There was a post a day or so ago about how commenting on people's posts in the forum with like "everything isn't as it seems..." or like vague things like that, as well as going back and commenting on your own forum post like "I can't believe I thought this!" Or other similar things, are all still spoilers!
But also, if a book has a movie/tv adaptation and you mention plot points that happen in the movie before it appears in the book, that's a spoiler! If you're rereading a book, and you comment something that spoils something later on (ex "i can't believe i thought character X was dead when i first read it!") That's a spoiler š
I'm reading a middle grade fantasy rn and its low stakes but i'm having fun and went to the forum to literally have someone ruin like. A huge part of the book. Like i said it's low stakes but come on, it's really disappointing! There aren't many "reveals" in the book and since it's a middle grade fantasy I can predict a lot of things, but this was something that didn't occur to me which would've been a really fun reveal. I've literally had to report 2 spoiler comments in the last 2 days š«

Idk. I feel like this could have been alot shorter because it kept repeating the same things over and over. I like the idea of just saying "let them" in your head when someone is doing something annoying but there's alot of things that this can't apply to. Yes, you shouldn't let a family members nagging or back handed compliments ruin your day or effect your life, but just saying "let them" when someone you can't get away from is being an asshole to you is not the same thing. Saying let them isn't going to magically fix things and make you immune to other people's words and actions. If it's random people sure, yea it works but if it's people that your always surrounded by that you can't easily get away from it's not that simple. Alot of this was the author explaining how she used to be an asshole to people or would over react as a grown adult. No hate to the author but if it takes you until your mid 40s to 50s for you to realize that you have control over your own emotions, and that you cant control how other people feel or act, I'm probably not gonna take your emotional advice to heart. This is something I've understood since I was 12. It's insane to me that this is a concept that someone never understood till their 40s. I was one of those kids that was told by adults that I was emotionally mature for my age growing up, but this entire book just seemed like common sense to me. Not some revolutionary idea. Everyone has their personal opinions tho. I can easily see how this book could help people.
Also the amount of times she repeated "in this chapter you will learn how to use the let them theory on insert specific thing" in the first half of the book was driving me insane.

I can't take the audiobooks narrator seriously š Shes doing a good job but accents are NOT her strong suit. I appreciate her dedication to the bit with her frog impression tho, it caught me off guard lol.
