    I'm so glad I'm not the only one who doesn't get how Fourth Wing is so popular. The fantasy aspects are so underdeveloped and poorly done and the romance aspect isn't romance, it's just Violet obsessing over how hot Mr. Edgy is, and the whole thing felt very YA but in a shitty wattpad way

      The whole thing felt very YA and cringy I couldn’t believe it was marketed as an adult book

    there is something very intriguing about someone you dont know reviewing a book you never heard of and you probably would have never paths crossed "normally", but im convinced if the book (whatever topic it is) is really good it will trigger your curiosity anyway and maybe you will read it someday somewhere, hidden...

    Hi Meg, hope you are well. Sometimes a good rant makes you feel good. And after all, “They” made you do it!
    I just got back from my local library and you won’t believe but one of the six holds was “House at the bottom of a lake”! Based on your advice I didn’t even take it out of my book bag. Funny, Malerman’s “Daphne” wasn’t bad. Oh, well. Take care!

    A bunch of the books/authors you hate just won or were nominated for the Goodreads Choice Awards. As an author, I'm really starting to see how corrupt or rigged the system is for books and publishing. Stephen King won the horror category with a short story collection... dude hasn't written anything good in years! Your Sarah J. Maas books won the Romantasy categories.

      My interpertion is its a lense view of a mental illness. It says what one at the end of the book. It also has alot of symbolism in it representing the main characters mental health state and her relationships. Its a book either you get it or you dont. I read alot of discussions about it in order for it to fully make sense.
