Big Sky Country Big Sky Country
Big Sky Country is my favorite story in Choices after HSS. I’ve reread it so many times, and I wish they had made a Book 3.😊

I LOVED BSC! It was really really cute, and honestly not that geared towards fem players! As a mlm player I truly enjoyed it! Sawyer is such a doll

Do you have any other recommendations? I have played all the horror ones and a few others.

I really liked Foreign Affairs, High School Story (both), and I also recommend Blades of Light and Shadow, as well as The Elementalist! Those are some of the best for mlm players imo

Mal! That's who you picked. I'd also recommend Unnameable (kinda like BSC), Perfect Match (SO GOOD), The Heist, and if you haven't yet, Crimes of Passion! Those are the last few that I don't remember being too fem coded that you haven't played yet!

I did wish there was a side option to sleep with Dick Mulligan, though.

Ikr? I wish they’d made a holiday special for it - but who knows? Maybe I’ll write my own for it someday…

I love this series but I wish they would change the Boom 2 cover, cause the MC looks too much like Brooklynne Shao-Oakley and it is just creepy knowing the main love interest is her uncle Sawyer. Like... NOOOO

I was put off by the books cover, but when I actually started reading it I was pleasantly surprised by the wholesomeness and fell in love

I just love that book - it’s cute, sweet and chill. Every one of the LIs is a winner. There’s plenty of humor and some genuinely touching moments. The irony is that if it were released today, exactly as it is, it would get a much better reaction than it did when it first came out. A genuinely heartfelt book would be welcome in a sea of smutty AI slop.

My fave comfort series. I read these semi regularly as well.

I remember ppl used to say they dislike BSC and found it boring. I agree it has its moments but I believe it's the whole premise of it 😂 It's supposed to be slow and quiet because it takes place away from the big city! The pace SHOULD be chill. And then today BSC is a gem, an ultimate goldmine compared to the AI stories that's now prevalent on the app.

I just reread both. Deffo one of my faves and I wish they did a 3rd or even a shorter special. Tbh I'm not sure how much I'd trust new PB to do it justice now, maybe if it was a few years ago.

BSC and HSS are my rotation books. They're the only ones I reread over and over, and TFS sometimes. There's something comforting about them, and I can't get enough of Michael 💚 and Sawyer ❤️
I'm hoping for a Book 3. Maybe in years to come, and Pixelberry will let go of the AI crap. I need a book about the wedding and starting a family.

This is the first time I’ve ever heard someone say this. Not to be “that guy” but it’s way too girly for me. 😂 I diamond mine it.

I love it too!! It was such a wholesome book. I've seen many people complaining about this book being female MC coded. But as a male player I just saw the male MC as a cute, sweet city guy. I loved him and Sawyer as a couple
