    "thoughts from %"

    Hello, I am very slightly inebriated and curious about your thoughts on this topic:

    When I scroll through a forum, particularly a busy forum, and am met with like dozens of spoilered posts labeled "thoughts from x%" (without further elaboration) I feel like I am much less likely to interact with the posts! If I could see at a glance which ones might be about topics I might want to engage with, I would be more likely to click and do so. Even vaguebooking is an improvement on the automated heading in my opinion. When I noticed this reaction in myself it changed how I write my own forum posts and I went back and put titles on my previous posts although tbh this is as much for my own convenience, in the event I need to look back and refer to something!

    How do you feel about the automated titles? Do they deter you from interacting? Do you prefer them??? Please dish!!

    EDIT: I am not opposed to the % mark itself. This is how I've started titling my posts: "something related to the topic (x%, pg#)"

    I haven’t had the pleasure of reading many Greek retellings yet and did not remember a lot about the origins of Medusa.

    The story portrayed in this version drew me in using scenarios and language that were easy to understand. Greek mythology is vastly intricate and can be hard to follow but I had no issue following along here. I really enjoyed how the story was broken down as we see Medusa transcend through life as she starts to understand the world she’s never experienced.

    The build up and development of Medusa’s worldview and morality was interesting to read about. Also, highly recommend reading the author’s note as well.

    Thoughts on the audiobook? 🎧

    I'm (slowly) listening to the audiobook and I find the way the narrator does male voices quite... unattractive, LOL. Especially Julian, he sounds so smarmy and nasally (every time he says "Crimson" I feel an ick, LOL). Was wondering if I'm the only one who feels this way 🙈
