My least favorite trend is the "I love him even tho he's kinda shady because he's just so hot." Oh, his arms, oh his shoulders....he maybe killed my sister, but, oh, his beautifully distrusting eyes...

We need to separate the Fantasy-Romance subgenre as its own thing. Call that Romantasy.

The cruel Prince is the only fae book I like because how they are actually fae-like and not just extra horny immortal people with wings.

Me: hoping to write a dark fae story and sweating as I wonder if thatās become overdone
1:54 : āI donāt wanna see them fall in love, I wanna see them destroy peopleā
Me: sigh of relief

The thing that bothers me, and has for awhile, is how trope-heavy YA is. The plot, the writing, the worldbuilding, the character-building, everything comes secondary to "enemies to lovers," "grumpy vs. sunshine," "but there was only one bed," "love triangle" etc. YA fantasy gets a bad rap, which is a shame because there's some great stuff out there. I just wish tropes weren't quite as important as they seem to be.

One author who writes Faeries very well is Holly Black. She makes them creepy and dark tricksters who sadistically treat humans as toys and yes eat them. Mermaids/siren stories are really cool too when they are portrayed as monsters.

This speaks to me from like ten years ago. I remember going into a bookstore and reading all the YA fantasy blurbs. It was like a Mad Lib.
"SPICY FEMALE TEEN PROTAGONIST" goes to "FANTASY LOCATION" and meets "HOT FANTASY GUY". Will blank be able to blank the blank?
I walked out without buying anything. I wasn't writing that kind of stuff and despaired for about ten years. Hearing everybody's tired of it is good to hear.

Iām kind of sick of having an entirely āmorally grayā cast. Believe me, books like Six Of Crows and Cruel Prince handle it wonderfully, but Iām so sick of everyone being a horrible person. Thatās what I appreciated so much about Realmbreaker. Yeah you had a few morally gray character (Mainly Sorasa). But watching characters like Dom and Andrey was nice because I missed idealistic good people. Weāre so obsessed with darkness and angst and I donāt entirely get the hype anymore.

I think that some of the āsmut in YAā books come from books that arenāt really YA being called YA because they have similar pacing and tropes to YA books. Also SMJ is everywhere.

I am all for a designated āfantasy romanceā genre to emerge. I am one of those girlies that needs more than just a romance, but often I get tired of just fantasy. Depending on my mood, I will verge deeper into fantasy or romance sometimes, but āfantasy romanceā is definitely my comfort place/home base/happy place

If we're going to have really long titles in fantasy, I'd much rather they follow the Japanese Light Novel format and tell you what the book's actually about instead of being just a string of pretty but meaningless nouns

It's the same thing that happened with Twilight and vampires. Once that became insanely popular, a lot of copycat authors with YA vampires appeared and the industry followed suit-until it didn't anymore and the fad faded away.

I also believe the problem with smut in ya is down to stores not acknowledging that new adult is now a popular genre and just lumping these books in with young adult.

I feel like Fae are the new vampires. Is Sarah J Maas written as YA or marketed as YA? Sometimes it seems like the author has one view of her audience and the marketing team has another. I'm just curious.

I actually like fae and I hate SJM books. I feel she ruined fae for a lot of people while wildly misrepresenting them. She thinks they are just sexy elves when they suppose to be cruel and one of my favorite thing about the fae is that they can't lie so they have to be very creative and it just doesn't exist in her books.

You haven't seen truly long titles until you've gone down the isekai light novel rabbit hole. "I'm a Behemoth, an S-Ranked Monster, but Mistaken for a Cat, I Live as an Elf Girl's Pet" - now that's a proper long title.

I'm just tired of fantasy romance being mixed into the regular fantasy/sci-fi section. It's like this at my favorite local bookstore, so it's hard to tell if you're going to get a fantasy book or a romance book with 10% fantasy lol.

I think Sarah J. Maas just turned Fae into a reskinned version of Fanfiction Werewolves.

I once saw someone say that āa bowl of Mac and cheeseā fits the āa BLANK of BLANK and BLANKā pattern and now thatās all I can think of when I hear those titles
