I like fantasy, sci-fi and dystopias mostly! I don't often read romance, and generally dislike smut, because why does it rarely make sense? Also not a non-fiction person.

    Thoughts from 34% - footnotes thoughts

    I feel like the footnotes are the product of a ‘misunderstood/failed’ kill your darlings. Some of these could just be in the actual text or just deleted altogether. Why are they footnotes? I don’t like footnotes, so I might just be biased, but I don’t think they add much and some of the ones I’ve read just kind of help the reader understand what they should already be thinking about if they read between the lines/understand the book.

    Might just be me.
