Never Ever Get Rid Of Me (countryhumans x f.reader) (part 1) by meilley_

One of the shittiest book you can read, or maybe one of your favorites. During WWII. So basically Axes and Allies. Good luck, there are 2 parts. Oh and, be aware that you can find hard topics (like lemons, or depression (Idk if it's in this book or in the second part), and... I don't recall the rest, but heh, read it if you want). No pressure, and take your time. This book is shitty, really, but I find it nice when I was writing it as a teenage. Still one, but not for so long... damn..... ⚠spoiler list alert⚠ List of what we got for now here: UK France Switzerland Third Reich Fascist Italy URSS Japanese Empire Poland Japan Italy West and East Germany And I forgot about the others... But yeah, you have some countryhumans

Downtown Love (18+) by AllKpop0

******************** ⚠️🔞 This book is a series of SHORT stories. Each chapter is different, different characters, and different scenarios. I think diversity/inclusivity is key so, I have included all kinds of communities which can be found in the description/trigger warnings in the beginning of the story. 18+ short stories ✨ Fair warning though none of these scenarios will happen in real life. Men are actually garbage in real life so, if you get high standards from reading my book, I warned you I don't know what to tell you. Not going to lie, these stories are mainly tailored to me, I dream about it and write it down so I can remember and re-read the spicy concoction my mind makes up. If y'all like it, I love it. Thanks for reading!
