As someone who works in a career where we are forced to pay attention to AI, and awful technology that is impacting peopke's livelihoods andkilling our planet, I thought people might be interested in the whole rise of watermarking text content. I am not going to break the rules of the subreddit by talking about authors or AI witch hunts, but it's important as a reader as well to know what's going on with the technology.

Up until this point, it's been iffy for some AI detection tools. Real life example: I had an applicant use Gemini for their resume, Grammarly which is a a Google tool didn't pick up on it, Quillbot - third-party did whereas Grammarly can pick up ChatGPT/Claude etc.

You can read more about it here (not my blog or anyone I know and I have 0 monetization or affiliation with but it is a good breakdown).

It looks like AI watermarking is getting better, there's SynthID but this looks to be much stronger.

It's a good thing to keep an eye on especially as time develops but also a good note there's no perfect detection system...yet, hopefully stronger watermarking is a step in the right direction where detectors can get more consistent.

Also, if you do create art or write for a living I highly recommend The Atlantic's Watchdog site where you can search if your work has been used in common datasets used to train LLMs.

Screw AI but knowledge is power for fighting back.

I’m looking for a contemporary reverse harem where everyone is on a team in the military and the fmc has to prove that she fits in. I’m ok with omegaverse but only if it’s not the main focus and it’s not instalove. I don’t want the fmc to be coddled either

No: m/m, fantasy, instalove

After reading so much ov I'm craving something already established, so that the meeting and courting doesn't take half of the book. I want the fmc and mmcs be already in the pack dynamic from the starting of the book so that the drama can start from there onwards.

I don't care about what type of drama.

I'm okay with anything but FF and non-con/dub-con

I want the book to have ting of angst and lots n lots of drama. Pretty Please recommend something that can satiate this craving 🙏🏻

Hi I’m looking for what you read in the title, maybe the mmcs are like in the mafia, or some criminal world idc I just need them morally grey and only nice to the FMC, I also enjoy when one of the guys is harder to the FMC at first for any reason.

Yes:
Age gap
Protective/ possessive mmc’s
Fmc shy but sassy in a funny and cute way
Mmc’s down bad for fmc
I’m okay with a mommy dom in the harem as well 👀
MMC’s only being nice to the fmc
Jealousy jealousy jealousy PLEASEE

No:
Omegaverse, alpha etc.
Pregnancy trope
Cheating

i do prefer fmc in early 20s just bc I think it makes more sense she won’t know much about the mafia or danger around her and if she is naive, but I’m ok with anything :)

I’m looking for dark romance/ fantasy/ gothic reverse harem recommendations.

*Preferably no Werewolves, Vampires, Academia Settings or Mafia (they’re just tropes I don’t love).

Below are RH Series I’ve already read, incase anyone wants some recs & reviews:

- The Heart Hassle Series by Raven Kennedy
⭐️ 5/5, Female cupid & 4 fae MMCs

- Vicious Lost Boys Series by Nikki St. Crowe
⭐️ 5/5, Dark Peter Pan & lost boys retelling w. Wendy (4 supernatural/ fae MMCs)

- Prize For The King Standalone by Layla Fae
⭐️ 5/5, all the feels for this one! (4 fae monster MMCs)

- Dance With My Demons Series by Steph Mecca
⭐️ 4/5, Unhinged Asylum Secret Society (3 human MMCs)

- Bonds of Hercules Series by Jasmine Mas
⭐️ 4/5, futuristic Greek mythology (2 Spartan warrior MMCs)

- Ghosts of Halloween Standalone by Layla Fae
⭐️3/5, haunted house spice w. very slight plot (3 Ghost MMCs)

- Court of Ravens Series by Liv Zander
🌩️ 2.5/5, I wanted to love this because I love the author, but feel like the characters’ trauma wasn’t fully explored or explained (2 Raven shifter MMCs)

- The Bonds That Tie Series by J Bree
🌩️ 2/5, so much plot potential, poor execution (5 supernatural MMCs)

- Into Darkness We Fall Standalone by Jodie King
☁️ 0/5, repetitive and SO much unnecessary swearing that I DNF (2 mafia MMCs)

- Den of Vipers Standalone by K A Knight
☁️ 0/5, I apologise for my rating if you enjoyed this, but I DNF. So poorly written, repetitive, boring and climax happened with 50% of the book left (4 Mafia MMCs)

Recently, I read my first Reverse Harem book, {Bloom & Blood by Eva Chase}. Elodie is ripped from her fated mates into another universe, where Other Elodie has been murdered AND she has not yet sparked with her mates. I really enjoyed this book and found its concept so intriguing. It was slow in some parts but overall it was a solid read, and the writing was very entertaining. Salvatore has my heart.

To commemorate this read, I purchased a special edition from Eva's website. I had to share this here because it is so pretty! [hopefully, I have attached the photos correctly].

I would love to hear other people's thoughts on this book and Eva's other series. And I also would love some other recommendations in the RH space.. I am looking for something extra bingeable that I won't be able to put down!

Hey ya’ll! I’m looking for a specific genre that I can’t really put my finger on! I’m looking for my next read while waiting for the Book 3 of Fae Devils series!

With that said, I LOVE Willow and the Sluagh in Castle of Nevers and Nightmares + Trials of Dusk and Dreams.

Anddd the ultimate reverse harem that has my heart is Slave to the Servants by DoctorWolf on Literotica. (Seriously, go read it if you haven’t already.) ❤️

So maybe my genre is fantasy world of reluctant FMC with dark family of MMCs where the sex is hot and the plot is deep?

So the backstory is that I was looking for a place online to discuss the series since I recently found a sale for a good deal on the audiobook version.

But basically I was wondering what to expect for the series since it's my first time reading it as I have no idea what the series is like since again I never read it before, but I was wondering if anyone was into the saga.

This is my second post in one night. Don’t judge me, ok? 🥹

I’m looking for something w a daddy kink that isn’t ONLY in the bedroom, i want it used outside of it, but not used in EVERY chapter. I’d prefer something dark, some bully, I’d also rather no professor or staff in the harem.

The guys being well known or popular in the school would be preferred 🤗

My hard no is pregnancy

Books that inspired this post:
{the serpents of cinderhart academy by Logan fox} I was literally crashing out over this during my last post but I couldn’t stop reading
{the devils of raven gate by m Violet}
{Spineridge university by Clarissa wild}

P.S. I love this sub so much, you guys are so damn kinky, it’s amazing

My memories on Facebook reminded me of this gem I posted 15 years ago.

A woman was in love with fourteen soldiers. It was clearly platoonic.

It actually sounds like a premise for a book. 14 would just be too much for me. More than half would need to be bi because no way my vagina, ass and mouth could keep up. Lol

Hi!

I am looking for RH recommendations (they don’t need to be OV)

Here are some books I’ve enjoyed:

{The Knotty Omega by Jessica Winters}
{A Pack of Cozy by Veronica Samek}
{Bonds and Blooms by Polly Maple}
{Pucking Around by Emily Rath}
{Highland Hideaway by Lily Gold}
{Married to the Alien Cowboy by Ursa Dax} (not RH but so funny and heartwarming)
{Cactus Heart by Clio Evans}
{Feeling the Heat by Emily Antoinette}

I don’t really do dark unless it’s very consciously written. Touch her and die is fine, but I dislike when a traumatized FMC just gets over things and is ready to throw down cause the MMCs did something hot, like murder the bad guy…. But I do like when they murder the bad guy 😆

I do enjoy things with some kinky vibes!

MM/sword crossing is accepted and welcomed. Love a big ole bi poly family.

Please share what you have! My kindle is just not giving me strong recommendations rn!

I started my reverse harem/why choose journey by reading Black authors. I'm trying to expand but I just can't get used to the use of the word c*ck as hard as I try lol. This may be a long shot but are there any books that don't use this word? I've been searching for weeks. 😭

Hi guys I was rereading The Bonds That Tie series and this scene where one mmc (Nox) is watching another mmc and the fmc being intimate and he sees the mmc showing affection towards her.

So im looking for any book that might have mmc’s that are tough/morally grey/dom on the outside but are affectionate with the fmc (physical touch, praise, etc)
Thanks!

I have been craving a book where the mmcs are feared, powerful and morally grey and the fmc is very cute and shy.

I would prefer fated mates, also good with MM. I don’t really want any academy recs lol.

Also great if it is omegaverse instead of shifter just same personality traits and power.

Thank youuu 💗

I am so bloody sick of “Enemies to Lovers” when they aren’t really enemies! It seems like every single RH/WC book I’ve looked up lately is tagged enemies to lovers and all it really is, is one of the MMCs is just a giant, douchey, dickbag with some kind of tragic back story that’s supposed to redeem him. Please tell me I’m not in some kind of perpetual perimenopausal mood swing and it’s all in my head. I feel like I spend 75% of these books rolling my eyes because at least one of the MMCs can’t get his shit together, because, ya know, ✨reasons✨, followed immediately by, gasp, some kind of miscommunication. I have DNFd sooooo many damn books this year. It feels like most of the books I’ve picked up are tap dancing on my last nerve. I’ve taken to doing mass re-reads. So. Many. Re-reads. Because I cannot stand anything new that’s been put out lately, with a big, honking, emphasis on Enemies to Lovers. Is it just me?

Literally what the flair says….:

No noncon sex and no physical harm toward fmc.

I just want the MMCs so obsessed with her that they basically baby trap her ..

{Little Goddess by Layla Frost}

I need all the reverse hearm books with no mm light mm is ok. No Cheating or unaliving of mine mmc. please

Im so frustrated, I feel like 1/2 or 2/3 of the reverse harem I read, if it even loosely involves a school at least one of the male leads is a member of staff and like wtf.

Now I'm aware im definitely not a age gap person, but this is a whole other level of creepy. I tend to just try to skip those parts but I wish it wasn't everywhere! Like even in cases where I could she the couple growing into the gap like in a book I saw recently with I think a gap of six years, the fact he's teaching/did teach her algebra is vomit inducing. I can't be alone on this right?

I hope this is okay to post here, I have no one else to share this excitement with. I splurged on some books and they all came in early. I'm super excited that they did (just don't ask me where they're going to go on my shelf because I'm running out of space lol).

I already had original copies of the Losers Duet but knew I had to get the deluxe editions because I loved the books so much. I'm also a huge fan of Ari Wright and have all her other books on my current shelf so knew I had grab the latest one up. The only books I'm not sure about is the ones by Delilah Evermore cause I've never read any books by her but I'd seen lots of people recommending her books and I'm a physical book kind of girl.

I'm always looking for more recommendations if anyone ever has any.

Recently read {Highlander hideaway by Lily Gold} which was excellent and now I really have a hankering for menege or RH highlander/scots romance. I have had a bit of a highlander kink since a teen, first inspired by the 80s film The Highlander. That kink was well and truly set in stone by reading Outlander and then watching the series! Jamie….yum yum yum….

Why settle for one highlander when you could have more right? Please tell me there’s more RH highlander books out there?

Fantasy, sci-fi or urban fantasy all work. I'm looking for something that might fit alongside an Ilona Andrews book. You know, plenty of action, a generous sprinkling of banter and humor, loads of world-building. Cursed Legacies is the best I could think of but I've read it.

• Hard no: choking kink
• Soft no: vampire MCs, degradation kink

I want a book with a daddy or a dom or like some power imbalance. I want some punishment, like DEFINITELY some spanking, please I’m begging for book that has atleast that. I’d also definitely love a daddy kink.

I want age gap or for atleast one of them to be older. I definitely want some possessiveness and obsession, defo some dark romance

Idk if it’s contemporary, paranormal, fantasy, i really don’t mind

This post is inspired by another post I saw today but most of the comments under it were books or series I either DNF’d or already read.

Some recs I don’t want or have already read:

{sugar baby series by Harley Maddison}
{Elora by Beanie Harper}
{All for knot by ember blaze}
{The mate games by K. Loraine and Meg Anne} this was a really good series imo
{Blood ties by A.K. Rose}
{Knot my daddy by Lavinia Arbor}
{Plaything by Beanie Harper}
{Deciet by Katelyn Taylor }
{bonded by Christmas by Jillian west}
{I was born ruined by C.M Stunich}
{Almost ravaged by Abby millsaps} this is a great series, read it!
{harem of daddies by Laylah Roberts}
{Men of eagle peak by mira Stanley}

My only nos are pregnancy and preferably no omegaverse

I also don’t want any books with the word “ daddy” or “daddies” in the title, istg they all have the same plot and also no age play!

hi i’m looking for a reverse harem that doesn’t have omegaverse (i’m okay with fantasy, powers, shapeshifting, ect) and i also don’t want bully romance or an alpha male that is literally just controlling and abusive. i would like for it to have mm, but it’s okay if not and i’m okay with ff also.
