So I found out about last year's hockey romance booktok drama
Переглядів 1,4 тис.8 місяців тому
So... I found out about last year's hockey drama between Booktok influencer, Kierra Lewis, and the Seattle Krakens hockey team. One thing I forgot to mention is the author, Emily Rath, made a statement to the team to stop creating booktok content in order to protect the players as they were not prepared to cater to the audience they were making videos for.

    Currently, MS Word is $179.99 to own your copy, but you have to allow MS to spy on your work through the cloud. Or get the monthly rate to use MS Word like Google Docs... I got WPS Writing app for free which does the same thing as MS Word. But some features are pay-walled by Premium.

    I use NovelAi to randomly generate the lore, names, and locations. Because that would take me forever to think up. Plus my names would sound childish, dumb, or boring. I just re-generate the text if it repeats, not on topic, or too dumb.

And now you're saying that it's incredibly hard to read...... I feel like it won't work lmao. Unless the language+vocabulary in itself isn't part of the hardships you're talking about. 20:02 now you're speaking my language

    Thanks for taking the time to make this review. I have a few thoughts... The whole "trigger warning' thing is a bit ridiculous. There are always going to be things in the world that make someone uncomfortable. You can't nerf everything for everyone. Sometimes you just have to be uncomfortable, and you'd be surprised how inspiration and growth can arise. This younger generation really needs some thicker skin. Johnny is absolutely one of, if not the best part of this book. He's a poet, and unabashedly masculine. Try not to let the post modernest "toxic masculinity" garbage get in the way of you embracing such a well written dynamic character that is so similar to all of us just for the sake of virtue signaling. This book is not difficult to read, and not the mind bender everyone makes it out to be. It's just a book, like any other book, but written in a very creative way. People really don't need "advice" on how to read it other than start at the beginning and just read it.

    Thanks for the review. Watched a few and was still on the fence about buying it, but after watching this one, decided it'd be worth it. From what I've heard so far (from the reviews), and briefly read, the book feels like an ode to the Argentinian writer Jorge Luis Borges. I'd recommend the short story collection "Labyrinths". There's a story about a coin that causes people to become obsessed with it, and induces insomnia. And there's another about a secret society that creates a fictional country that begins to take over reality. And finally, there's a story about the labyrinth in Crete, which has been described as a "literary puzzle". Interestingly, Borges became blind as does a character in the HOL. Anyway, there's a recent edition with an introduction by William Gibson that I'd recommend. Liked.

    1: You *need* a physical copy of the book for the full experience. 2: POE's second album, 'Haunted', is a companion piece made for the book by the author's sister, and enhances the overall trip. 3: At your own discretion, being in an altered state of mind can also add to the fun.

    I really enjoyed Johnny's parts. It's a nice break from the dry academic style that some of the Navidson Record has. Also, don't be discouraged, it's not an easy read, but it's not as dense as it seems. Take away the formatting on the text and the index and you have maybe 50% or less of what would otherwise be around 700 pages. Also, this book has pictures and that's just awesome. I never considered reading it other than in a conventional way, reading the foot notes as well along the way. It's definitely doable.
