I just saw a Goodreads review say that this book was too political and far too unrealistic and everyone was flat as cardboard. Tell me you didn't get the point without telling me you didn't get the point. That made me RAGE because you would've GOTTEN it if you'd had basic reading comprehension!

Look, I get it if you didn't like the writing style, it's not a one size fits all, but you didn't like the book for ENTIRELY WRONG REASONS! A book being too political is the dumbest excuse for disliking a book that I've ever heard. And if you say it's "unrealistic"—look at our world now. Palestine, Congo, Syria, AND more. They don't have to be games like THG, but clearly, hundreds of thousands of children and innocents are dying. If you cannot see that, then society is doomed.

In wooing Bella, Edward may have had an advantage over Jacob when it comes to scent, but Jacob literally has other tricks up his sleeve…in the form of his well-toned biceps.

this book is so unserious lmao

Hey yall! I was talking with my friend earlier and we were discussing things about book adaptations or adaptations in general that we liked! I was wondering if yall had any shows or movies adapted from books or stories that you actually enjoyed? We were talking about how much we loved the Hunger Games movies, even though they left some things out, and the Haunting of Hill House show on Netflix!

I'm having such a hard time getting myself to pick up this book after setting it down. The characters are not developing aside from realizing some terrible things and then wallowing about it and we're not learning anything about Sciona helping to building the expansion or whatever they've been doing in the lab for 7 weeks. The two mains have no chemistry, so I'm guessing it's not leaning toward romance...like, what is actually going to happen? Nothing has really made me care yet--Sciona doesn't even seem like the type to do anything about what she found out--either that or she'll crash out and Thomil will take the fall or something.

I have found great content creators on BookTok and discovered books that have forever changed me. I also read the worst book ever. So tell me, what was the worse rec you got from Book Tok?

No Colleen Hoover or SJM. Let's be a bit controversial

i'm really intrigued by Constanta's relationship to God and her religion as someone who has a very similar, often times teeth-bared-then-nuzzling-kitten approach to faith. can't imagine it from an undead perspective obviously (as much as i would love to never have to eat actual food, not sleep, and live forever) but it's amazing how transferable such feelings are, which just goes to show how diverse and homogenous literature and the human condition are!
