Another month, another Choices Insiders
I lost a lot of interest when it turned out we're not the titular character in Hot Shot but a lowly reporter who has to wh*re out and do filthy propaganda for some hockey team. However, it has GOC MC so I'll still give it a try, albeit with low expectations.
I liked the behind-the-scenes stuff though, always cool to see what goes into creating art for the game. There seems to be a lot of 3D modelling involved in background art, which is cool. Perhaps PB could base character sprites on 3D models as well, then they wouldn't look so weird.
Surprised that PB is trying to release Blades 3 already this year, although it doesn't sound that impossible. After all, book 2 was still in pre-production less than a year before its release. I hope that they won't rush it though and take more time if needed. RWB spin-off and COP3 are not surprising as they're lower budget linear stories.
1 GOC book per 1 gender locked book is ...ooookay, it's not good but better than last year. 3 per 2 would be more in line with the better years and actually improve the situation overall. I'll probably do the next Choices stats post about GOC books.
ID2 - the main villain, the final battle, the way MC was turned into vampire and how he reacted to it were all hugely underwhelming but I still look forward to it. Urban fantasies seem to be my thing (besides sci-fi but sadly PB isn't interested). I'm curious how they'll handle the 3 different romance paths, I also want to see MC seriously struggle mentally with vampire life and I hope that whatever danger is waiting for us is more multifaceted than the boring villain in book 1. Hopefully there won't be another cheesy happy ending where regular humans and vampires suddenly become the best buddies.
ACT - it's gender locked so there goes my interest.
TDG - the name and thumbnail made me hope for something dark and gritty but based on the leaks we're once again getting involved with the quirky lives of rich people. Still, it's a GOC detective story so it shouldn't be too bad. Fingers crossed there's still going to be some gore and blood besides the fake glittery glamour.
TGOU - meh, another gender locked book. Probably THOBM but smuttier and over 3 times longer.
FR - lol I don't know why the title sounds so funny to me 🤣! Based on recent patterns, the filthy rich one is probably the LI, unless PB manages to surprise us. What is up with the fascination with billionaires anyway? What is PB trying to tell us with it? That the company is struggling and waiting for a sugar daddy to rescue it? Anyway, it's another gender locked book, so there's little to no chance I'm going to read it.
HOF - that must be the book about firefighters that PB teased sometime ago. It's good to have something involving a more down to earth life style for a change that us regular people could relate to. I just hope it's not another one of those books where only the LI is the firefighter. Or where we are another rookie falling for an older, more experienced person.

quick don’t think about bill cipher turning himself huge to pick you up and snuggle you (and having one enormous heart-eye)
don’t think about axel sharing an ice-cream-flavored kiss with you and telling you over and over that he loves you so you’ll be sure to get it memorized
don’t think about tamaki throwing flower petals and gushing about how amazing and spectacular his bf is whenever you enter a room
don’t think about dirk taking off his glasses and letting you see, just a bit, beyond the mask, just for the sake of looking into your eyes unhindered
don’t think about any of that
HEY BLUE WHAT IF I CRIED???? I hope you know this is exactly what I needed and it inspired me to do SO much art that I havent in so so so long so thank you I owe you my life.

Find A Song
about feeling distant from someone but desperately wanting to break down barriers
Jessie Reid- Hearts On Fire
'This is the first release since I split from my label earlier in the year. I wanted to put my all into it and try and evoke emotion in the listener. It's a song about feeling distant from someone but desperately wanting to break down barriers in communication and find out what they are really thinking or feeling. It's wanting to get to the heart of a person and feeling the frustration of not being able to do that'
Added to FAS Spotify playlists indie folk/country/americana and love.
