  • AI assisted reviews?

    I hate AI in general and AI reviews in particular. Not only are they useless to a reader, their production probably consumes a lot of water. Shame Goodreads and Netgalley do nothing to catch them. Page bound's anti-AI stance is why I joined in the first place. That and pretty badges lol.

    To the point. While browsing discover tab I've found at least 3 profiles with people whose reviews sound like AI. (Writing a lot without saying anything of note, It's not A or B it's C, a lot of sophisticate words that aren't used anywhere else in their profile) At least two of them where native speakers so it's not language barrier case. All three are real people so idk what happened here. I am not naming them because I am not certain they asked AI to write reviews for them and I don't want to encourage bullying . Maybe they bounced their ideas of AI, asked AI to correct their review which sounds marginally better. I am not sure how many of them there are. I found it odd to say the least to find them on Pagebound of all places.

    Did you find anything similar? I hope it's not me being paranoid lol.

    Besides, you know how hard it is to find an affordable one bedroom in central Cairo?

    this is my second-time reading it. themes of colonialism and (forced) religion. i really loved the discussion and opposition of femininity and (toxic) masculinity.

  • necromancy being popular?

    I feel like I've seen sooo many books lately that are new releases and are about necromancy. Two books that come to mind are Deathly Fates (happen to have an arc for this) and Deathbringer, among several others I've seen when just scrolling upcoming releases.

    Is this a newer subject for fantasy stories, or has this always been popular and I've just been living under a rock lol?

    Fatma is a badass and I fear I could develop a crush if she keeps this up 🫦🤭
