You'll even get M/M/F books recommended as 'sapphic' for some reason. Is it because the female character expresses any actual attraction to other women in the text? No, it's because the author tweeted out that she likes girls too.

Often, insofar that anything F/F actually occurs (this is not a guarantee), the relationship will have the chemistry of two dead fish lying 500 meters apart. Everything is 'yearning' and 'longing looks' and that's about it.

5) alternative to 3, there's a love triangle and the protagonist chooses the man but don't worry guys, SOOOOO sapphic!

The above scene is the most sexual F/F thing in the book btw.

no they have to give yearning looks and nothing else :(

Nvm she has no agent which does contribute to why her advances is dogshit-tier.
'We're not supposed to talk money so getting established Harlequin authors to give you details of advances is difficult' lol

Oh sorry she earns $5,100 since 15% goes to her agent (I assume she has one)

So going by what this author's saying, she sells about 20,000 copies of a title, and from that she earns a whopping $6000. This is fucking miserable dude.

$5000 advance is small press shit but this is Harlequin

Time to read an actually unhinged space horror book.

yeah though virtually none of the romantic/sexual chemistry in this book works I think, m/f or f/f, just all very flop

One POV killing another is very 'eh?' when 2 scenes later she's randomly resurrected.

The cannibalism doesn't hit much when nobody we know very well is getting eaten, pretty much everyone turned into a meal is just some rando with no speaking lines, and the king who's godawful anyway. You know? For cannibalism to be horrifying it has to happen to characters you gives a shit for
