[scarlethoodi]

I need some adult queer books; they don’t necessarily have to be romance (though I’m not opposed cause I love the genre) and I’m not against YA but yeah I need some recs please

Controversial opinion:

Sex is YA isn't a bad thing.

YA means Young Adult, and as a teenager, it is not for teens. If a teen reads YA, that is their choice, and they should be aware that as the genre is called Young ADULT, it is meant for adults.

Hii :)) I'm writing a fantasy ya story on ao3 called Oliver Burns, and I'd be thrilled if you checked it out since this is my first try at the fantasy genre

ngl, I'm beginning to take issue with how in conversations about anti-intellectualism almost automatically, the face of girls and women will be slapped on the problem.

#'all those tiktok girls who only like marvel films and' - why do you always say girls and women? are the guys filling opera halls instead? #'women in their mid 20s who still only read YA novels' okay sure that's an example and relevant discussions can be had #but it reminds me of the mocking tone in which people speak of 'chick-lit' to use women's interest as an indicator of lower value #while in fact women are reading more than men in EVERY single genre of fiction. Women are doing a lot of (often unpaid) labour #supporting libaries supporting theatres supporting cultural events #meanwhile there is a pretty big overlap between toxic masculinity and anti-intellectualism #(especially misogyny and homophobia) #especially when it comes to things like ballet or opera or musical or generally dance #in fact it is often the female investment in specific things that makes them less 'valuable' in general consciousness #for thousands of years the theatre was well-respected and a high form of art - and now it's a 'wife-thing' #the father who will teach his son that theatre and dance are for girls - how is that never an example for anti-intellectualism

Making Money for Teens by Phoenix Read |Book Review|

I’m always looking for reads that make me think, and this short info read definitely did that. It was full of the normal get rich slowly tips that you run into all the time if you spend any time on Pinterest, but it was the tone of the writing and the way that it allowed the information to progress through the book that made it so different from the competition. The portion of this book that I…

Seeing this a lot in the indie book market with other authors works (I browse regularly as research for work) so here’s a hot tip for everyone out there. If you pick up a book that is clearly labeled YA/NA as the genre. And you give it a 2/5 star review, and your only critique is “I couldn’t connect to it because it’s a YA book”, then you’re being an asshole. You just plummeted that author’s overall ratings, and the books overall ratings, and affected their sales... Because you knowingly bought a YA book and then didn’t like that it was a YA book. 

I’m all for leaving poor reviews if the writing is bad, the plot isn’t great, or whatever other reason you’ve got. But please, don’t buy a book that’s directed at a certain age range or a certain genre, and then leave a bad review BECAUSE IT’S WRITTEN FOR THE AGE RANGE THAT IT’S BEING MARKETED AT! 

#writeblr #i am seeing this all over the place the last few months #in large part related to those 'read from this genre' bingo challenges that have been showing up #if you buy a book that is clearly marked as being written for a YA audience and you knock it for being written for a YA audience #you're not being a good reviewer! and you're being a bad reader too #for not taking into account the context that the book is written in #!

it's sad that phillip pullman didn't get to live a couple decades earlier because he seems to want to engage with discussions of story and literature and myth that there is not much attention for nowadays

#1. he's a YA fantasy author with the standard litty disdain for genre fiction #2. i want to see him argue with c s lewis #they breathe the same air

Hey, what if Gortash saw Durge down in the colony? What if he saw and Durge recognised him? What if Durge, all bruised and broken, tried their best to approach the horrified tyrant? What if they managed to cling to his ankle, covered in blood and wounds so severe no one should be able to survive them?

And what if the tyrant simply... Took a step back when he finally met what might've been their eyes before?

What if he freed himself from their grasp? What if he simply turned around? What if he ran away from the horrors before him, refusing to acknowledge what has become of them?

What if his actions were what genuinely broke Durge? What if this single interaction was what caused their memory to truly, completely fail? What if it wasn't Orin, or him by extention, but legitimately his one wrong move that killed his beloved companion?

What then?

#this is def not the plot i have in mind #nooooooo #never #i would never put them thru that #i would never crush them like that #im actually gonna make it even worse aha #bg3 #bg3 spoilers #durgetash #bg3 durge #enver gortash #the mood continues on #i should add the tragedy tag already #told ya my roots lie within the horror genre #he had a reason #a stupid one but a reason

You can enjoy dark romantic and smutty stories, but it shouldn't be the ONLY thing you're reading.

#same goes with YA ill be real #but at least ya is a wider genre

I will say if we get a Rat Grinders side quest I think it would be a sick full circle moment for Brennan to play Kipperlily while someone else DMs. To me the rat grinders are living through a YA thriller/horror setting and I’d love to explore something like that when we’ve seen essentially a coming of age teen comedy kinda thing with the bad kids.

#maybe I’ll make my own lil dream cast #idk if any of this made sense but d20 does genres so well and in #my heart of hearts the rat grinders are living through their own version of a YA thriller/horror #dimension 20 #d20 fhjy #fantasy high junior year #fhjy

#dol #degrees of lewdity #artists on tumblr #dol comics #dol fanart #dol sydney #sydney the fallen #dol pc #mallory the rapier #eyyyy it’s sudden shift in genre time #basically in mallory’s story sydney had met him once before in a dream #in the dream he was in his demonic harpy transformation and he was holding The Spear #and burning a building I guess #I know I know romantic am I right #so when sydney met mallory for the first time (as human) sydney had been scared #but then they became friends #and then as they became lovers and sydney became corrupt #mallory went to the island to get the spear #and came back turned into a demon #but ya know sydney isn’t scared this time because he knew mallory now #the dream was still a psychological horror though #(all of this plotting is only because it took me a long time to get sydney to love my pc in-game LMAO)
