Been struggling with my anxiety and depression lately. Just want you to know while I’m in bed fighting an anxiety attacks you help me escape and smile. You make it easier to have a better day ❤
Me starting reading dark romance by reading Hauting & Hunting Adeline first and you put it in the heavy category. Right now I'm reading The Mindf series.
1. Sinner - for beginner to test limits 2. Darling Venom 3. Brutal Prince - light dark romance 4. The predator - from dark verse serie 5. Sinners - Marry the uncle? 💀 6. The sweetest obvilion - The Made series 7. Scarred - Never After series, light dark romance 8. Mindfuck series - Not much light, have 5 series in a book 9. Her Soul to take - comedy, passionate mc? 10. The pucking wrong number - hockey dark romance, unhinged, funny? 11. There are no Saint - serial Killer, both are crazy 12. Still breathing - Sad, traumatizing, very dark. 13. Kill switch, Nightall - Not very dark 14 - Twisted Pride, Twisted Emotion. 15. Dark Note 16. God of Malice 17. Brutal Obsession - 18. Haunting Adeline - Darkest
Bro I think that "The Maddest Obsession" was the best one in the Made series. Could you reccomend more books like Made series I enjoyed reading that series.
oml i'm so glad you posted this !! i've been trying to find dark romances that are actually dark enough for me (after reading brutal birthright, never after, punk 57, etc. which i personally found too light for me) i will FOR SUREEEEEEEE be reading brutal obsession and cat and mouse duet next !! thank you larry
I'm just here to say I love that there are still people who can love and appreciate dark romance and more transgressive reads because it seems like so many people nowadays don't care about nuance or feel if you enjoy something "bad" in fiction it means you think it's okay in real life so while most people make videos hating on dark romance, it's refreshing to see you do the opposite.
Bestie ❤ Thank you for introducing me to Rinaverse. I went through her ENTIRE universe in the beginning for the year. Legacy of Gods is everything to me (Killian, Jeremy, & Nikolai). Patiently waiting for Eli’s book.🥰💙 I was a solely a romantasy reader. Thanks to you I get to try out the dark verse and I’m loving the picks so far 🫶
OMG GIRL I STARTED WATCHING THE ROOKIE BECAUSE OF YOU AND NOW I CANT STOP WATCHING AND IM ALREADY ON S2 AND I CANT WAIT FOR THE BRADFORD AND LUCY THING TO START?!!?
Love what you said about people should read the trigger warnings before going into the book and then end up not only hating the book but also hating the person who enjoys them 🤧
Girl you are hilarious love watching especially when you do the hauls and star crying with you lol .haunting Adeline is the best idk how people hate it. im obsessed with Zade and Adeline I need more like this im going to read some of your recs ❤
Oh Larry. It’s because of you that I’m now addicted to dark romances. I read the mindf*ck series and was immediately hooked to the genre. Now I’m reading “all he’ll ever be”( it’s safe to say that willow winters is now my favorite author) and I will say with confidence that I will absolutely read anything you recommend. You’re the best! Ily
*@@LarryReadsits being 10+ days I'm asking for Bellandi crime syndicate series by Adalide Forrest. Mafia romance, especially book 3 main lead went crazy for female lead who's husband was a dirty cop , he unalives him gives them a year to cope up the grieve. And now comes to get what his*
BESTIE! I’ve started reading the Magnolia Parks Universe last week and I’m almost done with Daisy Haites! I’m so EXCITED to start Magnolia Parks: Long Way Home!! IM OBSESSED!!
26:13 oooo God of Malice was soooo entertaining but it was my introduction to dub-con. 29:19 I LOVE this series. I read so much of it with my hand over my mouth in shock.
As a guy I find myself loving Haunting Adeline its so fucking good!. Its my first romp in dark romance. A friend of mine from work recommended it to me me because of my quirky personality.
Once you have stepped foot into the dark, you never turn back! I’ve truly become obsessed with dark romance books. The latest book I read was: Lights Out by Nevessa Allen, and oh my god I loved it❤ So, now I have a whole block of books arriving in the next month or so, and all of them are dark romance. Like, I’m OBSESSED😂😂❤
That’s the most astonishing dark romance video I’ve ever watched. Thank you for the recs! I loved a lot of your favorites, hence I will try your suggestions 🙌 Can’t wait to watch another video of yours
Thank you Larissa❤😩🤧 for being the amazing sunshine you are. And thank you for speaking up on the situation with people are allow to read whatever they want and not to be judge. That including giving a good message about dark romance as something fun to read but not something to allow in real life. ✨️💗🙌 Also about people are underage shouldn't be reading 18+ dark romance books
!!! So happy to have a dark romance guide! The first dark romance book I ever read was Haunting Adeline. I was seeing it all over insta and i didn't know any better lol. Several times over the course of reading that I would say to myself, "well that's enough reading for today." A few of the books you mentioned are on my list so i'm happy to know where they fall :)
Video idea 🫶🏻 A updated addicted/calloway-adding in bad reputation duet and which ones are your absolute favorites. Kind of like you did with the MZ video😊
My favorite dark romance books is all he’ll ever be. I read it in January and STILL haven’t stopped thinking about it. I definitely recommend!!! If you read it it’d be so awesome if you’d do a reading vlog on it!!!
As soon as I saw u recommend God of malice for the first time I immediately read it, that’s how much you sold me on the book and I fell in love as expected but I don’t read series cause I have commitment issues💀 so I didn’t continue the series but then I saw your God of fury review, and I was like MM romance count me in and of course I fell in love with it as well and it is now one my favorite book as well. It was the last book I read in 2023 then I immediately reread it January 2024, as my first book of the year so I trust ur recs 100%
Omg same like I just can't bring myself to continue the dark verse because I'm way too obsessed with Tristan and Morana, I just can't bring myself to read the third book😂😂😂😂
I am not a dark reader girlie at all but I watched this whole video because I just love your energy and vibe!😂 As a fluffy rom-com/emotional reader, I'd love a video of recommendations for closed door/minimal spice books with great chemistry and tension in them!💕 Love you videos so much🥰
OMG! I am so happy I came across your page!😍😍 I LOVE your bubbly and fun personality! Been thinking about getting into dark romance but just did not know where to start and you gave me a good chunk of recommandations! I am going to start with Her Soul to Take! Super excited! 😁
I just found your vids and I just have to say your personality is so fun! You had me laughing and entertained from the beginning. I’m definitely subscribing. I read a lot of dark romance already. I think your darkest is on my list as just mid dark 😂but this was a fun video.
I litterally started with Haunting Adeline and i do NOT regret it at all. I litterally go "meh that isnt so bad as haunting adeline" by other books🤣 also new watcher and absolutly loved this video and the rest.❤ Litterally took notes💕🤣✍🏼
i appreciate the disclaimer at the beginning, i like dark romance but i feel like not enough people really warn you when recommending these books that some can get a biiiiit...... grapey. no one should just go in blind thinking its gonna be a fun lil romance and get triggered. also would not want younger readers to grow up thinking some things are okay so i appreciate you saying that part too
oh and yeah thanks for the recs larry, currently im just not in my soft cutr little romcoms mood. i needed these recs and im sure im going to eat all of these up🤭
my entrance to dark romance was haunting adeline & i fell in love. dark romance is absolutely my genre. the darker the story the betterrrr 🖤 especially if the spice is spicinggg🌶️🖤
I started off with fifty shades and proceeded with satan’s affair (0.5 cat & mouse duet, not necessary to read haunting Adeline, but I wanted the whole package and I fucking loved it) 💀
Loved this book! "Denim Venom" is a thrilling ride from start to finish. The blend of action, suspense, and unexpected twists kept me on the edge of my seat throughout. The protagonist's journey from ordinary citizen to unlikely hero is both captivating and relatable. The author's vivid descriptions and dynamic storytelling transported me into the heart of the action. If you're a fan of fast-paced thrillers with a touch of noir, "Denim Venom" is a must-read. Get ready for a wild ride that you won't soon forget!
This is truly the ultimate guide and I LOVED it! This is definitely a video I'll come back to over and over. Loved so many of these and the ones I haven't read, I'm starting right now 🖤🖤🖤
I would really recommend the Stoneview Series by Lola King. One of my fav, it’s also spicy, kinda enemies to lovers, then they hate each other and then love each other kind of book.
I started with haunting Adeline and I have to say that it probably was a mistake but I loved it so much that I read it in one sitting. I have thrown myself into the deep end and I don't regret it at akk

I just wanted to say that Hunting Adeline is much darker than Haunting Adeline… I had to stop reading because I was so triggered
