I’m so disappointed by the portrayal of Frankenstein and his “monster” in general pop culture at this point. This is far more complex, compelling and interesting! I’m loving this.

Hi all, I know this question isn't book related but since this is an anti-ai platform I was wondering if anyone knows any good Pinterest alternatives. I'm speaking because OpenAI is looking into buying Pinterest and aside from being an AI firm they are also being ultra mega evil and gave $25 million to the Trump administration.

I really love pinterest, I get all of my clothing, book, poetry, fanart, music recommendations from it but I cannot stand the thought of using and OpenAI product. Does anyone have any alternatives?

Hey hey, so i love tandom reading a physical book and listening to the audiobook, it helps me stay engage ( adhd and dyslexia can make that difficult at times) but im stugling to find a platform to listen to audiobooks, spotify has a short 15h limit and is morrally awful, audible is over priced and possibly worse from an ethics point of view. So that leads me to my question.

What do yall listen to audiobooks on ? *i live in Australia WA to be more specific

This is not the place for a anyone who dosnt think audiobooks count 💚

Does anyone else get unreasonably upset when someone DNFs a book and rates it 1 star because they didnt reach the point of growth in the book? Like, I love books with unlikeable or weird or complicated main characters. That means that for the first half of a lot of books you don’t like them! And for some reason people think this is the author glorifying their thoughts or agreeeing.

I just feel like we need to stop thinking that portraying a mindset means agreeing or glorifying it, and that if a character is problematic it means the book is BAD. And if you can’t make that distinction then maybe you shouldn’t be seeking out books that say they have a problematic or complicated main character or contains things that you don’t agree with. I get upset when a great book gets a one star review because someone couldn’t trust that the character might grow or even that there’s a point being made intentionally by letting them be problematic.

Edit to clarify I am totally fine with DNFing it’s the giving a bad rating without even reading the full book OR condemning a book that might be very well written but has a character that they disagree with that annoys me more.
